Yeah, but that just goes to show how little he knows-- he can't even install it right.

And when he blamed Pop!_OS for tanking his Linux Daily Driver challenge, biggest cop out ever. I had updated my Pop workstation when it happened. The issue was resolved the next day. He could have waited 24 hours and then continued his challenge unimpeded.

Actually a poser.

He's just used to the warnings in Windows... now he knows Linux is NEVER EVER kidding when it says "you're on your own on this buddy ๐Ÿ™Œ" ๐Ÿคฃ.

Mac: "we don't do that here"

Windows: "preeeeettttty sure you don't want to do that one bud"

Linux: "here is your gun. Aim, steady, shoot, that simple .... why are you aiming it at your foot? Ya know what, IDC glhf"

Exactly! ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿคฃ

The weapons are as good as they come, but do be careful where you aim.

Also couldn't he have just downloaded steam from its website?

I admit to not really knowing anything much about the guy. I found out about him through reddit when people mentioned Linus in a context that just didn't make sense (because as we all know, there's really only one Linus). I never watched any of his stuff either. I'm more into text than video.

He's no different from anyone you can go talk to who works in computer repair / IT.

That's how i first know who he is. I just still think of him just like a regular guy from my area but that got super famous online

But i was a customer at NCIX where he formally worked so I've met him before he was famous and in a very different context than you so no surprise.

But im sure he is a very different person almost 20 years later like anyone would be.

(Just sharing with you not arguing or anything!)
