When XKCD did this years ago, it was actually funny. Also, it supported more commands than just 'ls' and 'pwd'.


And the XKCD version is even open source: https://github.com/chromakode/xkcdfools

They could've just forked it and added or removed commands.


Checkout the templates object in the browser terminal to find all of the easter eggs (-'s can be replaced with spaces):

easter egg

business-cat

wizard

sudo-make-me-a-sandwhich

sudo shutdown


pwd also works


good way to poach potential future full-times/interns from other companies :)


Hah! Pretty funny. Run this one: sudo rm -rf /


Not sanitized for XSS. Try <script>alert('XSS')</script>


try 'easter egg' for a pleasant surprise


DMCA notices are pleasant indeed.


sudo make me a sandwich

returns what you'd expect.


Javascript errors in Chrome Dev Windows.


What errors?
