What's something you just learned, that you should have known for a while? - Lemmy.world

Don’t mess around with partitions on your disk when it’s past midnight, you’re extremely stressed, and you don’t have (easily accessible) backups.
Additionally don’t do maintenance on your computers when tired, learned from experience
Okay, almost done. rm -rf ./*. Wait… pwd. Shit.

Let’s just say I was doing inside maintenance on a old laptop of mine where I fried a cable because I plugged the battery in and forgot to plug that cable in but I forgot to unplug the battery before plugging that cable in and ended up frying a cable when plugging it back in

Luckily it was only the cable that got fried

But that’s in the past now
