The joke is about the bin/ directory on Linux, which contains the binaries of the system (also called executables) which can break the system if you delete it, and also refer to the paper bin where all your trash files go and people tend to delete usually.
Ah, I don't usually think of trash bins by that term
Could also be referring to something like ~/.local/bin, where you remove unnecessary user-only programs vs. /use/bin where you remove system essential ones.
I think of the trash as just "trash." Thanks for explaining the joke.
Surely it should be "cleaned the bin", right? Dialect issues complicate things but the basic problem seems to be that the joke is just ungrammatical.
