I found out that this tool http://www.convertlit.com/ provides a program with a funny name. I wonder if there are similar programs with offensive names or puns like this one. For example, I remember reading a fortune output saying something along the lines of

man Why did you get divorced? 
man: Too many arguments.

And of course, there is the cliche touch grass.

alias molest="sudo touch"

And in a similar vein back when I used an arch adjacent distro I aliased pacman -R to "yeet"

Install a package with yay packagename, get rid of it with yeet packagename

what does c do? been using rns for years

-c, --cascade
Remove all target packages, as well as all packages that depend on one or more target packages. This operation is recursive and must be used with care, since it can remove many potentially needed packages.

Ok, not always with -c.

Well, in short, with -Rsn, pacman complains about breaking dependency apk-style. With -Rcsn, it just resolves them (asking first of course).
