*groan*..Just happened to bust about 12 gigs of data from my hard
drive..No possibility of recovering..
When it comes to 'rm -rf'...Be Afraid..Be Very Very Afraid
File confirmation can be good in some cases, as you can see..
Well yeah... more so if it happens to be your friend's home folder...
:p Don't ask me what I did ;) (I am no con... I did it once to my
personal pic collection as well... I am happy I had the presence of
mind to do a Ctrl+C in time and reduce the damage to 20% of the
collection :) )
it moves on...
