For a small country that's known for its strong sunshine, windy weather, geothermal activity, rivers and lakes, and being an archipelago surrounded by tidal activity, we sure love oil and gas.

Judge: You're accused of corrupting critical system files on governments Linux server. How do you plead?

Defendant: I forgot if it was ‘:wqa’ or ‘:x!’ 🥺

I think the argument that private enterprise is "more efficient" is long dead in the water.

//Did you know you can colorize and print all IP addresses and interfaces on Linux in a tabular format for better readability? The syntax is:

ip -br -c addr show
ip -br -c link show

See our ip command guide www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-ip... pretty cool, huh?
