This one is for those of you that use the Linux terminal frequently and constantly make minor typos in commands, or forget to run something as root or miss a space somewhere. All you need to do is after the mistake type "Fuck" and it will correct it, like if you typed aptget install something, the command would figure out you meant apt get install s
