This. And since we are already in the land of geeks, I’ll find a way to write one if none acceptable exists

Ah, true. I forgot this for a moment

Tell that to apple fans

I never make it to step 1

Oh, I have one solution in mind. Two, actually:

• leave California
• ask some questions ™ to authors of the bill. Like who is going to benefit from this, who was paid how much for what etc.

And it will. Why do you think they explained to me how car works long before I ever sat in a driver’s seat?

Lol. Imagine being so inept that you can’t imagine anyone preferring GUI over CLI

Downvotes you already have, so I will restrict myself to explaining:

• CLI is the only way I’ve ever installed anything in a Linux OS. Has served me well for a decade or more
• doing stuff without knowing what you are doing is going to land you in a mess, no matter how hard GUI tool devs are trying to prevent that

Like all things, it will pass. Still the possibility to go that far is a blessing

I am he. But I won’t

Nailed it

As long as you don’t scream the moment you see CLI, we’re good :)

Why stop stupid but not users?

Allow me to illustrate (c, Johny Silverhand):

• user fucks up
• starts complaining
• just plain tell them they got exactly what they told the software to do. End of story. Wants to quit - good luck

Oh my © 😀

But sir, I am not fucking a donkey, I am typing text with keyboard!

edit: meant to be a language pun, nothing more

Yay! :) Thank you ❤️

Heh. I wish my work were closer to hardware level, so that playing with compilation actually made some sense. If there is a kind soul here, please do tell me: does Gentoo look like it will still be around in some 10-15 years? I would hate to be too late to hop on the bus

Let this sink in, mr. clown

Oh. Sorry, I got too serious :)

No, Windows as in “this setting is hidden under this menu, that submenu, here click to open another sub-window…”. This will happen any time a dev tries to arrange settings in logical way (instead of flat list of toggle and input boxes), because “logically belong together” and “actually often used together or one after another” are not the same, and also dev logic, internal system logic and user logic are also three different things. Result - mad maze

Which is why many tinkerers like CLI - at least one can run man something or something --help in most cases
