Tinkering and Stability
What are some of the easiest ways for a beginner to make their system untable when they start tinkering with it?
You're viewing a single thread.
delete everything in /tmp; you're not really using it anyways and you'll get more disk space. lol
i literally used this same logic when i merged the contents of c:\windows & c:\win32 because there were so many duplicate files and folders and i needed to recover the free space.
sometimes i'm thankful for my cluelessness; examples like this paint me into corners and this particular corner was the impetus behind my exploration into linux; which has sustained my career for the last 25ish years through several once-in-a-lifetime economic recessions and multiple personal setbacks.
linux is the best mistake i've ever made.
I'm curious what you work as? Sysadmin?
i've been accused of that along with several other slurs like systems engineer and cloud operations engineer and it systems architecture analyst and software engineer. lol
i'm a software developer atm, but my current gig has a LOT of overlap with all of those other four letter word titles that i dare not repeat in decent company. lol
Janitor.
So SysAdmin, gotcha
