Why don't you have suicide Linux installed, /g/? It's a script that changes any invalid/ mistyped command into rm - rf --no-preserve-root.

I've patched rm to ignore --no-preserve-root

There used to to be a sysadmin-version of doom, where the system deletes a random file every time you die.

Converesely also one where you kill jobs by killing enemies.

you never actually tried, but know what happens, right?

actually, rm simply freezes after a bunch of error messages

I have sudo rm -rf'd my system before. I was trying to remove a directory on my external drive and accidentally typed "sudo rm -rf /" instead of "sudo rm -rf ./". I assumed that the system was hosed so I backed up my /home and immediately did a reinstall.

But thanks for the info.
