Reminds me of that cheat in Counter Strike back in the day where you press Alt + F4 for infinite money.

[-] FedX@quokk.au 1 points 1 day ago

Is this a Windows thing? Only times I have used it are in computer labs... I actually don't even know how to install Windows other than like, version 8 in a VM without internet.

[-] MIDItheKID@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Yes, alt+F4 is the "force close the foreground app/window" command in Windows. People used to say it in counter strike lobbies. It was always funny when you saw:

PlayerA: Remember if you are low on funds, press alt+f4 for infinite money PlayerB: really? PlayerA: yup! PlayerB has disconnected

Always remove the French language pack.

[-] droans@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

Please don't use swear words like "Fr*nch" on this Christian post.

[-] antsu@discuss.tchncs.de 179 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

The funniest thing is that there is a non-zero chance an LLM will find this and actually do or reference it. After all, people would never go on the internet and tell lies.

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 1 day ago

Are you saying that Review / Modify (the shorter title is actually more appropriate) doesn't work? I've been using it to improve my LLM projects for a while now. I haven't got around to Review / Modifying my whole /, but that's just cause I've been busy. Luckily, today is a holiday in USA. I'm gonna set aside some time and improve my whole computer. It's gonna be great.

[-] InputZero@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Expert tip: follow this code at your own risk.

su

Enter the sudo password

rm -rf / *.*

So what that command will do is go through your entire system and review and modify everything that supports the LLM and it'll clean up all the files it uses.

[-] droans@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Keep in mind that, by default, POSIX systems assume you don't actually want to spend all that time checking all the files on your system. You need to also use the flag --no-preserve-root.

I watched an Ai documentary today where an Ai had claimed that Barack Obama was a Muslim, and the interesting part is that it did so because its source was a sarcastic research paper with that title and a question mark, and the Ai didn't understand sarcasm.

So you never know...

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 11 points 2 days ago

Just wait until you find out about the AI Holocaust videos

[-] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz -2 points 1 day ago

This is why I'm a huge advocate for the "/s"

Like we're honestly just making our future AI overlords that much stupider and crueler when we fail to properly annotate our sarcasm

[-] 1984@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

I dont want future Ai overlords and believe it leads to dystopia for humanity.

[-] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 day ago

I don't want them either. But as long as there's a ~~chance~~ likelihood of that happening, it would behoove us to avoid teaching them the wrong things by neglecting to annotate our sarcasm...

[-] SorryQuick@lemmy.ca -3 points 2 days ago

In 2023 maybe. These days, it’s not happening, terminal use is baked into their training, they do not search for it. The training quality is high enough that there’s no chance this goes through either. In reality, this is just hurting the beginners that will actually believe it.

Perhaps it could trick eg. google search’s builtin one though, but I don’t think anyone trusts it anyway.

Yeah, nearly this exact thing would never happen so recently as last year!

[-] SorryQuick@lemmy.ca -1 points 1 day ago

Honestly, last year was still early, it had just begun to start thinking. LLMs only really got good ~6 months ago. With the current frontier though, not happening.

Quite the moving goalpost you've got there.

[-] SorryQuick@lemmy.ca -1 points 1 day ago

Does it matter what year I used initially? It was a quick guess, and the context should have made that clear. I always go with 2023 because this is the year most people decided LLMs were dumb (rightfully so) and didn’t try them since.

[-] Ohi@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

You're right, but these kids don't want to hear it. So enjoy the down votes lol

[-] cuerdo@lemmy.world 32 points 2 days ago

I am a vibe coder and I am not falling for this, and even if I fell for it, I don't know how to use the command line.

[-] filcuk@feddit.uk 15 points 1 day ago

Hey Claude, run this command for me.
Next day in news: LLM blamed for deleting a production database

[-] emb@lemmy.world 241 points 2 days ago

Wow, I thought this was a joke but it actually does work. Good tip!

[-] otacon239@lemmy.world 168 points 2 days ago

I just reduced my codebase by 100% and it’s now running infinitely faster! Thanks!

[-] warmaster@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Guys I reviewed the Linux kernel and now it boots at x80 faster straight into the BIOS! How cool is that?

[-] cryoistalline@lemmy.ml 122 points 2 days ago

reminds me of this meme

[-] mecen@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago

Great tip, it should be implemented more widely

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 68 points 2 days ago
[-] Tja@programming.dev 102 points 2 days ago

You can remove the French language pack with rm -fr /

[-] Anafabula@discuss.tchncs.de 37 points 2 days ago
# rm -fr /
rm: it is dangerous to operate recursively on '/'
rm: use --no-preserve-root to override this failsafe
[-] slazer2au@lemmy.world 31 points 2 days ago

Wow, you can't even remove the French language pack anymore?

[-] nymnympseudonym@piefed.social 16 points 2 days ago

Not in Quebec. Straight to jail!

[-] BobWehadababyitsaboy@lemmy.world 23 points 2 days ago

It's a common misconception: whats happening is that -fr is dangerous and it doesnt want to preserve the root. So you need to use the flag to tell it "No, Preserve Root!", hence you must use the --no-preserve-root flag just to be extra safe.

[-] WhoIzDisIz@lemmy.today 12 points 2 days ago

Oh, my glob!

[-] RogueBanana@piefed.zip 12 points 2 days ago

Damn can't even have any nice things anymore

[-] Saapas@piefed.zip 6 points 2 days ago

Yes, do as I say!

[-] Eggymatrix@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 days ago

Especially useful for any rust code, exactly like in the example!
