You know how sometimes if you mistype a filename in Bash, it corrects your spelling and runs the command anyway? Such as when changing directory, or opening a file.

I have invented Suicide Linux. Any time - any time - you type any remotely incorrect command, the interpreter creatively resolves it into rm -rf / and wipes your hard drive.

It's a game. Like walking a tightrope. You have to see how long you can continue to use the operating system before losing all your data.

Sounds like fun :D:D:D:D
 
Any chance of dependency hell? Network interfaces which go down every 30 seconds? And when it finally deletes everything in the volume, it installs Vista?

You are being conservative. It should install Windows millennium.
 
How about: If the luser enters the wrong command the OS cuts his wrists for him?
 
It should automatically download at least 100 dependencies totaling 500mb, install them and then wipe the hard drive.
 
Ok, ok, WinME then... :D

It made Vista look like Windows 2000 ;)

Another tip for Suicide Linux. A randomiser that shuffles files around. Random change of filenames to Melvin (see if you get it). An app to stablise the OS called Prozac. Place random events in the Log file. To stop it, you should run the Valium app. If you type the word 'bridge', it is auto suicide. Shutdown parameter -R should be renamed -Resuscitate
