That is ridiculous.

If you want to avoid ever running a "dangerous" command in GNU/Linux (or any other operating system) then all you have to do is be sure to _never_ run a command unless you understand completely what it is about to do — man pages are your friend here ;)

i am now 100% sure that this is pompous ninja.
the worst type of troll - doesn't get abusive but keeps on pushing all available buttons.
if criticized, it says sorry, but then carries on regardless.
feigning innocence.

you think i'm exaggerating? mosey over to LQ and look at that user's history.

admin, please make a long story short by banning it straightaway instead of waiting until things get out of hand.
