Throwback to that time when Steam for Linux would sometimes
rm -rf /*your computer. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/3671I can't believe this happened! Now I'm more interested in seeing those memes people posted on the issue.
It was mostly LTT memes since it happend to him on video
No that was a bug with the linux package manager when he was trying to install steam, steam wasn't the issue
Are there tools like pusshift for Lemmy already or why can you see a comment I deleted directly after posting it?
Doesn't look deleted on my instance
I never knew this existed. This is amazing and hilarious, thank you for sharing this!
Love it!
rm -rf "$STEAMROOT/"*- what could possibly go wrong?Remember when it happend to LTT?
yes, do as I sayBut this isn't what happened. For Linus, it was a bug with APT that made it uninstall the entire desktop environment.
Uh, I didn't know that actually.
I've never seen so many comments on a gh issue before
You should see some threads linked on github-drama, there were >1000 comments when audacity tried to add telemetry.
Classic!
It did what?! Holy crap, I've never heard of that. Guess I should be less lazy and run a backup more frequently.
If you uninstalled ROTMG when it first launched, it would delete everything from your disk.
