Well played. Closest thing we have to okbuddylinux

The owner of gamingonlinux? The same guy was a mod on the !linux_gaming@lemmy.ml community until they were caught abusing their moderator powers? Who then deleted their account and complained on mastodon that it's stupid design that mod logs are public? That one? [Screenshot]

He was so horny all the time
it doesn't matter. In the end of the day they came
Thank you! I was pretty fucking sure there was stupidity related to Liam but could not for the life of me find anything in search.

Linux exists, so I keep coming

*Cumming

Oh to be a young lad experiencing linux for the first time again

Am enjoying it more than ever almost 20 years in.
For higher throughput in middle age, I recommend Edge-ing every so often, and then going back to a real browser.
Not knowing how anything works, being scared by errors that you don't know how to get around or deal with, not knowing alternatives for your former favourite apps to do things quickly, wondering if you get the peripherals you currently own to run?

naah thanks mate, hard pass.
- Not knowing how anything works
  
  I mean, that's how you start learning stuff - not knowing how something works
  
  Being scared by errors that you don't know how to get around or deal with
  
  Isn't that the case for every OS in existence? When something breaks, you don't know how to deal with it. Enter google/ddg/whatever
  
  Not knowing alternatives for your former favourite apps to do things quickly
  
  See point 1 - and yet there are Linux apps that let you do things quicker than Windows stuff. I can't imagine myself at this point having to use frigging photoshop to crop or add a border to a image when you could do that with a ´magick -crop´
  
  Wondering if you get the peripherals you currently own to run?
  
  Wasn't that the whole point of live images? Not that they will charge you for downloading them. And hardware support is infinitely better today than back in the day. Just look at what the folks at asahi did - that's nothing short of incredible
- Tossing Gentoo onto an old Pentium III box, typing emerge world and coming back four hours later to see if it's done was awesome.
  
  And no, it wasn't done compiling KDE yet.
  
  But I definitely wouldn't want to experiment with Linux on my only PC with no way to look things up if I break networking (or the whole system). Thankfully, this is no longer an issue in the age of smartphones.
- I feel like this supporting Windows servers and navigating Win 11/12 clients at work these days.
- There's also the fact that if you have modern hardware, you'll find that half the features that you paid for don't work properly in Linux (or at all). It's a great OS to keep an old PC alive, though.

I too was there for the release of the 2.6 kernel

Linux 2.6 released in December 2003. Gnome 2.6 released in March of 2004. At that point Linux was truly ready for the desktop and we've just spent the last twenty years waiting for the rest of the world to catch up.
I put off the switch so long because I didn't know what udev was but I understood that it was important.

I too, obtain great please from gaming on Linux.

"I constantly came" is the funny bit ;)
- Thank you for clarifying! My brain could only see this as an excerpt and I was not able to seperate it from the assumed rest of the sentence.
