What's (are) the funniest/stupidest way(s) you've broken your linux setup?

Tinkering is all fun and games, until it’s 4 am, your vision is blurry, and thinking straight becomes a non-option, or perhaps you just get overly confident, type something and press enter before considering the consequences of the command you’re about to execute… And then all you have is a kernel panic and one thought...

caseyweederman,

Like he and Merry wouldn’t have set it off in the Shire out of curiosity

caseyweederman,

!Dog: Yes, I wish that my owner’s life would be as short as mine is!<

caseyweederman,

I’m baffled when companies that self-host DNS don’t have DNS-level adblocking.

caseyweederman,

Somebody please fork reprepro, there’s a super useful bugfix in one and a super useful feature in the other but I want both.

The bugfix is the zstd decompression-cancel race condition bug and the feature is multiple versions per package but they’re both super stale.
Maybe…
Maybe I can fork it…

caseyweederman,

All of the technically-minded posts I’ve read about systemd have been positive. The only detractors seem to be the ones with less technical knowledge, complaining about “the Unix philosophy” and parroting half-understood ideas, or worse, claiming that it’s bad because they have to learn it.

I know xorg has problems, but it was good to get some insight into why Wayland is falling short. Every argument I’ve seen in favor of Wayland has been “xorg bad”.

caseyweederman,

I get it.
But as far as I can tell, there are just two xorgs now, one of them is just spelled “Wayland”.

caseyweederman,

Well
I mean
That is how things start though

caseyweederman,

That’s the thing, paying bills doesn’t make you happy, it just temporarily eliminates the drop in happiness that would occur if you didn’t pay those bills.

caseyweederman,

I expected better from the comments of a community called “Uplifting”

caseyweederman,

Your post is just a list of reasons I will never be able to dance

caseyweederman,

you have forgotten the face of your father

caseyweederman,

Way to infantalize the people calling him out while excusing his childish tantrums.

caseyweederman,

So publicly, too. People have quit over it.

caseyweederman, (edited )

So glad he got therapy (after this post or very probably because of it).
That said, fuck Nvidia.

caseyweederman,

Uh yeah so uh
That green leafy thing
If you inhale it

FIFTY FUCKING YEARS BUCKO

and other totally arbitrary justifications for putting a drastically skewed selection of your citizens into enforced labor

caseyweederman,

Forget selling it.
I think they’re going to get everyone trapped in the ecosystem, and then they’ll start charging for access to the source.

caseyweederman,

Also… It’s included in all versions starting with Bookworm.
