we don't unzip, we tar
would tar --help count
Since a competent typist could type that in at most 3 seconds, it's worth a shot.
what? 3 seconds for "tar --help"???, I could type that out faster in my phone? In a physical keyboard you could type thar in a fraction of a second?
you could type thar in a fraction of a second?
*boom*
lol that happens when I type in my phone, and my bad I was stupid enough to not read at most.
They also failed to read "at most".
It should, as long as you don't try to abbreviate it as tar -h though... the short form is tar -? which illustrates the joke nicely
Probably not, the double-dash long commandline option is a GNU extension and isn't guaranteed to work with every tar implementation.
I'd use tar -help and we'd all die
Is
man tar
a Tar command or a Man command?
I use the mnemonic "extract ze file" for tar -xzf
tar -xcvf file.tar.gz /dev/random
Tear would be funnier. You tear the tar open.
I love this meme format so much lmao
since when did assign and create exist? back in the day all the pirates used daemontools to mount stuff... and everyone made new files in whatever program edits them...
You forgot tar
I guess it depends which distro
I did not give consent to be touched.
Sudo touch
(Very rapey)
Between what?
Between what?
god i wish someone would unzip - mount - touch me rn
Shouldn't we get to know each other first?
At least take me out to coffee first...
chmod -R 777 me
Do whatever you want to me.
Recursive? I hope you don't have children
I understood that more as "what's inside me".
Ah, that we can work with
Alright. See that pile of dirty laundry there?
This makes 007 seem like a wanker.
