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...

I’ve broken systems far too many times in the last 24 years, since Mandrake 6.x, to count:

  • I’ve dd a disk or more
  • I’ve rm *
  • I’ve chmod
  • I’ve brought down the network, with every intention tar it would come back - on a remote box
  • I’ve failed to RTFM far too many times
