But that’s a legitimate reason for it to exist. A lot of people have reservations towards Linux because they’re concerned about the gaming experience. Making it smooth and easy is a good thing. Having said that, I just installed Steam on Mint and everything ran just fine. I only play Steam games on that machine, though.
Have you tried Mint or something similar? You can absolutely run and install it without using the command line.
I’d give it a shot if i was on the lookout for something new, but I see absolutely no reason to switch from Mint.
Yes, that’s my point. If people could buy Linux PCs at Best Buy or Walmart, most of them would get on with it just fine.
People find Windows easier to use because they are used to the quirks. Of course you shouldn’t let a beginner try Arch, but there are plenty of beginner friendly distros. The complications often come from installing Linux in the first place but the average user will have just as much trouble installing Windows.
If she doesn’t like it, find a new wife!
If you have cutting edge hardware, this might be an issue. But most people don’t and for them Mint will work just fine. If you want cutting edge, don’t use Mint. But that’s not their focus at all. Mint is for people who just want their computer to work with minimal hassle.
And then PETA “liberated” the cat and euthanised it the next day.
You must! The Penguin demands it!
It’s outrageous! You must start a crusade to make them see the error of their ways and start using Arch!
Steam Link is a thing. It’s great to play PC games on your living room TV. A Steam controller would be perfect for that.
Found the scrum master.
What what? I thought agile means you don’t have to plan!
They will make you catch teh gay if you eat those!
Paperless-ngx might be worth a look. Probably overkill if you just want to store mails but great for general purpose document management.
Why do they have to personally attack me like that?
Those whippersnappers have it so easy these days! They don’t even know what an interrupt is any more!
What are you, some kind of socialist?
