Oh never thought about using ls to “test” things, thnx!

Yeah agree, its a work provided laptop, they allowed local admin etc but require Windows (at least that is) so just glad they gave me a HP laptop with 500GB SSD and for me certain freedom to configure dual boot etc
Got chills down my spine initially but was a “good” scare … the one which makes me carefull next time before any real damage is done. 🙈👍
Strange thing is, instead of moving folders (which isnt possible without root anyway) it looked like some of them got copied instead. Compared some folders from /boot/grub with the dump in my homefolder and they were the same files (number and names etc).
I took a deep breath (was not being root, how bad could it be?) and rebooted. Luckily everything seemed fine.
Grub letting me choose between Debian and Win11 (its a laptop from my employer) and both booted if choosen. Thanks for all the advice.
If the actual command was this … mv /*/*/* ./
would moving stuff out of /boot or /dev folders make more sense?
Ah, keen eye, corrected the title and body text to match the screenshot. (From terminal history so I think thats what I actually ran)
Oh that worked, thnx!!
I only have a backup of my own personal files, not of the whole system. So my question about impact is about not having to do a fresh install.
Also I have dual boot and grub etc do scare me. 😁
I didnt work as root by the way …
Ouch … feel so stupid.
Ah, I was no root … that should lower the impact …
Yeah, I see, command wildcard asterix being markdown bold. Original command:

Wake me up when they get a drone droning drone drones …
Also the article doesnt have any critical question how BlueSky is a “mediated” network instead of decentralised …
Its not like Ikea standardised that for use in dozens of cabinets …
I also like to measure in jetwing money … This is like half a jetwing.
Rather the exeption then rule, but it can be done if instances add it. For example social.edu.nl for all vocational and higher education in NL uses OpenConext to let you log in with your institution account.
That … makes a lot of sense, thanks 🙏🙏
