Debian likes update foreplay before going straight to upgrade 

 My problem was I was using the latest release, not LTS, and all the packages were unmaintained 😂 

 Yes, also anytime serious warnings are issued to you from apt before an upgrade is a bit of a quick scare 

 when I was learning linux I just make sudo chmod 777 -R / to stop asking for folder permission and corrupt the system, I became unable to shutdown using the system or connect pendrive 

 Reminds me of that time that I deleted an iSCSI disk (disk no. 5) and then disks no. 6, 7 and 8 for some reason were renamed automatically, on-the-fly, to no. 5, 6 and 7. Fileserver started writing to the mailserver disk, mailserver started writing to a webserver disk, etc. Shit was beyond repair and I spent much of the weekend doing disaster recovery 

This was also the weekend I was taught the disadvantage of RAID 5 the hard way (it's slowwww 🐌), RAID 10 ftw 

 lol that sounds extremely painful 

 nodejs isn't the nightmare it was 6 years ago but it's still pretty nasty, i mostly don't have any problems these days, but back then, endless problems with dependencies in NPM and version this and polyfill that
