When you first run sudo apt update on Linux and think you're a hacker

$This meme uses the popular Willem Dafoe scene from the 2002 Spider-Man film as a template. The top overlaid text reads "When you copy/paste and run \"sudo apt update\" in the terminal for the first time", and the bottom caption replaces the original film line with "You know, I'm something of a hacker myself". It humorously pokes fun at the overconfidence new Linux users often feel when they execute their first simple terminal command, jokingly framing the basic system update task as an advanced hacking achievement.$
