King Robert Baratheon First of His Name remembering his first kill

Yes, its been a long time. But I still remember every line. You remember your first? Mine was some NGINX proxy at the Battle of Netflix.

My server took an arrow from my ISP so I was on foot, slogging through the configuration files. Tech support came running at me, this dumb corporate policy, thinking they could end the rebellion with a single policy blocking port forwarding.

I knocked them with the tailscale. Gods I was strong then. Caved in their double NAT. Probably shattered every iptable they had.

Stood over them, keyboard in the air. Right before I brought it down they said “Wait, wait!”

They never tell you how they all shit themselves. They don’t put that part in the songs. Stupid ISP.
