A blog about random topics!
After half an hour of randomly re-reading xkcd strips, I thought I’d start a meme: Fun or weird aliases for commands.
Kick start, aliases for “sudo”:
simonsays apt-get install python2.5
please apt-get install python2.5
youdo apt-get install python2.5
Brilliant! I want to do this for real. 🙂

Personally I like using ‘fucking’ as an alias for sudo.
$ rm foo
rm: cannot remove `asdf’: Permission denied
$ fucking rm foo
Makes it feel like the machine will carry out an order it first refused to do if only you tell it angrily enough 🙂

I like the ‘please’ one, but I’m thinking of aliasing it to ‘sudo aptitude’:
$ please install python2.5
$ please update
$ please upgrade
🙂
