    That’s a big egg. Of course, egg is just how you say oof when you remove the french language pack.

      Remember that AI answer that said that adding -f option was to get a confirmation before deletion ?

      I’m a bit concerned that this kind of meme will get a lot more real when people will blindly trust AI for commands.

      Unfortunately I couldn’t find the post in question but if I recall it was GitHub AI telling boldly that you can add -f to your RM command to get a confirmation…

      Read the man people. RTFM is still a good advice.

    I think that was a load-bearing language pack - my entire system has caved-in!

    Also, remember to empty your recycle bin by doing sudo rf -rm /usr/bin, and don’t forget the super recycle bin for hidden super garbage sudo rm -rf /usr/sbin

    I’ve never actually tried this but feel like rm should have a built in warning specifically for that command letting them know they’ve been trolled and have a y/N prompt.
