Personally I like getting insulted by my tools. I always put `Defaults insults` in my /etc/sudoers file so every time I enter the wrong password, I get insulted. I wish more tools supported this. I think computing in general is fun, and wish more tools had fun things like this.

    $ sudo whoami

    [sudo] password for user:
    Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!

    [sudo] password for user:
    Your mind just hasn't been the same since the electro-shock, has it?

    [sudo] password for user:
    sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts

TIL.

Reminds me of the days installing sl on FreeBSD servers. Someone typos the most common and basic of commands and they watch a steam locomotive journey across their screen. It even has different versions based on common ls switches.

And I just found it's still available. https://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/displays-animations-when-acci...
