There is a reason why Linux is my main operating system of choice -- and it's not because of the freedom.

My favorite system message is GRUB's "bailing out, you're on your own. Good luck"

Dazed and confused, but trying to continue

- This is the most confusing and awesome message I've ever had.
  
  31
- What causes that?

Screen prints (printed?)
Suddenly the Dungeon collapses!! - You die.. when the master process died unexpectedly.

54
- You have nethack messages activated?

My favorite too.

The PowerPC installers used to have a step where it would output something like "Blessing /dev/sda1 with holy penguin pee" loved that message :)

87

OP is not in the sudoers file.

This incident will be reported.

80

This was scary to me as a young guy learning Linux 30 years ago. Turns out it's not reporting to anyone. :)

25
- It in fact is reportet to the system admin. In that case you.
  
  It's in a journalctl log (i think location is depending on distro)
  
  30
- Linus Torvalds gets those reports and puts you on the naughty list
  
  16
- Yeah. I think it's a holdover from earlier *NIX.
  
  4
- It reports it to you ( the system admin )

Santa is coming for that naughty person!

I like when my system insults me when I do dumb things. This is why enabled the „insults“ option in my sudoers config.

65

I need to do this, I need constant reminders that what I'm doing is nonsensical.

16
I'll need to do this. Is it just in the default sudoers file as an option?

8
- Yes take a look here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Sudo#Enable_insults

This APT has super cow powers

Once, on bsd, I got, "you done messed up"

I destroyed the fs, so, to be fair, it wasn't wrong...

48

Lmao how did you do that?

8
- It was my very first non-windows installation. Win98 (not SE) had just came out, and I was super frustrated with the state of the desktop OS. I thought, "there has to be something better than this shite". I got an old computer from a yard sale and an old HDD from goodwill all for around $10 (I didn't want my main computer to be the guinea pig), downloaded Caldera from some shady site, and started the installation process. Remember Caldera and how it was supposed to be an OS for the masses, supposedly working on current hardware? Well... Not my state of the art junker was excluded from that claim, I suppose, because it failed. I tried several other distros, but all failed. Hell, even Win3.11 failed. My friend told me that he got BSD running on his dad's old laptop (BW screen, manual toggles for the brightness and contrast, even had to be plugged in to work), because "you could run BSD on some tinfoil and gum". So, I figured, why not. Downloaded the IMG file wrote it to floppy, and started. I got it installed (yay), then started tinkering. I don't remember now what I did, but, yeah, I effed that installation up real good. Reinstalled successful, and just used it as is with minor adjustments to make it work a little smoother. I even got it to print on our brand new HP Deskjet 540 printer, something Win98 just couldn't handle.

I'm sorry ntfs? Disgusting and I see your libfuse, you aren't even gonna mount it via NTFS3.

29

Shit, all these linux posts make me want to setup one.

29

You should definitely setup a Linux post post Linux installation. Make sure you check 'use entire disk' to rid your machine of any residue

23
- If he does I'll install linux too. As w can have a post Linux post Linux posting post Linux post posting Linux posting post the post posting linux

Linux is computing grace.

Windows is computing horror.

That was not the UNIX way... True UNIX way would end silently and have zero as $?

27

I always liked the "UNIX confirmation prompt":

Were you sure?

19
- After three minutes of nothing, caused by a command to remove the French language pack:
  
  sudo rm -Rf /

I miss "lp1 on fire" :-(

25

That message would require a printer, which one cannot miss if they finally got rid of it.

12

You enjoy Linux to freely use your machine. I use it to make the cow say funny thing. We are not the same.

23

And then there's the symfony console who tells you after each command "now get back to work" :(

22

Ow. Now that is rude.

6

There's that really aggressive message from ssh in all caps that goes like "IT LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE IS TRYING TO DO SOMETHING REAL NASTY" when the fingerprint on a ssh host changes. Usually happens when I format or reinstall OS on a device that maintains same IP or address.

13

We all promptly ignore it until one time it's real!

1

It doesn't say that on my system when I format with ext4. Is it because you used ntfs? Probably.

10

I didn't get that with btrfs either.

2

I prefer the bb command

I love GRUB's "Installation finished. No error reported." Its a small thing, but you need a confident voice to tell you that everything is OK.
