is it save to do this on a virtual machine though?

[-] lud@lemm.ee 4 points 8 months ago

Yeah, why not. If you don't have anything important on the VM you can do whatever the fuck you want.

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 8 months ago

so it will simply stop working until you reinstall the VM?

[-] ordellrb@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Depending on the system it will not even have a promt or have it but /bin is gone and no command works

[-] lud@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago

The VM will stop working yes. You could use snapshots before though.

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.
