What was your first experience using Linux? How old were you? Stick around or did you go back to windows before eventually circling back to Linux?
so linus made his first linux post when i was in highschool. (freshman). i didnt know of it but thats what wikipedia says. windows 95 came out when i was in college and by my junior year i knew about linux. in our networking class most everything was unix, one sun machine and the instructor got linux on one or two. students would rush to get the linux machines. it was seen as a better unix. at that point it wasnt seen as a desktop alternative just a better server experience. right before windows xp came out, i built a new computer for xp and used a disc from a magazine with redhat. installed it on their ma hi e and it didnt work because the hardware was to new. i soon got XP and learned about boot loaders.had to call microsoft since xp wouldnt install. tbe guy just recently i stalled linux on a few machines and helped me out.
didnt try linux again till broadband and the web was more of a thing.
Why is it so much more amusing to watch someone play a video game than it is to play the game itself?
For those who grew up without DLCs and microtransactions and games went unchanged after launch. How has the adjustment been to current day monetization and game updates?
you are conflating the web and the internet. they arent the same thing. you are still using the internet. the world wide web is an application the runs ON the internet.
