nixCraft 🐧Who among us hasn't wished they could delete their problems as easily as a directory?
rm -rfv ~/my_problems*
Marijke Luttekesproblems > /dev/null/
Anthropy@nixCraft dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/myproblems bs=9001T status=progress violence=yes
Vick Forcella ™🌈🌳❄️☑️:verifi
DanatharNope! I want my problems! The only people without problems are DEAD! ;)
SiliconFarmer@nixCraft me right now:
mkdir myproblems
*I may need a larger hard drive.
MarkV@nixCraft Is this command safe to run if most of my problems are just in my own head?
Django@nixCraft Why verbose? 🤔🤨
Régis Haubourg@nixCraft Yes, but I will always struggle to remember if I need to `rm -rfv ~/my_problems*` or `rm -rfv ~/my_problems/*`
It is one of my problems.
It is one of my problems.
zeyus@nixCraft well you have to be careful, that would also remove
~/my_problems_resolved and ~/my_problems_that_are_now_other_peoples_problems
Boyd Stephen Smith Jr.@nixCraft Wait, did I delete my_problemsolver ?
Adam Katz@nixCraft why
-v? You want to revisit them all one more time on the way to oblivion?
figuratum@nixCraft use --not-preserve-root to get rid of the causes.
Alex Kagno@nixCraft let they who has not `rm -rf /`'d cast the first stone.
Pirate Bady@nixCraft But... but this only removes the problems in my "home" with the "root" of everything still remaining untouched!
Miguel Colom@nixCraft ok, but be careful not to leave a blank space before the * :S
