Does this really work? Wouldn't
rmremove itself in/binearly in the process?I think it would continue even after it's own deletion as the binary is already loaded into memory, so process is not dependent on the file system. Still doubt that it'll complete successfully. Most likely the system crashes in the middle.

Yes, though you could also do
rm -rf /*afaik to not need--no-preserve-rootEdit: I just realized that the
*is already in the meme. So this should already work as is. Alternatively you could always use the good old way of "act now and remove all French roots of your system:rm -fr / --no-preserve-root"i dont get why you can't just do
sudo rm -fr /because it won't let you do that:
