\rs for some reason, so output prints like:$ ls -l drwxr-xr-x 2 lentil lentil Desktop/ drwxrwxr-x 4 lentil lentil doom/ drwxr-xr-x 17 lentil lentil Downloads/%

resetis your friend. Less so these days with GUIs where it's often quicker to close the window and open a new terminal emulator, but still good to know about in a pinch. That rare occasion where you're actually on a console and Ctrl-Alt-F# isn't available, or attached to a remote session where disconnection might mean you can't get back on, etc.The man page suggests Control-J
resetControl-J as the correct sequence to run it, because the Enter key might have had its behaviour altered. And if things are still slightly weird after thereset, run its parenttset.-

This has helped me when reset failed.

Actually having login console on a serial port can be pretty useful if you screw up something with network on a headless PC. I wish modern computers still had that as it also works better than USB adapters.

What a nice folder of mostly text files, would be a shame if someone did a
cat *without checking to make sure it doesn't have a 2GB encrypted game asset archive in it.

The incessant beeping and glitching out is like a secret prize

I know of a fun game called linux roulette. Type all the commands from this comment section into your terminal as root and if your computer still works afterwards you win.

At one point during this game my garage door opened half way (didn't know if could do that) and my oven tried to preheat to 2000 kelvin.

Stop cat files!

I feel like most tools stop and warn me it appears to be a binary file but honestly I so rarely directly cat a file.

Is that a Sheep Dog, and Wolf pfp?

The graphics make it look like the game Sheep, Dog, n Wolf but Ralph Wolf has a red nose it seems. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralph_Wolf_and_Sam_Sheepdog
Ralph Wolf has virtually the same character design as another Chuck Jones character, Wile E. Coyote—brown fur, wiry body, and huge ears, but with a red nose in place of the Coyote's black one; (usually) white eyes instead of the Coyote's yellow ones; and, occasionally, a fang protruding from his mouth. He also shares the Coyote's appetite and persistent use of Acme Corporation products, but he covets sheep instead of roadrunners
Also looks like it was called Sheep Raider in America.
But yeah that's definitely Wile E.
