  • I just wanted to install steam, but it wasn’t in the package manager list.

    Then I tried apt-get and that didnt work, I forgot why.

    You don’t have to do seriously advanced stuff on linux to run into issues without using the terminal.

    My point was, even if you actually do some advanced stuff on windows you still don’t have to use the terminal.

    It’s not realistic that you don’t have to use the terminal on linux if you want to do any more than web browsing and some text editing, etc.

    That doesn’t mean that linux is bad, but let’s be realistic about what it is.





  • It also breaks the flow of the video, which is why I have started skipping them. I noticed just how much nicer videos without any sponsorships are because you dont have to dedicate time to lead into and out of an ad and can continue the video without explaining everything twice.

    I also dont see any value gained by me or the creator if I fully watch the 100th squarespace commercial, as I dont get to hear anything new.

    But the most egregious videos are where they try to hide that they are transitioning into an ad, like by creating some minute long argument that leads from the topic to the sponsor. Which leads to me not only having wasted my time for the actual ad, but also the transition.
