BREAKING NEWS:

BASH abandoned due to critical security vulnerability

and no one believing it for the first few minutes

This really happened to the sudo program although it was patched 😅

I'm not into tattoos (and thus I have none) but this cute little "hello world" made me giggle. Should I ever take one, this would make a good candidate
