When I feel like scrapping the whole project and starting over:
Me: (in the project dir) sudo rm -rf /*
Me: (after waiting a while) Something feels off… Why is it taking so long to delete everything?
Me: (suddenly realizing) ^C ^C ^C
System: Press any key to continue…
当我想把整个项目推倒重做时：
我:（在项目目录）sudo rm -rf /*
我:（等了一会儿）有点不对劲。。。怎么删了这么长时间还没删完
我:（恍然大悟）^C ^C ^C
系统： Press any key to continue…
Me who wants to remove a system-wide script:
rm -rf /usr/bin /local/script.sh
Yes, the space was an accident, and yes, this did happen 😋
mv folder delete-this rm -rf delete-thisgives you one chance to reconsider what you just did before it is too late. And you never have a risk of a dangerous delete-all lurking in your command history.
Why do you need
sudoto run your project? Are you developing kernel drivers?Even then, nothing in the build directory should have unusual permissions.
make && sudo make installor whatever.It’s laziness. A lot of the build stuff is read-only. And as the simple art of
yes | rm -r <folder>is dying,sudois an “easy” way to avoid having to typeYdozens of times.
No biggie. At least you preserved
/. :)Good point, if I do this I can distrohop without worrying of installing anything!
That’s why I always delete in file manager, if I made a mistake I can retrieve it from “waste bin”, can you make some kind of recycle bin for rm command? Nvm I found this after 5 second of online searching https://github.com/babarot/gomi
Idk about gomi, but trash-cli is a standard package I install on all of my computers
.
I feel like I should try this one day if I reset my distro.
