I drink the monster to see what the next number would have been.
if [[ $(shuf -i 1-6 -n 1) -eq 1 ]]; then sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-root fifor anyone who doesnt know the game is Buckshot Roulette, which is like Russian Roulette but with a shotgun
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
Canonically she uses Copland OS, which is named after an abandoned Mac OS 8 prototype but is functionally completely different. Given that Copland OS is built to access what works like a crossbreed between the internet and and the Zone from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games, I think it’s reassuring that we don’t have it in our world.
Copland was supposed to take over the world at the time the anime was made, so that makes sense. Didn’t quite turn it that way, of course, which is probably for the better.
Back in the good old days I used to play kmem-roulette: Write a random value into a random address of /proc/kmem until the system crashed. That was much more fun, as on the way there was also the possibility that the kernel might just start wreaking havoc in some random files. No wonder they removed the kmem file in the end.
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,
Fair, I was trying to be cheeky and here you are shutting me up with a compiler level “nope”. Take your +1.
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)Let me guess, you’re not using Windows?
IsADirectoryError: [Errno 21] Is a directory: 'C:\Windows\System32'At least use
shutil.rmtreefor some semblance of possibility.Also, the backslashes need to be escaped I believe
Or just use forward slashes like someone sane!
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.
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
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.
