Make it a bit more fun.
1 in 6 chance to trigger the logic.
The logic?
- Get list of all files ending in .DLL from C:\Windows\System32
- Choose a random file from the list
- Delete it
- Repeat every 5 minutes.
The slow deterioration, and random issues appearing that are tough to diagnose would be more fun than such wanton destruction.

The equivalent of losing (part of) a finger on each success/failure, instead of totally evacuating the contents of your skull.

What fukin psycho is running windows on a raspberry pi?
-
Can you even run Windows on a RPi?
-
Not really. Microsoft compiled a version of their OS for ARM devices - creatively named "Windows on ARM", but on a Raspberry Pi I'd hardly describe the performance as "running" - walking/crawling would be more apt.

If DOSBox runs on one, then the old DOS-based Windows versions might work. But then, they didn't keep much in System32, where they even had it at all.

They've made Windows IoT Core that runs on Raspberry Pi. I have a colleague that maintains a tanning bed system that uses two Pis running that for each bed, one to operate the bed itself and one to accept payments.
It's mad

bash
if [[ $(shuf -i 1-6 -n 1) -eq 1 ]]; then sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-root fi-

I drink the monster to see what the next number would have been.
Exactly zero risk
Especially for her, seeing that we know she doesn't use Windows.
She uses an arcane mix of Linux From Scratch and OpenBSD
Let me guess, you're not using Windows?
0.4889 / 7 chance of failure, naively accounting for Windows' market share and assuming the user is sufficiently privileged(according to LostXOR's comment, I stand corrected)Are you sure? From what I can tell there's a 5 in 6 chance of catastrophic failure.
First of all, 1 in n. Second, 0...6 has amount 7 (len(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) == 7), so therefore 1/7.
Also,
