“rm -rf *”
I see what you did there...
(Lest someone new to Linux reads this and tries it, that command will wipe your entire drive.)

Depends upon what directory you are in If you're in /, you'll get the vast majority of your drive. If you're in your home directory, it will only toast your personal files. It also won't match any .files or .directories in the current directory, but would get them in subdirectories.
I've actually done this before. It's fun watching the computer die.
