    Linux really is in a good place I’ve been on it for some months now. It feels like win 7, it doesn’t get in your way, it does what you want it to do when you want it to. And if you fuck something up its because you fucked it up… go fix it…

      “Fixing it” has been a lot easier to do lately as well. Most distros set up a rollback feature of some kind these days.

        I don’t remember what i did… but i completely fucked my system up… linux wouldnt start at all…

        I tried looking online for help and i basically needed a flash drive with linux to “fix” the issue…

        I didn’t have that, i lost it or whatever…

        I took a shot with asking chat gpt and for all its hate… it was somehow able to explain some weird boot loader thing I’ve never heard of and i punched in some commands into the command line, and everything was fixed…

        Im not sure the point of the story, but don’t go changing system level shit when your trying to fix your graphics card from crashing while playing no mans sky… i did fix the issue though changing the desktop from cinnamon to xde or something…

        But its like a memory bug or something that hopefully gets fixed for amd at some point
