I see a flare. It’s on the base. 😃

Sounds like a challenge to me
Because Fedora is open source only to the point of it being pathological. If there isn’t am open source driver most time you’re just boned. Someone new is going to have a tough time with it, and the community is on average a very “lol rtfm” bunch. Not as bad as Arch, but that’s not saying much.
Meanwhile, despite the problems around Ubuntu, Debian communities are much more understanding and helpful. Mint even with old packages is going to be an easier time for a newbie. Certainly a newbie unfamiliar with the way entirely too much of the FOSS community is.
Shell scripts were a mistake.
I understand 1000% but I’m not sure I agree. With the peevishness of C and latent autism of assembly, something compiled or otherwise binary isn’t always simple and straightforward. Sometimes, you have a task that only needs to be done three times, and just replaying the commands is sufficient.
sh, ash, and bash are all kinda dumb. Absolutely. But there are other shells that are significantly better. csh and zsh are both great. ksh has some history on it but is good too. But “shell scripts” don’t have to be in your shell language. The hashbang line will let you make a command file and so long as you can describe the command line you can get most shells to run it. Be that language line noise perl or python or even go.
Objective c, mostly. 😐
But also the fact that other operating systems run better on their hardware. Linux on apple silicon outperforms macos on that same hardware. A tiny team is porting software to your platform almost completely in the dark.
Free for now. If they wanted to let you keep using it for free they would have said so in the notices.
If you keep using it they’ll keep thinking you’re a possible income source.
It’s fine. I moved to gitlab years ago for 2fa, so while this doesn’t affect me I would be entirely ok with normal 2fa.
It is normal, right? Not a weird Microsoft 2fa requiring their app?
Lol. I don’t judge what they’re doing with their asshole, I’m just interested in how far it’s… traveled.
So, how many miles on it?
There are less expensive ways to do that…
Arch is absolutely divine with its documentation. There is a bit of a “you must be this tall to ride” with them though. Like the tiny

link. That’s not really well explained, and is even more opaque if you follow the link.
