Meme transcription: Anakin & Padme

[Panel 1] Anakin tries selects “Update and shut down” from the Windows start menu.

[Panel 2] Padme, labeled as “Windows”, cheerily says: ”You mean ‘Update and restart’, right?”

[Panel 3] Anakin takes an annoyed look.

[Panel 4] Padme, still cheery, says “I’ll just ‘Update and Restart’.”

Just be careful when copy/pasting commands. Especially when updating/removing packages.

I’ve shot myself in the foot a number of times where I’ve nuked my desktop environment from existence because deleting a package also deleted the entire environment. Definitely on me though, I didn’t read properly. So just keep an eye on what you’re doing, read what it’s updating and removing and the majority of the time you’ll be fine.
