Itβs funny cuz itβs true
Just be careful with those two letter shell commands like rm and dd. But if you don't, you will become proficient in reinstalling Linux.
The real question is which buffer are you using? Team middle-click ftw.
I've spent some much time in a terminal the last week I'm starting to Ctrl+x anytime I want to save anything lol. Even illustrator files at work lol.
Does Linux still have three different and incompatible paste buffers?
You'll learn when you do more of those
Honestly this is good enough for most people. Some may say you risk fucking up the os/computer but windows guides carry the same risk.
I'm sad because this is true.
Also, man -k is a lost, dark art.

This makes me laugh so much. After years of using Linux, itβs still true for me to an extent.
I'm a Linux system admin, I literally do this for a living, and I usually feel like I have no idea what I'm doing.
Lol yep.
You copypaste till everything is in the terminal history, then you just scroll through it like a pro
It's the main reason mainly programmers use it, not because of the openess, because they learnt to Google there problems
