Doing nothing is way better than running random commands suggested by AI, or anyone for that matter, if you don’t know what it does. I’ve seen AI suggest to run rm -rf ~/

Yeah, sorry for assuming it’s obvious. Maybe I’ve been around Linux people too much xD
AngryCommieKender is mostly right. It would delete every file and directory in your home directory, which is the Linux equivalent of the Users/<username> folder on Windows. It’s where all of your Documents, Pictures, Downloads, config files, and the likes are stored.
I’m not sure it’s a protected action, since it’s not the actual root of the computer. But, I’ve never tried, so I don’t know :P
