Configuring WINE prefix...Didn’t the wannacry payload (yes, that one) actually work through wine? I remember the running joke was “Heh, finally something works in wine”
Just so the virus doesn’t feel left out.
Virus after: -What is this place?
Also virus: This is not my house, this is not my beautiful wife
Also virus: ooh look! There’s the mythological
Z:\drive! Always wanted to explore one of these
Relevant:
If they can take my unlocked device by force, they can probably also break my fingers to coerce me to unlock it See also: https://xkcd.com/538/
Randall is right in pointing out you need to consider your attack vectors, but this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take reasonable precautions
Most people are more likely to run into the type of attack OP references than someone who can break LUKS encryption stealing their device

I’m so writing a virus to just
sudo rm -fr /*Now that’s just mean
What does adding fur real do?
It’s for gen-alpha computers. Makes sure all them files are yeeted, no cap.
nice of you to remove the french language pack for them, makes for a lighter system!
It’s
-rfand not the other way around you godless heathensudo: command not foundYou have no power here!
Don’t forget
--no-preserve-root
I don’t think that applies since /* will just glob out to all the filenames in /
You’re right, I missed that

Stop with this stupid meme, it was false when it started and it is much more false now.
Linux has plenty of viruses, windows viruses are still functional under wine, and there are still the entire phishing and scam world.
I have yet to see a “virus” in the traditional sense targeting Linux.
I think malware has shifted significantly now that systems are designed with security in mind (both Windows and Linux)
But in that scene…
