How does it feel knowing that the year of the Linux desktop will never happen and Google is far more likely to obsolete the GPL, the linux kernel and the GNU coreutils with it's own homegrown kernel and operating system within your lifetime?

If you don't believe me, recall the last time you installed GNU/Linux from scratch and count the number of times you had to google how to do something because you encountered an issue you weren't already familiar with
If it's more than ZERO, you've already alienated 99% of computer users due to how user hostile the operating system is.
I'll give an example with all the issues i got the last time I installed debian stretch, every meme arrow indicates a point where a clueness user would be forced to look up their problems on stackoverflow or elsewhere.

i'm not even done and the user is already expected to copy paste scripts from stackoverflow and how to enable scripts with chmod 744 and also that files need an executable bit to function as scripts
a clueless user would have given up at the first few steps, there will never be a year of the linux desktop and YOU know it.

idk werks on my machine

>a clueless user
Sounds like you alright. Install Mint, Memejaro or OpenPEEPEE and be done with it.

I stopped reading your thread after the first sentence.

Are you implying Windows doesn't have any problems after installation? 99% of users don't know how to install Windows let alone how to find the necessary drivers for their hardware. At least on Linux most of the drivers are built-in(and if they aren't built-in they are probably just shitty drivers that will cause issues no matter what).

Cope

Bruh.

white men don't fear the terminal

Well I've been installing Linux and Windows on my machines since 2002. There is roughly a 10:1 ratio about the problems encountered in Linux vs Windows installations. I simply don't bother with Linux anymore, it is just a chore. If I had the need for a unixy box I would simply buy a Mac.

>white men don't fear the terminal

White men impregnate white women, they do not waste time on ubuntuforums

nearly nothing in this list is valid
and of those that are, installing Ubuntu instead fixes them

Windows or Mac do not provide freedom for the user.
A man who takes pride in his own slavery is called an "uncle tom" or "house negro." Are you a house negro?

weak bait, try harder

Not bait. Enjoy your EULAs and botnets

You use Linux when you are a software developer who needs tooling and prefers working with the command-line; you do not use Linux because you read some memes on Jow Forums. Window's will never be my host operating system because I am extremely comfortable with the Linux environment and prefer it for my profession.

jesus who hurt your feelings?

why in fuck should give a shit about rando normies using linux? it's perfect for me as it is right now. in fact i hope linux retains exactly its current level of popularity and importance for the rest of time.

an operating system created at google is incapable of being anything but intentionally crippled cloud-based shit to preinstall on botnet phones and walmart laptops

Get over yourself, girl.

What you're describing is a common phenomenon that isn't limited to freedom protecting operating systems. Everything that the average person will touch must be simplified as much as possible. Getting a man to think is dangerous, he might start criticizing the establishment as well as those who made and provide the [thing]. Thus the aforementioned are forced to make it "just werk".
>How does it feel
Not that bad. If it's not popular it is much less likely to encounter it's worsening that I mentioned in the last paragraph.

Nobody hurt my feelings user. I'm just telling it like it is.

>How does it feel knowing that the year of the Linux desktop will never happen
True, it will never happen.

>obsolete the GPL, the linux kernel and the GNU coreutils with it's own homegrown kernel and operating system within your lifetime?
Kek, their 'homegrown OS' Fuchsia is moving at a snails pace, not even Google believes in it (since then they would atleast assign some full time developers for it). Even a purely volunteer project like Redox is developing faster.

Linux has more incoming code in a day than these projects have in a year. Google+ has a better chance of toppling Facebook than Fuchsia has of toppling Linux.

The year of the Linux desktop was 2014. That was the year I had a harder time installing Windows than Linux.

>GNU/Linux
Linux

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

The year of the Linux desktop already passed and no one even noticed.

>Linux
Yes, it's a kernel commonly used with GNU and other things. What about it?

I encounter way more problems with the retarded OS you're shilling. I'm forced to work with windows and it really isn't pretty. At home I only use Linux. It has been two years since I encountered a Crash on Linux and I never needed to fix something.

>How does it feel knowing that the year of the Linux desktop will never happen
Thank fuck, I can't feel contrian if everyone uses linux

Proper Pajeet. OP is obviously white and gives up too easily. This is why Pajeets are CEOs.

TL;DR lol

So like every single desktop OS I used, which includes both Windows and MacOS
>sudo isn't installed
>you are not in the list of sudoers
What distro are you talking? Ubuntu desktop and its spins have sudo installed, same with Manjaro.
>>apt-get didn't work, the sources.list file was empty
Again, if you install a head-less distro like ubuntu-server or mini, you should be expecting these.
>>also wifi doesn't work
So, windows?
>>there's no wlan drivers, how do I know which one to install
What? They come pre-installed.
>laptop has no ethernet port, forced to dig out usb to ethernet adapter and huddle over my router for this part
>why isn't firmware-realtek installing in apt-get?
I don't use ubuntu but Manjaro works straight out of the box. On the other hand, I have to download a wifi driver from another computer and install it in order to use my wifi dongle in windows 10 education (latest stable build)
>Rest of the gibberish
I don't respond to strawman and made-up stories.

Realtek wireless works just fine, Manjaro OOTB. Sounds like you have hardware issues.

Blissful

>Google is far more likely to obsolete the GPL the linux kernel and the GNU coreutils with it's own homegrown kernel and operating system
google is not going to be around it it's current form after another 10 years

>installed GNU/Linux from scratch and count the number of times you had to google how to do something because you encountered an issue you weren't already familiar with
What you are describing is the problem of a distribution maintainer, not an end user. If you don't have the expertise, you're the dumb one, not the Linux distro's source code.

yeah linux users are definitely gonna hop on over to some sort of monstrous google OS, that sounds like something that will happen

Well, that is indeed a problem, I advise to change your laptop first.

That makes me feel happy.

>recall the last time you installed GNU/Linux from scratch
Uh, never. Who the fuck seriously does that?

>> normies will never dumb and bloat Linux down
Ubuntu.

GTFO, wincuck brainlet.

systemd
pulseaudio
cups
gnome

the list goes on

> wanting more of that
We can still stop it

>>sudo isn't installed
I made a bash function like this: sudo(){su -c "$@";}
>>you are not in the list of sudoers
why would I even need this.
>>apt-get didn't work, the sources.list file was empty
I don't install debian without internet connection. I did this once and the sources.list was empty and apt wasn't configured and I was fucked beyond believe.
>>also wifi doesn't work
As long as apt works I can deal with it
>>there's no wlan drivers, how do I know which one to install
Install all
>>how do i find the model number for my wlan card
Just install all drivers, I dont give a fuck
>>laptop has no ethernet port, forced to dig out usb to ethernet adapter and huddle over my router for this part
If this doesn't work, I give up.
>>why isn't firmware-realtek installing in apt-get?
This is easy, enable everything in sources.list by writing contrib non-free at the end of every damn line. (I really just do this, even knowing not every line needs it. who gives a shit)
>>how do I add non-free repos to apt-get?
A beginner can google this though.
>>i installed firmware-realtek, why doesn't my wifi work?
I don't know.
>>the package is too old, the driver i need is in debian buster which has updated drivers
Don't go testing, just accept it or use ubuntu.
>>how do install packages from stable-backports?
Never did this.
>>wanna install google-chrome, it's not available in debian repos
Just download it, unzip and start it with the terminal. maybe use a bash alias...
>>forced to download deb from google directly
Yes-
>>how do i .deb packages without apt-get
dpkg -i "filename"
>>install failed, dependencies not met
just try apt again with --fix-missing. If that doesn't work forget it.
>>how do i fix dependencies in apt
Don't know besides using this OS for 7 years.
>>close laptop, wifi is gone
Never had this problem.
>>google for fix, user suggests modprobe disabling and reenabling wifi driver on suspend/resume with a systemd script
Just try it. lol.

Are you retarded? I don't WANT there to be a year of the Linux desktop. Security through obscurity.

I don't give a flying fuck that the hordes of normies wont use linux.

I'm terribly sorry for interjecting another moment, but what I just told you is GNU/Linux is, in fact, just Linux, or as I've just now taken to calling it, Just Linux. Linux apparently does happen to be a whole operating system unto itself and comprises a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Most computer users who run the entire Linux operating system every day already realize it. Through a peculiar turn of events, I was misled into calling the system "GNU/Linux", and until now, I was unaware that it is basically the Linux system, developed by the Linux project.

There really isn't a GNU/Linux, and I really wasn't using it; it is an extraneous misrepresentation of the system that's being used. Linux is the operating system: the entire system made useful by its included corelibs, shell utilities, and other vital system components. The kernel is already an integral part of the Linux operating system, never confined useless by itself; it functions coherently within the context of the complete Linux operating system. Linux is never used in combination with GNU accessories: the whole system is basically Linux without any GNU added, or Just Linux. All the so-called "GNU/Linux" distributions are really distributions of Linux.

what's wrong with having something only certain groups of people will like?
why does everything need to be normalised?

Operating system dont belong on Jow Forums, just like gayming talk

Based. Computers don't either, that's either gaymer or office drone shit. Just delete Jow Forums, nothing belongs here anyway.

ITT linux fags seething

My Linux desktop works fine. Less normies is a good thing.

Xubuntu GNU/Linux does not have this problem.

At least it doesn’t reboot while I’m working to force an update which deletes my files.

Literally none of us care if normalfags use Linux or not, but shills like you are so keen on preventing it. You’re not very smart.

>OP makes long post filled with lies and shill talking points
>Op gets BTFO in own thread
