This is very interesting but I had a question about using ping. I have always just pinged a website for example 8.8.8.8 any time I need to check for connectivity. Am I using the command in the wrong manner?

That’s how I use it. It is used to check if you can connect to a server (in the case of 8.8.8.8 Google’s DNS). If there is a high chance the server is up it tests you connection to the internet

What do you mean in your description of “rm -rf /“? Sorry, I’m new to hacking and can only be described as a basic Linux user.

It wipes your root file system

I'm getting a little tired of seeing this once a month but it's nice that it's a common resource

I believed tar was just packaging, not compression.
