Share Your Stories of Accidents and Annoyances..
So I was thinking of silly things I've done that pseudo-broke my system, or made me think I had a broken system. Like the time I put the cmd :
exit
in my ~/.bash_aliases file and I had to open a text editor to fix it because that broke all the terminals on my machine.
I'm curious what other silly things users have done to confuse themselves.
You're viewing a single thread.
I made alias q=exit for some reason and now I accidentally close the terminal when I press ;q and enter 😭
Why would you type ; in a terminal though? Are you using it as a code editor?
Such is the power of a habit, I use vim often
Wouldn't it be : instead?
I remapped : to ; so that I don't have to hold shift to enter command mode
Oh that makes sense then, interesting
God bless your innocent soul.
