ONE OF US ! ONE OF US !

is this your production machine? If yes, dont type random commands until you know exactly what they are.

I know it's Linux and you can try many things as you want, but unless you are very experienced, dont do it on your main laptop.

It is pretty difficult because you can do things like installing new enviroments or try out different hacks for free. If you really want to tinker, do it on a 2nd laptop or just in Virtual Machine.

As this is bazzite, an immutable distro, the neat part is: if you reach finding out phase after fucking around, simply reboot and chose the previous version during boot. Very convenient for people who like to mess around with their systems :D
