Tip: how to remove the phrases like "fortune cookie" when starting the terminal

If you are a user of Linux Mint or some distro that when starting a terminal displays an ascii drawing with some phrase (generally stupid) in the style of «fortune cookie»And you're dying to remove it, do the following: Edit the file /etc/bash.bashrc and comment the line that says / usr / bin / mint-fortune. Save the changes and start the terminal again. Ready!

    Clear. The script would have to be modified. 🙂
    Cheers! Paul.

    Friends pro-Ubuntureros: This solution is not valid for all distros. For Slackware, here:

    chmod -x /etc/profile.d/bsd-games-login-fortune.*

    I forgot, if someone else is going to use the terminal and we don't want to leave the last activity that appears in the framebuffer:

    .bash_logout:
    clear
    I miss Bye!

    Che, Pablo, explain what it is to comment, since not everyone will know here. And how is it done, obviously. = P
    gedit /etc/bash.bashrc
    #for example
    sarasa sarasa ...
    Regards!

    It would be good if you could tell us how to access it, right?
    Cheers! Paul.

    There is a graphical option for mint that does the same and easier.
