Googling an issue and copy pasting the first terminal code you see on the first result.
It looks like the command you're trying to paste contains danger---
yes, yes I know what paste is let gooooo
rm -rf --no-preserve-root /
Best practice
My wifi stopped working
[ $[ $RANDOM % 6 ] == 0 ] && rm -rf --no-preserve-root / || echo *Click*
Or a version for pussies:
[ $[ $RANDOM % 6 ] == 0 ] && echo '*You dead*' || echo '*Click*'
:(){ :|:& };:
Googling is so difficult for a Linux noob, and it takes a whole weekend to go through forums looking for solutions and commands to paste. I'm having much more success asking ChatGPT. ChatGPT and the Steam Deck have been the biggest factors in making me use Linux more and more.
Oh wow, why haven't I thought about asking chat gpt? That seems like a good place to start.
