    Real pros shuffle across the carpet to build a static charge and do their system administration by electrical fault injection.

      Jesus, every time I have to run glx or vaapi under a container I end up having to do this then cringe.

      Once had a friend run sudo chmod -R 777 / on a (public) Minecraft server we were running back in highschool. It made me die a bit on the inside.

      As a one time noob I may have done this once or more.

      To get one thing working I borked everything.

      Understanding permissions is pretty basic. But understanding permission requirements for system and user apps and their config and dirs can be a bit overwhelming at first.

      Thinking a little change to make your life simpler will break something else doesn’t always register immediately.

      Shit, even recently, wondering why my SSH keys were being refused and realising that somehow i set my private keys world readable.

      Thank god SSH checks file and dir permission.
