Very amusing - and brings back memories of when a friend actually did remove the /bin (and IIRC the /lib64) a couple months ago :-)

Getting stuck on #/oops_print_file_contents - the command times out. Not sure if I'm missing a better solution or perhaps the server is overloaded

The command I tried was (here protected with rot13):

zncsvyr sbbone < zl-qvffregngvba.gkg; rpub "${sbbone[@]}"

A mild irritant is that the usual ^W (delete word to the left) instead closes tab in Firefox. Perhaps this could be prevented...?

Thanks! It looks like this is adding leading spaces on every line after the first one. The solutions can be viewed https://oops.cmdchallenge.com/#/oops_print_file_contents by clicking on "view solutions" if you want to compare.

For the ^W thing I'm not sure if it's possible to avoid it, I'll check it out.
