@Felthry So, you start with clives, turn them into olives, then combine those... and you get lives! It's beautiful!
explaining the joke
So, when you're compiling C programs you start out with .c files.
You then compile these into .o "object" files.
Then you link them together into the actual program, which on Unix doesn't have any file extension.
So "c" -> "o" -> "".

@IceWolf bigclive is a youtube person who does teardowns of sketchy, safety-last electronics he gets for Suspiciously Cheap from ebay and/or aliexpress. He frequently manages to find innocuous-looking objects that have exposed metal live at mains voltage.
