I've also got the Linux Basics for Hackers book but it's at home while I'm on vacation.
I'm just really happy rn yall :) this install took some work, SecureBoot kept getting in the way and I'm not the most savvy person so there was a lot of Googling and trial and error in the way of getting here.
Congrats! Made the switch finally early this year myself, after thinking about it for nearly twenty years. Hasn't been nearly as hard as I was worried it would be.
I will say that the "Linux Basics for Hackers" is a pretty disappointing book that really should just be called "Linux Basics", and spends too much time pandering with things like "cool" scripts that do nothing useful or wrap a simple command in a way that doesn't actually make it more useful or easier. It's also full of inaccuracies and just isn't very well written, and if you've gotten through much at all of How Linux Works, you're not likely to get anything out of it.
lucky for you, my laptop in its entirity is unsupported by the linux kernel (msi gf63 thin 9sc)
entirity? how? doesn't it run at all?
only as live system, with limited capabilities. i only run linux in virtual machine for now. don't buy msi gamer laptops
I went back and forth for about six years.
Then I began using Linux on a home NAS, then using the host GPU for virtualization, then proton... and when proton hit, that was basically.
Yep! Packing my shit! We're going to penguin land!
CLI is love. CLI is life.
