I’ve also got the Linux Basics for Hackers book but it’s at home while I’m on vacation.
I’m just really happy rn yall :) this install took some work, SecureBoot kept getting in the way and I’m not the most savvy person so there was a lot of Googling and trial and error in the way of getting here.
I love how under most Linux threads there is war and anarchie and many know-it-all, but under this? A New Penguin? Lets Embrace him in the best Community there is.
Nice Work Man
CLI is love. CLI is life.
I went back and forth for about six years.
Then I began using Linux on a home NAS, then using the host GPU for virtualization, then proton… and when proton hit, that was basically.
Yep! Packing my shit! We’re going to penguin land!
ugh r u rly usin [distro i dont use] just go back to micro$haft luser
Congrats! Made the switch finally early this year myself, after thinking about it for nearly twenty years. Hasn’t been nearly as hard as I was worried it would be.
I will say that the “Linux Basics for Hackers” is a pretty disappointing book that really should just be called “Linux Basics”, and spends too much time pandering with things like “cool” scripts that do nothing useful or wrap a simple command in a way that doesn’t actually make it more useful or easier. It’s also full of inaccuracies and just isn’t very well written, and if you’ve gotten through much at all of How Linux Works, you’re not likely to get anything out of it.
