There is no such thing as immutable or uncorruptable OS. My late father would always find a way to fuck up the laptop I setup for him. He would even come back with errors that I’ve seen for the first time and our conversation would go like this:
Me: How did this happen? My Father: how should know? It was like this when I turned it on. Me: what did you do before you turned it off last time? My Father: I was on Facebook, played some backgammon and watched some YouTube. Me: …
I miss him and I would gladly give everything to have him bother me with his laptop problems one more time. I hope that he is getting some good support where ever he is.
I believe the saying goes.
If you make something idiot proof, the universe will produce a more advanced idiot.
(Not to belittle your late father’s intellect)

My father does this as well. And it’s always the computer because it’s old and it plays tricks on him. He’s never done anything wrong!
Me when I accidentally type in sudo rm -rf /
: how the fuck did I accidentally type that in?
you forgot --no-preserve-root
or it won’t do anything.
yeah that’s why the term “atomic” is better
Immutable doesn’t mean unbreakable though.
