For a fun ride, run this in a terminal:

find / -exec cat {} ';'

Devil it is

What is that goin to do?

@linuxer4fun it runs cat on every single file on your system. So you get a never ending stream of stuff in your terminal, and it just looks like your pc is having a stroke. It doesnt change anything or do anything dangerous since it only runs cat, just looks funny :)

@GigaByteRex cant u interrupt it with ctrl, c?

@linuxer4fun yuuup! So its not gonna brick your pc or anything. Let it run until you're done convincing people your pc is dying, and then ctrl c it, and all is normal again :D

@GigaByteRex XD Actually ih couldnt brick my pc, as I always can setuplinux again :)

@linuxer4fun brick your OS*
You know what I meant ;)

@GigaByteRex ok. But is it possiblo to brick the computer, not the os? Maybe soma dark bios magic, but how can it be reprogrammed, as it is ro?

@linuxer4fun as far as I know, and I may very well be wrong, I think it would take some dark magic to brick it so hard that you can't reinstall or fix it in any way. You can although unsafely overclock stuff so you fry your motherboard. Some nifty BIOS stuff and whatnot and you can tell your CPU to go full overdrive and boom, there's a hole in your mobo (figuratively) :D

@GigaByteRex ok... Thx 4 the guide to fry my pc :)

@linuxer4fun Ahahah have fun :D

@GigaByteRex #schoolpcswith230mbram

That's pretty nifty!

@rayanon yeah, it's one of those Linux things that is completely useless yet kinda fancy at the same time

@GigaByteRex true!

I somehow manged to brick my bash once by running cat on a blck device, different encodings were thrown together and i couldn't type in anything properly until I logged out and in again.
Also wouldn't this be stuck at cat /dev/zero random or something?

@Kimmax well, I haven't actually tried letting it finish because it takes way too long anyway hahah but yeah, I imagine it would get stuck
