Those who buy this deserve it.

Probably because they do it for bs reasons.

Nobody’s trying to stop them, we can make fun of them however.

Ohh it’s that thinkpad netbook. I hated that thing when I got it as my first thinkpad, it’s absurdly slow.

With .tar.gz software usually the steps are:

1. Extract the archive
2. Find a file with the .sh extention - that’s the shell script. It will most likely be named something like install.sh
3. Make it executable - by right clicking and enabling it in the properties or by opening a terminal in this folder and using a command:

chmod +x install.sh

4. Run the installer in the terminal:

./install.sh

It might ask you to run it as root and quit. In that case put a sudo before the command above and it will ask you for your password

sudo ./install.sh

And tbat’s it, installation should begin. Follow the instructions in your terminal.

The main advantage over Minecraft is unrestricted modability. Luanti is just the voxel engine, you can run hundreds of different “games” on top of. Aside from the obvious mining and crafting types of games (including VoxeLibre which is a direct clone of Minecraft) there are also games with completely different gameplay - platformers, arcade etc.

The mods and games are easily downloaded from within the game.

Also - free, open source, community run. Not owned by Microsoft. So that’s nice.

Is that an issue when using Borg for backups? Doesn’t it checksum everything at each operation?

Yes, have been from the start.

The only good lootbox game was Borderlands 2

Hopefully a better car.

Throwing cheese at cars is my new favorite form of antifascist protest!

You mean the Japanese one after the Americans shot themselves in the foot over and over?

Well then that’s a great approach and more power to you. Enjoy Linux!

Then Arch is kind of a terrible choice for you. I use it (btw), but I’ve been using linux since 2008.

The learning curve and constant need to troubleshoot things isn’t great for beginners.

EDIT: can someone explain why I’m getting downvoted? Isn’t this common knowledge that Mint and other begginner-friendly distros that don’t have complicated package managers and require less configuration and maintenance are better for someone who’s just starting with Linux?

I myself began with Ubuntu back in '08 but nowadays use both Arch and Mint.

Linus Tech Tips really is scum. Yet more proof of that.

All I need to know is that when I shake my cursor in KDE it keeps growing bigger.
