You did something wrong, or your compile is more CPU bound than storage bound.
Haha, if I change the "x" to the expected "p" I get blocked by Cloudflare when I save the draft manually. Also if the draft is autosaved, the Cloudflare block appears and the autosave fails.
I have triple tilde Github code fences above and below the three lines of code.
No problem with Cloudflare blocking if I backslash-escape the "p", as is sometimes required with ikiwiki, but the backslash shows up in the preview, and presumably in the post:
If I try backticks instead of code fences, I get a weird one space indent in the first line and the line break between lines two and three is removed. But the Cloudflare block is bypassed.
Backticks above and below the three lines of code:
tom@darkstar:~$ grep wheel /etc/group wheel:x:10:root,redacted,redacted,redacted tom@darkstar:~$
Backtick at the beginning of line one and at the end of line three:
tom@darkstar:~$ grep wheel /etc/group wheel:x:10:root,redacted,redacted,redacted tom@darkstar:~$
Backticks at the beginning and end of each line:
tom@darkstar:~$ grep wheel /etc/group
wheel:x:10:root,redacted,redacted,redacted
tom@darkstar:~$
Eeks! The last one looks as expected. No Cloudflare block either.
So, finally, this is how any Darkstar Neighbor can see who has root. Darkstar Neighbors see it without redaction, of course.
tom@darkstar:~$ ls -l /etc/group
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 830 Feb 7 19:45 /etc/group
tom@darkstar:~$
Wipe that server clean, install Proxmox and provide the paying users with a VM. Seems like the most fair path. The network where your server is colo'd is good.
I'm more surprised someone hasn't signed up purely to fuck with the server and the other users.
Wait so if someone else also has root can they just take control of your VPS?
Yes. The idea is that people who sign up must pinky swear to never do anything naughty.
that never ends well
MetalVPS is a sorority.
MetalVPS sisters can trust each other.
I’m sure it’s fine if care is taken to select new node-mates.

More about the Cloudflare block:
A few posts above I tried Github triple tilde codefences and also backticks. In my dreams last night I remembered that I did not try the html "code" and "pre" tags.
This morning, both the "code" and the "pre" tags (with appropriate "less than" and "greater than") resulted in a Cloudflare block when I tried to save a draft of the subject code snippet.
It seems like the only expression of the subject code that gets past the Cloudflare block without causing formatting issues might be backticks before and after each line.
What simple thing am I missing? I really wanna be able to put code into my posts! I don't want to have to convert it to a graphical image.
Maybe I could encode my post's code snippets in base64? Then everybody easily could decode them! Yaaay!

Hmm. Maybe I could encode the entire contents of all my posts in base64. Hehe!
Friendly greetings from Sonora!
What about rot13?
