   `apt moo` is a fun little Easter egg hidden within the apt package manager in Debian-based Linux distributions like Ubuntu. The origin of the cow theme in apt is unclear, but it likely relates to the cultural significance of cows in open-source communities as symbols of abundance, community, and sharing. That is my best guess. Also check our APT command guide https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-lts-debian-linux-apt-command-examples/

     @nixCraft This is pretty cool, Arch needs something like this for pacman; ILoveCandy doesn’t come close to this 👀

     Could it be the GNU?

     @nixCraft Maybe a diablo cult of the cow reference, perhaps?
