Follow-up from “Dumbest Thing you have done distro-hopping?”.

Here’s mine - the laptop from which I’m typing right now has a broken touchpad that keeps jumping and clicking randomly, and does not work. Well, I can’t afford to fix it, but at the moment, I was so pissed off I punched the touchpad really hard, and the machine panicked with all the lights blinking. A few more revival abuses, and the machine was back to life, but since I was running a nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade in the background, I blew off my boot partition. I think I just broke the unbreakable distro.

    This… OMG!

    All started with a docker run -v ... on sub folder on my home directory. The command changed the ownership of some files to root…

    In order to get my permissions back I sudo and tried to run chown -R andrefsp:andrefsp ./* on the folder.

    Thing is… My stupid ass didn’t actually typed ./* but /* instead followed by an angry Enter… It was so fast… So quick… The whole thing was fucked beyond recognition…
