real question is how do you pronounce chmod
“chemod”
The CH from channel and then mod
c h mod
shmod. and then cho-wn (ch’own? cho-un?)
and of course, hweel (jk on this one)
“c h m o d”
Just like “l s” and “p a c m a n”
I pronounce it chmod, you?
I pronounce it the way it’s written.

This is drake erasure and I’m LOVING EVERY MINUTE OF IT, JERRY
Yo dawg, heard you like memes
chmod -R ug+rwX,o=r *
Such a beautiful language.
Nope, +x for life

I don’t use chmod nearly often enough to remember these numbers. I know there’s a mathematical way to figure it out, but I cba to do that when u+wrx more or less tells me exactly what it does (grant the User Write, Read, and eXecute permissions)
4 read, 2 write, 1 execute.
That’s it. Add them up for whatever you want.
But those are different
Yeah, not only does
+xleave read/write permissions untouched, it also only makes it executable for the user, not for everyone and their cat.Cat doesn’t execute anything tho, it just reads and gives output
Except if you use kitty terminal emulator with unsecure remote access. Issue
Then with cat, you could execute arbitrary commands…
The cat command executes the cat program.
What happens when u try to cat the cat program, is that considered reading or executing
Both, they are not mutually exclusive.
Had to be done for the joke. :)
chmod -R 777 /galaxy brainchmod 666 so only the devil can execute it
chmod -R 600 ~/, because I dont trust anyone, not even myself.I forgor the tilde and its taking a long time. wat do
sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-rootStart from scratch
Tilde is a shortcut to /home/palordrolap
False. It’s a shell synonym for /home/ah-ha-ha-nice-try-you-are-not-getting-my-real-homedir-name
… it’s a PITA to type out longhand, let me tell you.
this but in reverse 🤷♀️
When I start fucking with chmod, it happens way too often that what I want to do only works after I executed
chmod 777…May I interest you in a nice “chown”?
You can actually do
chmod +777,u+rwx,go-w footo make the logic easier if you want to force a starting assumption.chmod -R 777 /Why the fuck am I still getting permission errors
sudo

Chmod 777 I live erratically without consequence.
chmod -R -x *
If you don’t add the leading digit (out of respect) for the sticky/setgid/setuid bits, do you even Linux?
chmod 755for when setting permissions to directories.chmod +xfor making something executable right when I am about to run it.
