Pros of Linux: does exactly what you ask it to do.
Cons of Linux: does exactly what you ask it to do.
Reminds me of my first day of a computer programming class. My teacher told us to write down instructions on how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Then he would follow the instructions.
“Put the peanut butter inside two slices of bread.” He’d grab the jar of peanut butter and put the whole jar inside two slices of bread
“Grab a knife and scoop out the peanut butter.” He’d start stabbing the lid.
Beautiful analogy of what it’s like to deal with technology
that’s good, but real computer programming is more like
Error: file “PeanutButter.h” not found
Exit status code 1
That’s because you’re a noob and forgot to add this at the end:
If work == false: fix(yourself)What language is this capital I If acceptable and how do I purge it from my brain.
English and you purge it by invading Britain and forcing them to speak a cool language like Italian or Spanish
Exit status code -3736228494
In a Java program that isn’t supposed to be able to break like that
sudo rm -rf /*Modern operating systems question you and ask you to input —no-preserve-root, unfortunately
sudo makemehappy
Pls?
user is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported. bash: Pls?: command not found
“I can actually control and issue commands by myself instead of relying on shady installers and other type of automated-related stuff?”
“Whoooooa, whoa now buddy… that is too much.”
It does exactly what the people on the internet are telling me to make it do. There’s a big difference.
I know it’s hard to accept, but Linux (no matter the distro) requires external help a lot more than Windows or OSX, even for people who are tech literate.
External help on linux: actual people responding, explicit error messages and commands, everything transparent.
External help on windows: try reinstalling drivers/vc redist, bro. marked as solved, OP and a bunch of other people still saying it didn’t do shit
Also just disagree on needing any more help. Not my experience at all.
Okay but have you been on the arch fourms? Sometimes people are nice and sometimes it’s “bro just read the wiki” when the user obviously already had.
The arch community is certainly an exception, not the rule.
bro just google it
Preach. I love Linux. I run PopOS and have tried several distros. I ran Linux only from 2008-2013. It’s gotten so much better than it used to. But there is still so much to do if we ever want to reach mass desktop adoption.
I just want to play modded games but at the same time not have Microsoft spy on me
A good goal to have. I’m super happy with the work Steam has done to make more games compatible. 5 years ago I’d say less than 5% of my library would have worked in Linux and now it’s closer to 60-70%!
I got a new pc so I started messing around with linux on the old machine after 10 years or so from last using linux. The pc has an i7 from 2009 16g ram and gtx1060 and a ssd for os. Running popos. Going in and playing some steam games natively made me very happy with experience on that machine.
I have been tinkering with NixOS and my god is that true.
