Reminds me of the DOS days of my youth.
fdisk does not stand for friendly disk.

Sounds like someone's not up to date with their backups.
worst case for me would be ereasing my ventoy drive.
cause i for sure wont be partitioning any of my nvme drives. so the only mistake i can make is like type sda instead of sdb which would just be another usb drive🤷
I want a immutible Linux that restricts access to critical components. I wouldn't mind running my desktop in a container.
NixOS store (app folder) is read only. You literally can't mess with it. It doesn't really need a container, most things are locked down already. Of course you could mess up your home folder, but that's on you then
Yeah once I forgot I had an external drive on one of the USB ports on my PC and created an Ubuntu drive with dd and just sent it do /dev/sdb ..lost all movies I had on it. After that I always check with df -h or fdisk -l
