Be glad it was your keyboard getting it and not you...
My custom keyboard is freaking expensive -- I'd throw myself in front of my piss to save my keyboard any day!
I accidentally typed "git gud" one time and Steam notified that I have completed all achievements of Dark Souls 1-3 at the same time (I don't even own the games)
That's a joke, right?
Yes.
Thank you. Now I shall commence laughter.
I've been programming for too long, my brain just autocorrected the typo so initially didn't get the joke...
shitdown -h now
i never tried it, but i like the idea of https://github.com/nvbn/thefuck for fixing mistakes in the terminal
Beware the DWIM!
In one notorious incident, Warren added a DWIM feature to the command interpreter used at Xerox PARC. One day another hacker there typed
delete *$to free up some disk space. (The editor there named backup files by appending $ to the original file name, so he was trying to delete any backup files left over from old editing sessions.) It happened that there weren't any editor backup files, so DWIM helpfully reported *$ not found, assuming you meant 'delete *'. It then started to delete all the files on the disk!
this reminded me of that feature with lots of articles about its usefulness:
That would turn your desktop into a surgical bed.
My most common typo is gti <random command> and I'm considering to alias it as rm -rf --no-preserve-root /
I was suspicious as heck of this link, but I thank you for being benign.
I always type get and then get very mad when the terminal/powershell tell me how high I am.
Now do puhs
This kills the computer.
