i am once again begging windows users to understand that linux nerds give you instructions in the form of terminal commands because "paste this in" is a million times faster than trying to lead you through the gui one button at a time, not because the gui doesn't exist

"they should make a gui so it's easy for normal people" they did that thirty years ago motherfucker but you went looking for a nerd to give you advice and now you're mad that the advice you got is nerd advice. very sorry that you had to type chmod once and linux is bad now

i assume a common thread here is the sense of Knowing How To Use A Computer and then suddenly not knowing how to do anything and feeling frustrated and embarrassed and blaming the computer for not working the same way. not sure why this doesn't happen with macs though
