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.
Heheh on Linux when you think you found the answer you copy paste, log out and back in. Sometimes reboot if it don’t with try the next copy and paste.. so many memories
Lol yep.
This makes me laugh so much. After years of using Linux, it’s 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.
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.

You'll learn when you do more of those
You copypaste till everything is in the terminal history, then you just scroll through it like a pro
Ah yes, anytime I am making a script in bash and have to use something I have never seen before.
It's the main reason mainly programmers use it, not because of the openess, because they learnt to Google there problems
