Christopher Larkin moment

I finished it, and my goodness, the music was perfect ! Any other composer would have made me mute the song as I failed the screen 100 times for hours, but somehow Lena’s music doesn’t get annoying after looping.

Oh I know, I just have a few hundred grams of it since I like collecting elements, so I recast it into something funny when I’m bored

Opening phones and heating burritos :)

And melting gallium when I 3D print moulds to make some silly metal objects (probably not so smart next to so much aluminium extrusion)

Two times actually! Like someone else has said, removing python wasn’t the best course of action :)

The second time was when I had a copy of the home directory of that laptop’s data on my server. The username of that laptop was the same as my server, and I no longer needed the folder containing my laptop data. Instead of doing “rm -rf ./home/username”, I somehow didn’t put a period before the directory and erased my servers home directory…

Exactly what I came here to say!

This is super true. I occasionally visit a TRIGA reactor that was built decades ago, and a good chunk of the computers critical in infrastructure run comically old versions of windows since software used to operate the faculty was a custom job.
