I saw this on Dave Winer’s Friendfeed stream yesterday. It’s just too good not to post, even though its staged. Some adult language in there, and one NSFW image at the end.
The website for this show is usually at www.thewebsiteisdown.com, which is currently down and redirecting visitors directly to the video on Blip.TV.








See all



Hilarious. People with no technical skills always want some sort of miracle.
haha this is awesome
THEWEBSITEISDOWN.COM
Here is the mistake in the video.

If the server was at the data center and he had to call in to reboot it, he would not have been able to log on with a VNC client at the point of init 5.
The vnc server would not have been started yet.
Besides the point that the VNC client only does X and SSH only does shell logins, it does not give you virtual consoles into init processes. Unless he had a really, really long VGA wire from his station into the datacenter.
Hey, TC’s layout got a little change… added a TC network dropdown menu.
I’m sure not many people would remember this logo…

There have now been several instances of Mike on FriendFeed. Are you ready to admit your love of FF yet?
Chris shut up you noob lol
Who gives a shit
it wouldnt be the case with google lol
Http://www.themostpowerfulcompany.com can confirm that
awesome
@Chris
I suggest we start an online petition IMMEDIATELY requesting the author of this video to address the grievous errors you’ve pointed out!
I shudder to think what might happen if your blurry screenshot of a satiric youtube video falls into the wrong hands!
hilarious!
Chris: its not VNC
That was awesome!
Funny video. Chris, please never sit near me at a movie theater.
AWESOOOOME
And it happens pretty often.
This rocks.
Chris - don’t be that guy.
This is is brilliant!
“What’s your password?”
“It’s just the letter ‘a’”
ahhahahahhah omg.
Strange yet hilarious !
I mean…it’s tough to believe that there exist such screwed up guys as well…
But who cares……
Come on TC…..Spiders and crawlers can’t find anything fresh here for the last few hours..Post some good stuff for them
Plz don’t repeat such vids.they better appear on other stupid blogs..not TC
@14,
OK, it’s remote KVM where they tunnel the scan lines over SSH. I just remembered about that. Sorry. I don’t use that feature because it costs extra.
That was fricking hilarious
very grounding…

Chris continues to be that guy.
I love the Skype multitasking.
What a pathetic life “web dudes” have.
How many times did you reboot?
“You always tell me to do it three” –sales guy
classic!
2 Chris about the mistake:
Man who cares! In movies people also don’t die for real! Most of the times…
This video is awesome! It sometimes irritates me so much when some sales guy who once created an email account talks tech and being real! I almost want to smack this person across the face with the Computer for dummies book…
“I saw this on Dave Winer’s Friendfeed stream yesterday. ”
FF tipping point FTW
Hilarious and awesome. Unfortunately though, like the movie Office Space this video can hit a bit too close to home, if you get what I mean…
Hey Mike,
I guess you aren’t visiting Twitturly as often as you said you would.
This made twitturly a week ago. Here are two links showing how active they still are, they both have over 160 tweets in total.

http://twitturly.com/urlinfo/u.....f853314a3/
We do have RSS feeds, maybe that would help you out a little…
sounds like my life story..
and at Chris… wow… it’s a video, chill.
The best spoof video of the summer so far. Unfortunately blip tv cannot keep up with the traffic, youtube posted below
I guess readers cannot embed videos: http://www.youtube.com/v/BcQ7RkyBoBc
That is so good I just stand it!!!!!!
Hilarious!
That could not be more accurate if they tried! Absolutely brilliant!
Cheers - Eric
That looks like your desktop, Mike.
Hilarious video…”salesforce.com is on the right testicle”..brilliant
Chris… I’m gonna need you to come in on Saturday… mkaaaaaaaay?
Total ripoff of the “You Suck at Photoshop” series…
Or as we say at McKinsey: Do not try to explain by conspiracy what can indeed be explained by simple human ignorance.
Brilliant and sad at the same time. It’s so close to reality…
Cherio from Germany!
That was one of the funniest f’ing things I’ve seen all week.
This is priceless…. LoL
thats well funny
That’s fucking awesome!!!!!
“… there is not arrange as a penis menu item…” - I thought I’d probably die laughing
I think this one has been around for a while.
