Or do the opposite for…relief
Fucking mv doc doc1
Fucking shutdown
fucking touch my-doc
please touch my-doc
🥺👉👈I thought for sure, for sure this was bullshit. For sure Linux doesn’t have a touch command. What could it possibly do.?
Changing timestamps and creating empty files…
Of course, that makes so much sense. 🤔
It does make sense! When you modify a file, you do “things” on it, you write it. So the minimum you can possibly do to a file to modify it, is “to poke it”: to touch it.
I wonder if you could make it sass you every so often to complete the effect.
Fucking shutdown
Chill my man. I’m on it.
Fuck will always be my alias to run sudo with the last command
There’s a project that automatically corrects common errors with your last command as well with the same name.
It sounds fun and “magic” but it is hella scary to blindly run some “fixed” command
I believe it does take confirmation via the ENTER key.
Shorthand that works anywhere:
sudo !!
please remove the French language pack
please rm -fr /*
I might actually do this, it seems nice.
suddenly makes the xkcd much more wholesome too
This from the OS that made me have to do a search for “how to kill children”.
more typing. if i set up an alias for it, i’d rather set up su
pls
side note: My all-time favorite linux utility is “fuck”. When you make a mistake and get a command line error, you type the word fuck and it looks at what you previously typed and the error message, and tries to figure out your mistake and what you should have typed instead. Then it types that in for you. If it’s correct all you have to do is hit Enter. Or you can edit first, but it’s usually right. Amazing tool, and doesn’t even use AI, just a list of common errors. It’s been around for years and years. Its mere existence really captures the whole culture of linux IMO.
See, I couldn’t bring myself to type that; I think I’d have to alias it to ‘bother’.
