Yeah, that’s the point, but if you’re as much of an adult as you seem to think you are, you should be grown up enough to push past a little backlash to a tonedeaf question. Maybe learn something from it? Idk

Edit about the video games: You get to do whatever you want when you’ve grown up. It’s cool, you’ll love it.

It honestly sounds like the kind of question people ask when they’re severely bored. When I get bored like that I play guitar or video games, so as not to say bubble-headed crap on the internet.

I meant to say internet. Tysm for correcting me. I’m truly grateful and humbly request that you take an unchaperoned bath with my teenage daughters.

True, but from my distro-hopping I learned there are quite a few Linux distros that throw tantrums when you try to install w/o wifi, and some ISOs that flat out don’t allow it. I’m not technically sharp enough to find the link, but this and most of my other problems with Linux went away when I stopped using distros built with systemd.

CachyOS is fast, sure. But have you tried Void? MX? Artix? PCLinuxOS? All very fast, and way fewer tantrums/stability issues. Systemd acts like a bureaucrat that checked out long ago, but keeps the job because of the benefits and does it as spitefully as possible. It’s about what I’d expect from a corp like Red Hat, and one day it’ll ask for your government ID to install.

The Linux community should get serious about systemd and how it talks to newcomers about it. It’s annoying now, and it’ll be a liability later.

Mine’s great, but it takes so long that by the time it proves correct, everyone has the AHA face and says “boy i wish someone had told me this 15 yrs ago before it was too late”.
