In A UEFI World, "rm -rf /" Can Brick Your System
Excerpt: Running rm -rf / on any UEFI Linux distribution can potentially perma-brick your system. As a public service announcement, recursively removing all of your files from / is no longer recommended. On UEFI distributions by default where EFI variables are accessible via /sys, this can now mean trashing your UEFI implementation. There is this systemd bug report requesting that UEFI variables

So this is also for most no viable choice. This brings down either ext4 or XFS. Both file systems have a decade old code base and are quite mature. If you need the ability to shrink a file system, it's ext4. If you are on the conservative side, it's also quite ext4. If you are feeling a...

Filenames with "special" characters (äöü€¶) on SMB share of Linkstation HD-HLAN250
