I once set up vpn on a remote system via ssh, and then wondered for a split second why my connection went down when the remote machine switched to being connected to the internet via the vpn.
Oh man, back when I was a network tech, I did something similar to a remote site’s router. My dumbass forgot to set the reboot after 15 minutes command as a failsafe (it reboots the device without saving in case your config kicks you out and you’re unable to remote back in due to a config change). Yep… Had to drive 6 hours round trip to fix that fuck up as it was an unmanned site.
me remembering I caused an outage yesterday by deleting nginx config 🤦♂️

That one was fun to recover from.

my worst nightmare
I’m sure we could beat that.
