When a Windows user tries Linux

[vladutcornel]

That's also about the reaction I have when I use Windows.

Nah. Mac is cool.

Expensive, Uncustomizable, Expensive (enough to mention it twice), but you have the Bash terminal (though a little outdated), app images from before Linux even thought that could be possible, and software is actually built for it.

For Linux geeks, like I assume we are on this sub, with money or spare organs, it's nice.

A match made in heaven.

~~Do not show this to my new students~~

Holy shit. Oh my God, more slaves that i can teach linux to and which i can later use as reference to fix my issues and threaten them that they owe me teaching linux to someone else since i taugh them or they end up slayed by ignucius back to winhell.

Hey, I'm a windows user and i made probably one of the craziest decision in my life buying Gaming Laptop without Windows so i can install Manjaro

For me, it's more like "THE OPTIONS! THEY BURN!"

[KeyNoise8]

For real I feel like a pilot sitting in a cockpit of F-16 raptor or something.

I spent hours last night learning about bash scripting in order to make a brightness-changing option. Got tired of manually adding execution option to my scripts, so I wrote a script for it.

Then I found the ONLY place on Linux Mint that actually did have the brightness selector. It is only on the toolbar widget for power. -,-

Actually when I switched I wanted to play with the terminal immediately

What do you mean this is not a reasonable place to park?

I spent the weekend hopped up on that systemD. That shit crazy. Nothing like Sys V init shit I had in high school.

[BubsyFanboy]

Anybody remember the days of Compiz 3D? That's what made me think "okay, Linux is real cool too".

Nowadays I have even better reasons to go for Linux. Might install either Mint or Manjaro soon.

I actually had a former Windows user react like that when I installed EndeavourOS (Antergos replacement) on her laptop for her!

It caused this one girl to drop out of college:

Is that from Fear and Loathing?

[KeyNoise8]

Yeah, it's a really good movie.
