Name your daughter Agnes, get some BDSM revenge. Seems legit.

why tf wouldn’t OP be better served by a provided repo? Literally a add it to the sources.list and never think about updates again.

yay, the brutal science man to the rescue!

where_am_i, to programmer_humor in Bug Thread

Nothing like receiving a GitHub email with a page of traceback cuz someone replied to an issue thread. It looks like they’re running anaconda on windows. And their problem is probably something else. Oh gosh, why did I waste my brain looking into this traceback? But sure this was very relevant to the discussion.

Harlem Shake was the coolest hype in existence.

where_am_i, to linux in Switched from Ubuntu to Debian yesterday

you hit apt update and get an add for Ubuntu pro. Invasive ads in my linux? no thanks.

where_am_i, to linux in Thinking about making the big switch – recommend me a distro!

None of those people have a slightest clue. Your options really are: ubuntu vanilla and maybe pop os.

Everything else will very quickly require you to read through some obscure docs and bash your head against the terminal.

Vanilla Ubuntu, not kubuntu/xubuntu/whateverbuntu is the only polished and documented distro. After a year or two of that you’ll be ready to consider this “what distro” question.

where_am_i, to science_memes in your time has come, mortal

there’s always an xkcd

where_am_i, to linuxmemes in Updates

Time to update the meme.

  1. windows: oh no, I was in a meeting!
  2. mac: oh no, I need a new mac for this to work!
  3. Linux: I’m afraid to install this, my graphics will probably break again!

for ffs, please, ban this troll.

And if you’re a real human, I have a recommendation: buy a dictionary. Once you can read simple words, move to coffee maker manuals. From there to children’s books. And so, maybe one day, you will be able to figure out how to read a basic “getting started with ubuntu” article or something. You just switched to a complete different operating system and act so entitled as in “where is the start menu, this OS is so confusing”.

The Linux community isn’t toxic, it’s the average non-linux user being as dumb as rock. And on top of that is also lazy.

Because it’s an asinine practice from which windows is moving away through winget, and which made the open source community to write a package manager for mac from scratch – homebrew.

And if you think about it for a second, you will realize that it doesn’t exist on Android and iOS at all. E.g. 99% of users only install from a centralized repository called “appstore” and nobody is ever downloading an executable installer.

Basically, you’re uninformed, and blatantly defending your uneducated way of installing software.

No, you don’t. Bad advise. Use repos.
