Hi Folks,

I am going to be participating in Extra Life this year and created a script that will flip my monitor upside down for 5 minutes randomly. I am looking for some more ideas for simple scripts or commands that could be entertaining for some donation incentives.

As a side not I am currently using EndeavourOS and Sway.

In university we used to prank each other by accessing less knowledgeable colleagues' machines via ssh and running random commands. We would drive them nuts by ejecting the CD tray, or playing random wav files, or popping up silly websites. The lan was not really secure, neither were the passwords.
