Behold, the inevitable conclusion of asking ChatGPT "how to free up space on Linux." Everything was going so well until it wasn't. Those reassuring green "OK" messages lulling you into a false sense of security before the system realizes someone just deleted its ability to, you know, execute programs . The dynamic linker is basically the thing that loads libraries when you run programs. Delete that and... well... *gestures at the red error messages*. Just another day of AI-assisted system administration - works perfectly until your computer transforms into an expensive paperweight.

Linus finally found the ultimate disciplinary tool for kernel developers: threatening them with Rust. It's like telling your kids they'll have to eat vegetables if they don't behave, except the vegetables are memory safety and the kids are C programmers who've been writing unsafe code since 1991. The satire nails it—Rust was "created as a way to punish software developers" who "really had it coming." Because nothing says punishment like borrow checkers, lifetimes, and compiler errors that read like philosophical dissertations. The best part? One developer is relieved it's not Perl. That's how you know things have gotten serious—when Rust is the *merciful* option. Torvalds wielding Rust as a threat is peak Linux energy. "Shape up or you're rewriting that driver with lifetime annotations."
