      With great power comes great responsibility. Do check twice what you write.

      Jokes aside, it has happened to almost everyone… and then you learn to QUADRUPLE CHECK dd commands.

        I haven’t accidentally deleted a bunch of data yet (which, considering 99% of my interaction with Linux is when I’m SSH’d into a user’s server, I am very paranoid about not doing), but I have run fsck on a volume without mounting the read/write flashcache with dirty blocks on it first.

        Oops.
