When I was in high school, I was wandering around NASA's FTP site. They had a bunch of cool things, like Hubble pictures, or rocket schematics.

My dad walked by, and looked over my shoulder. He saw me looking at one of the schematics and thought I'd hacked NASA.

Go into a bar or coffee shop and go to http://hackertyper.com/

Some lady once came up to me and my friends and asked if we were hacking things.

We lied and said yes. But we were just working on homework.

E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?

this incidence will be reported

This was just recently removed from sudo. Truly the end of an era

Remove "This incident will be reported." from user warnings. 

This used to indicate that email had been sent to the administrator
telling them that someone tried to run sudo.  Whether or not sudo
sends email is now configurable, so the warning may not be accurate.
It is also confusing to the user since they will not know who the
incident is being reported to.  See also https://xkcd.com/838

No such command: unzip. Please use /usr/bin/dnf --help
It could be a DNF plugin command, try: "dnf install 'dnf-command(unzip)'"
