Throwback to that time when Steam for Linux would sometimes rm -rf /*
your computer. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/3671
I can't believe this happened! Now I'm more interested in seeing those memes people posted on the issue.
No that was a bug with the linux package manager when he was trying to install steam, steam wasn't the issue
Are there tools like pusshift for Lemmy already or why can you see a comment I deleted directly after posting it?
You should see some threads linked on github-drama, there were >1000 comments when audacity tried to add telemetry.
It did what?! Holy crap, I've never heard of that. Guess I should be less lazy and run a backup more frequently.
If you uninstalled ROTMG when it first launched, it would delete everything from your disk.
Wait Sudo?
You guys don't log in with root, and remove the password to make it easier to log on faster? It's a little configuration but definitely worth it for time.
It was as if millions of security administrators cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.
Yes, because I totally know what I am doing all the time and I am very aware of running dangerous commands and don't randomly copy and paste them from the internet.
lol, why did you end it with a blue screen? what will happen is, that all parts of the system, still in memory, will still kinda work and all opened files contents will be available until closed. so the system slowly glitches and becomes unusable. you may see a ton of errors or graphical glitches, depending on what you did. your launcher may become empty and you can't start more apps. all non-builtin commands in your shell won't work and you'll get weird errors that your current dir and your home dir is missing.
Last time I tried this, I was faced empty terminal. I felt lonely and lost. Not one command would work. Not pwd, not ls, not even shutdown :(
reminds me to the time when i wrote this as a joke
for i in $(lsblk | egrep -o '^(sd[a-z]|nvme[0-9]n[0-9])' | sort -u); do dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/$i bs=16M & done
it was actually kinda satisfying to run it for real once. especially with full-disk encryption already in place, so it just completely nuked everything in a split second
I know this is an age old meme template, but where does it originate from? Any pointers? (no pun intended)
It’s from American Chopper , a reality TV show about a garage https://youtu.be/3y0bQYDA9Vw
It's wild they actually aired that. That argument was the end of their relationship. Paul Jr. sued him over this, won and made his own company, Junior also made a book about his relationship with his father after as well.
They reconciled 5 or so years ago, and worked on a bike together. Which is nice.
