Warnings!!!
Forever Cluelessโข administrator @Not_Oles has only "limited technical skills. . . ." ๐ @Not_Oles frequently messes up! ๐ฑ
MetalVPS has no billing panel and no server control panel. It's traditional, command line terminal via ssh until @Not_Oles or you install whatever you want. ๐
There are two preinstalled test KVM VPSes made with bashvm. You can get a juicy KVM NAT VPS into which you can ssh and install whatever Open Source software you want.
Sometimes trusted MetalVPSians might or might not get sudo on Potassium, or KVM group membership, etc. ๐๐๐
MetalVPS has no onboarding and no knowledge base. โ๏ธ
Account delivery might take awhile! ๐ด
Not for business use! Intended especially for computer learning and fun! ๐ค
Occasional reboots are guaranteed, sometimes without advance notice! ๐บ VPSes can be set to restart automatically following reboot.
If you have a special need for stability during a period of time, please let @Not_Oles know.Please make your own redundant, offsite backups! It's easy to download or sync or clone your backup to a safe place. Please also check to make sure that you actually can restore from your backups! ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Please think of your MetalVPS account and all MetalVPS servers as ephemeral! Our Node might blow up! ๐ฅ At any random second @Not_Oles or maybe you might reboot or even reinstall the Node! ๐ธ Or you or @Not_Oles might decide to cancel. ๐น
Other MetalVPSians probably will see your name, your location, your account name, the processes you are running, and much other information. So, please do not put confidential information on the server. ๐ค

Help Wanted
- Helping @Not_Oles learn more about The C Programming Language would be super great, and, if using MetalVPS, would be preferred over financial payment. Possible projects might include the C homework from the MIT free online Operating Systems class, adding UTF-8 to the Elvis editor, and messing with a 64 bit version of Bell Labs / Vita Nuova Inferno OS.
