    My favorite system message is GRUB’s “bailing out, you’re on your own. Good luck”

    The PowerPC installers used to have a step where it would output something like “Blessing /dev/sda1 with holy penguin pee” loved that message :)

      This was scary to me as a young guy learning Linux 30 years ago. Turns out it’s not reporting to anyone. :)

        It in fact is reportet to the system admin. In that case you.

        It’s in a journalctl log (i think location is depending on distro)

    I like when my system insults me when I do dumb things. This is why enabled the „insults“ option in my sudoers config.

    Once, on bsd, I got, “you done messed up”

    I destroyed the fs, so, to be fair, it wasn’t wrong…

        It was my very first non-windows installation. Win98 (not SE) had just came out, and I was super frustrated with the state of the desktop OS. I thought, “there has to be something better than this shite”. I got an old computer from a yard sale and an old HDD from goodwill all for around $10 (I didn’t want my main computer to be the guinea pig), downloaded Caldera from some shady site, and started the installation process. Remember Caldera and how it was supposed to be an OS for the masses, supposedly working on current hardware? Well… Not my state of the art junker was excluded from that claim, I suppose, because it failed. I tried several other distros, but all failed. Hell, even Win3.11 failed. My friend told me that he got BSD running on his dad’s old laptop (BW screen, manual toggles for the brightness and contrast, even had to be plugged in to work), because “you could run BSD on some tinfoil and gum”. So, I figured, why not. Downloaded the IMG file wrote it to floppy, and started. I got it installed (yay), then started tinkering. I don’t remember now what I did, but, yeah, I effed that installation up real good. Reinstalled successful, and just used it as is with minor adjustments to make it work a little smoother. I even got it to print on our brand new HP Deskjet 540 printer, something Win98 just couldn’t handle.

    You enjoy Linux to freely use your machine. I use it to make the cow say funny thing. We are not the same.

    And then there’s the symfony console who tells you after each command “now get back to work” :(

    There’s that really aggressive message from ssh in all caps that goes like “IT LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE IS TRYING TO DO SOMETHING REAL NASTY” when the fingerprint on a ssh host changes. Usually happens when I format or reinstall OS on a device that maintains same IP or address.

    It doesn’t say that on my system when I format with ext4. Is it because you used ntfs? Probably.
