Last night I had a virtual machine up on my Mac running Arch Linux. I had 6 of my 8 gigs of ram allocated to the VM. Well I left it open last night when I went to bed and forgot about it this morning. My wife just called me at work to say something is wrong with the Mac. "Everything is running slowly and it looks different." I had to walk her through the process to shut it down, but she got to run her first Linux command: sudo shutdown now.

She is now calling herself a hacker...

    @I2olanD maybe I will make her a devRant account with hackergiiirl as the handle.

    cheers from a fellow moron who uses a mac just to launch a VM on which to do everything, i know it feels wrong, and i know that i will never bother installing arch on bare metal on a iMac

    @Qchmqs yeah I use the Mac as a Mac only when I'm doing iOS development. Anything else is only Arch VM.

    Cute story but you realize you could have made life easier by having her suspend the virtual machine instead.
