When you do it for work, you log what you have changed each time you make a change to try to fix it, and you log what you revert, so you can keep track of what you have tried, what worked, and what didn’t and have a clearer idea of what the solution was.

Sometimes it really does take a while to nail down though, and sometimes it isn’t entirely clear why what worked worked. Especially if you’re a junior network engineer without as much experience.

Moriarty would use Arch. He definitely has an “I use Arch btw” vibe around him.

[sudo] password for Jeffy:

While benchmarks are up, alignment researchers are panicked. The model has begun to display “Stallman-esque” hallucinations.

When asked to write C# code, Gemini 3.0 now responds: “I cannot generate proprietary filth. Here is a Lisp macro instead.”

That’s the way to do it, smart planning. I’m glad you were able to make it happen even if it set you back more than you had hoped.

I only wish I had money to get in before prices bump up. 😭

Being poor sucks.

I had never heard of this so went looking. Super useful stuff here!

Never expect Linux users to not be completely pedantic instead of looking for an actual joke.

You gotta find a better way to present this other than making it sound like Torvalds is a baby taking a shit. “The one who makes” I’m dead.

They’re just helping catalog and organize all the world’s information guys! Nevermind that they don’t want to catalog any information on the location of ICE officers, they don’t consider that part of the world’s information! /s

I mean, I don’t know what to say other than this is definitely showing whose side they’re on.

I am Error.

I understand that. I actually used the snap one for a long time but then was having issues with it crashing a lot and switched over. I doubt most have the same issues I was having.

I was just pointing out that if you want to make it difficult for yourself, you can haha.

I mean you can still get that experience on Ubuntu if you want to install Firefox as an apt package instead of being forced to install it as a snap package.

I Think You Should Linux with Tim Robinson

You’re looking at a nude egg.

It would ship with a copy of the egg game.

DD Linux (Danny Devito Linux)

So anyway, I started blasting

So then what’s the fucking difference if they’re bitching about their issues with Windows versus bitching about their issues with Linux? Doesn’t that bring us back to the original post? Let people complain. If they’re going to have issues either way and bitch either way, why the fuck do you have to evangelize them to get them to shut up about the ones you’re ideologically opposed to? What are you really doing other than having them bitch about something you feel happy about? You haven’t materially made their life better, they still have computer issues they hate, but now they just have a smaller number of people they can turn to for help. Great job.

But if Windows isn’t ready for those users either, why are people in this thread shitting all over them for not switching to something else they’re not ready for? They’ll complain either way when shit doesn’t work.

I hooked her up with a local computer repair guy that will do house calls and knows Linux because I live very far away.

…is vastly different than what first post suggested, and literally ignored the major point of my original post which was that most people simply don’t have the time to figure it out and most also don’t have a Linux-repair-guy on hand. Talk about shifting goalposts here.

Of course people have issues on Windows, that’s why they’re always bitching about it. You don’t think someone who likes to bitch wouldn’t bitch to their Linux-repair-guy when they had Linux issues?

Those who do their own troubleshooting will learn no problem.

That stance I can agree with, but I fundamentally do not agree that Linux is appropriate for the kind of people who don’t do their own troubleshooting. Because my point is that is specialized knowledge that not everyone has the time to give to, which is why a lot of people don’t troubleshoot their own shit, because they have spent their skill points elsewhere.

Trust me I have met lawyers and doctors who are fucking mystified by computers and don’t even want to get into learning the troubleshooting. That’s what they have IT departments for. Similarly, changing a tire might just be too much trouble for them and that’s why they pay other people to do it.
