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.

I had an accident when i tried to change my Debian from using APT package manager to Slackware Pkgtools. When i made a package for Pkgtools, i used Pkgtools built-in chown (which is "Sloppy" according to manpage) and it didn't just change ownership of the package but also my user folder and files inside my user folder. Because it, my Waydroid had errors

Sorry if my english is wrong
