Stop browsing /g/ right now and do the following, on whatever OS and DE you are currently using:

>>>Step 1<<<
Create a new directory and open it.

>>>Step 2<<<
Create 100 new files in it. Their content does not matter.

>>>Step 3<<<
Rename all these files to add the prefix “OK”.

If you cannot do all this within 45 seconds, you don’t belong here. Fuck off back to /v/ you newfag. It took me 32 seconds.

this is cute. So what this does is look for the end of a string and then replace it with ".OK", right? What function does the
* 2> /dev/null
serve? I just tried this out using regular sed, like

echo {1..100} >> test.txt
sed 's/ /\ \n/g' test.txt > strings.txt
sed 's/$/.OK strings.txt > ok.txt

and it did the thing
>>
>>54024104
sedname is a bash script someone wrote for batch renamning. It's super useful. It takes a regex to apply along with the files to operate on as arguments. The
2> /dev/null
just redirects stderr to /dev/null, I could have left it out, but I didn't think you would have liked 100 lines of
0 -> 0.OK
1 -> 1.OK
2 -> 2.OK
3 -> 3.OK

I'm not sure what you're doing in that screenshot, but if you select all files in a directory in Windows 7 and then right click on one and rename it it will prefix all the files in the folder with the same prefix. It won't do what that screenshot is doing.

Cut out step 3. Created 100 files with the prefix OK. Saved time.

Damn google went full retarded.
First they disabled by 9 year old account with million views on youtube because I'm a threat to it - claiming something about suspicious activity.
It asks me for phone number to reset - ok, wait you can't use the phone number because it's already used - by you, but we blocked your account and you can't reset that either.

I wait few days, I make a new account -shortly it doesn't allow me log in again because again - suspicious activity.

Fuck google - I observed this phenomena started to occur ever since I'm using ublock origin with most filters on - but might just be a coincidence.
