Can’t wait to graduate so I don’t have to run Respondus and keep dealing with this crap

    It’s both fun and frustrating learning how to operate it.

    This should be emblazoned somewhere in the initial Linux setup. I’m not in tech by trade, just a hobbyist nerd, and playing with Linux is like if a soulslike game were an OS. I had a terrible time figuring out how to get both monitors to work but eventually did and that felt like a huge win when it finally happened. Had an equally bad time trying to figure out how to install some game software but finally got that sorted and it felt like another big victory. But I still dual boot for now because some days I’m just not ready for the heartburn of dealing with my own ignorance in Linux

    • For me, Linux recreates the exhilaration of 1990s MsDOS: will this setting, that I really don’t understand, make my game work or just render my whole system unusable?

      I really want to play this awesome new game called Syndicate…

      What’s the worst that can happen? Reformat for a 4th time this week?

      y/n?

        I agree but with timeshift im able to be back up and running in 5 mins tops so I take more risks.
