+One of the things you mind want to do post-installation is mess around with
+profiles. There's a `default` profile in LXD that you can show with `lxc profile
+show default`.

 I've seen some people say that executing a fork bomb from inside a container is
 equivalent to executing it on the host. The fork bomb will blow up the whole
 system and render every application and container you're running inoperable.

 That's partially true because LXD _by default_ doesn't put a limit on how many
 processes a particular container can spawn. You can limit that number yourself
 by running

-Note that this doesn't _save_ you from fork bombs, all it does is prevent an
-affected container from affecting _other_ containers. If someone executes a fork
-bomb in a container, it'll be the same as if they executed it in a virtual

-container. If it was set to run at startup, you'll need to recreate the
-container, restore from a backup, revert to a snapshot, etc.
