        I thought for sure, for sure this was bullshit. For sure Linux doesn’t have a touch command. What could it possibly do.?

        Changing timestamps and creating empty files…

        Of course, that makes so much sense. 🤔

          It does make sense! When you modify a file, you do “things” on it, you write it. So the minimum you can possibly do to a file to modify it, is “to poke it”: to touch it.

              Hahahha, I just learnt about that gene a little while ago and thought the same: that’s an stupid name for a gene. How would you name them? (the gene and the command)

                Imagine being a doctor telling a couple their fetus died because of a sonic hedgehog gene mutation, tho. (This does happen)

                Like, it won’t matter in another few hundred years, but culture is difficult right now.

                Makes me wonder if the romans did meme shit like that. They graffiti shitposted and whatever so…

                Luckily nobody asks me what I would name shit because my pets are testament to my complete lack of creativity. 😊

          Probably with !! (!n will be the command corresponding to the number n in your history, !! is shorthand for the last command)

        Not with the asterisk! The shell automatically expands the asterisk before sending the args to rm, removing every French language pack in your root directory.

    side note: My all-time favorite linux utility is “fuck”. When you make a mistake and get a command line error, you type the word fuck and it looks at what you previously typed and the error message, and tries to figure out your mistake and what you should have typed instead. Then it types that in for you. If it’s correct all you have to do is hit Enter. Or you can edit first, but it’s usually right. Amazing tool, and doesn’t even use AI, just a list of common errors. It’s been around for years and years. Its mere existence really captures the whole culture of linux IMO.

          apt on its own isn’t safe to use in shell scripts while apt-get is. At least, that is the output I get when using apt in a script on Debian.

          That is the only reason, for interactive sessions use apt, for automated scripts apt-get.

  • Don’t get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of “peasantry” to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures

We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
