  • I’ve been on Linux for about 15 years now … I’m no pro and I’ve never really advanced in anything with the terminal

    I tried doing stuff years ago but then I came at a crossroad … either spend my life learning the dark arts of the terminal and all the details of how every major system works … reinstall every time I have a new problem that I caused … or just leave everything alone and never tweak or adjust anything.

    For the past few years, I just install the latest stable version of anything I use and never bother touching or tweaking anything … never had a problem since.





  • Never trusted this setup to begin with because I didn’t trust Microsoft and I’m not all that capable or want to take time to sort this stuff out on a regular basis.

    So I just setup my ThinkPad laptop with two removable SSDs and I just swap one or the other whenever I need. The drive is easily switched, from power down, remove drive, insert other drive and restart only takes about two minutes.

    I’m not going to risk messing up my setup because two operating systems can’t work with one another.

    Besides I seldom switch, I use Windows if I really have to about three or four times a year.

    Chrome is the one I see all the freakin time on Linux … sometimes it’s once a week but it’s more like every two weeks they completely update the entire software, get rid of the old and install a new version. It wouldn’t be a big deal but if you’ve tweaked any changes with one version, they get wiped everytime which forces everyone to stick to the software and never change it ever at all.

    For the record, I use Firefox and only keep Chrome if I need the browser for any reason … like casting.

    Aspiring to becoming and staying a billionaire requires a certain amount of psychopathy because it takes a certain mentality to want to own so much wealth that you’ll never be able to enjoy all of it in a lifetime while at the same time denying or taking away the wealth of others who might need it.

    If I had a billion, I’d take a few million and live off the interest and give away the rest and not be bothered by anyone or anything ever again.
