On the one hand, that is cool as fuck.

Unfortunately though, I’ve been fortunate in that I’ve been using Linux for 16 years and never experienced a panic screen, so I probably won’t get to see Tux :/

Delete /etc to make your system faster. /s Also, obligatory warning to NEVER DO THIS for anyone new to Linux.

That won’t cause a kernel panic

Yeah ‘etc’ of course stands for ‘et cetera’ which implies that’s all just a bunch of extra shit, right?

For destructive commands I much prefer find / -type f -exec mv {} /blackhole \;

Idea: Create alias for /dev/null as /blackhole

Would this even cause a kernel panic? I think this just causes a userland “panic”

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
