I'm such a fucking idiot.

I hope you have some kind of backup

Why? WHYYYYY?

@tahnik I do, luckily ^^' Still a bitch though.

@DucksCanCode I was trying to remove /home/luca/~ (which I accidentally created with some files in it, so the -rf was actually necessary).

@LucaScorpion oh god... I hurt in my heart place...

I found it! What's that terminal emulator called?

@AlgoRythm Zsh, and I'm using Oh My Zsh with the bullet train theme :)

@LucaScorpion Thank youuu

@LucaScorpion
A.f.a.i.k
~ is an alias to /home/luca/

I see you like to live dangerously. And you got burned for it :) glad to hear you have a backup, but my god why would you ever name a folder ~? What's next, calling a folder /?

@Bikonja Because of a typo in a bash script :P

@LucaScorpion oh, well double bad-luck for you then :)

@AndSoWeCode its a oh-my-zsh terminal with the bullet train theme..

God bless you

@AlgoRythm @LucaScorpion a man's misery is another man's fortune

I'm so fearful of this scenario that I first thought about making a script that prevents it if I ever accidentally run it.

Then I found something called safe-rm. Some Perl script I think written a long time ago. I tried it and it works so now it's part of my dotfiles setup process. Better safe than sorry.

Pray, began
