CALL THIS A FUCKING FILESYSTEM?

$ ls -l ../parrot-clean/ops/core.ops 
-rw-r--r--  8 nick  nick  25106 19 Nov 15:35 ../parrot-clean/ops/core.ops
$ ln ../parrot-clean/ops/core.ops ops/core.ops
$ ls -l ops/core.ops 
----------  1 root  wheel  0  6 Oct  2003 ops/core.ops


Yes, that's right. If I hardlink a file owned by *me*, then it's quite
correct for it to be owned by *root* now.

And I can repeat this little loop ad nauseum.

Nothing short of rebooting will cure it.

I KNOW, BECAUSE I'VE BEEN HERE FUCKING SO MANY TIMES BEFORE.

You're corrupting your data structures in RAM, FUCKTARD. I'm praying you don't
manage to SHIT the corruption to the disk, given how awe inspiring the OS X
disk recovery tools are.

People pay money for this CRAP? I can get disk corruption on Linux for free,
if that's what I want.
