That is also exactly how you install Fedora. They’ve stripped away so many options and turned it into a nextnextnextdone thing. I’m not here to advocate that people should swap to Linux. I am just frustrated when the myth that linux is hard to install keep getting thrown around. I often get the impression that people talk about linux with 10+ year out of date information.

If you’re installing Fedora, then I would say it is far easier than installing Windows. I think Linux Mint and Ubuntu are roughly the same difficulty to install as Windows. Arch, Gentoo and a bunch of other distros expect you to know a bunch more and be ready to learn, those are definitely going to be hard for a first timer.

Reading this thread makes me so happy I long ago lost interest in watching sports. It sounds like a complete headache to be a fan of any sport these days.

Noone will ever take my full-size keyboard from me and I have no issues getting laid, I just don’t want to most of the time.

There were 2 games compromising user data on the ps3? Which ones were those?

That is kind of what parasites do though.

What about the last dentist?

I have family members who have not been able to ignore a single ad. Ads are by definition predatory. Some of us being able to tune them out to a large degree just means we’re not the prey they’re looking for.

I thought UE4 was bad… But then UE5 came along.

I am not entirely sure that is a Vista thing. I recall repairing and reinstalling 95, 98 and XP for less tech savvy friends for this same reason.

Often you’re able to cancel it right away and still enjoy the entire free trial period. At least that used to be possible on some of those services offering free trials, I haven’t used any for years.

Turqouise magic.

The bottom 2 categories feel like a personal attack on me.

Or you have to get onto a road full of people who should never have been allowed to get a license.

Too many millenials obsessed with having a chihuahua or some shit.

Oh wow. What did they do to upset the spiders that much?

It was Slackware… Back in the late 90s. Do not ask me about how kid me managed that, all I recall is endless terminals, kernel panics and eventually getting a desktop through some arcane means I can’t remember.

I didn’t return to linux for many years after that experience.

I still have the 1996 edition of Slackware Linux Unleashed and the CD in my bookshelf as a reminder.

Friends are going to care if they’re actually friends.
