You’ve got to make sure to remove the root of the French language with --no-preserve-root
(Je t’aime mes amis français!)
Jesus Christ. One part of me really wants to see some green text rant about this. Another part of me empathizes with the horrible pain and suffering it would wield.
I actually dont keep anything important on my PC, it’s basically just a gaming and homework machine. So tempted to do stuff like this for the meme and also because setting up arch again might teach me some things
Do it in a virtual machine. No reason to torch your own stuff when you don’t have to.
This is the first lesson you have to learn as a Linux enthusiast, NEVER run commands you don’t know from the internet
And never run commands copied from a web page, even if you do know them.
JavaScript’s copy/paste API means a website owner or an attacker can change the contents of your clipboard after you press copy, and you’ll end up pasting malicious commands into your shell. I think Firefox blocks this now, don’t know about Chrome.
Oh shit fr? That’s wild
You don’t need the wildcard after the slash. It’s recursive with the r switch.
I believe the wildcard eliminates the need for --no-preserve-root, since your not technically removing root, just all the stuff in it
Cleaning up unused languages was a good way to free up about 100MB. Which was important if you only had a gigabyte hard drive
Pourquoi ??? Why ??
Because french
Fr*nce
This is why I alias rm=‘rm -i’
