What to delete before returning a dedicated server?

You can try fdisk and delete all partitions, and poweroff the server. DC always reloads OS before giving the same server to new client. source

Free to delete a user?

I am currently having trouble getting my membership removed from a phpBB forum. I keep getting told that its because the person running it will have to pay for this feature to remove me. Is that true and if not how would I get removed from the forum? source

Did you delete or keep the AVP demo?

I deleted it directly after joining my first game. Setting up the controls was a serious pain as well-- did they not think that binding the same key to multiple functions could be a bad thing? I mean come on, if the key is already bound just unbind it like any other game. source

How much debt do you have and how fast are you paying it off?

My issue with Ramsey is he doesn't take interest rates into account. As long as you have discipline it makes sense to consider interest rates when paying things off. source

Why doesn't delete set the pointer to NULL?

You can have multiple pointers pointing to that memory. It would create a false sense of security if the pointer you specified for the delete got set to null, but all the other pointers did not. A pointer is nothing more than an address, a number. It might as well be an int with a dereference operation. My point is you would have to also scan every single pointer to find those that are referencing the same memory you just deleted, and null them out as well. It would be computationally intense to scan all the pointers for that address and null them out, because the language is not designed for that. source
