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 once tried to log in into my arch workstation, and the password just didn’t work. I had used that password and had not switched distros for 6+ months, and one day it started saying that my password is incorrect. Not just the user password but also the root password. Stopped using arch since that day
