    Someone installed this across our 2500 machine entire fleet back in 2013. I wanted to fucking punch him in the dick, especially during incidents where every second matters.

    Not a mistake but a fun reminder that the terminal can be a very fun place!

    So I installed this way back in the day on my prod corporate VMs. I was still green, and any prod issues would shake me so much, it was too stressful.

    I taught myself to relax when the locomotive pops up, take a few deep breaths and go on.

    It was super effective. I learned to not get so flustered, and stopped messing commands due to adrenaline. I no longer install it anywhere, but it still puts a smile and a wave of nostalgia when I see or hear about it.

    Such a small thing, yet it helped me grow so much.

    If we’re sharing silly useless projects, I quite like “activate linux”, the configurable watermark inspired by “Activate Windows”.
    It’s unfortunately not a strictly terminal based goof, but wanted to share anyway.

      This isn’t useless. It serves a purpose.

      It’s for interns who fat finger commands to force them to slow down and be more intentional and verify their commands before pressing enter.
