But this picture of an empty desktop was far too long in the making. it took me a week to succesfully install Arch. I could do the process start to finish, blindfolded, at this point.

Finally, after endless hours of repeating the same steps over and over again, trying to word google searches in just the right way to get just that one specific answer to that one absurd issue, re-reading guides and links over and over again trying to find the single missed Sentence that ties everything together and finally. Finally.

It may seem kinda stupid to consider that an accomplishment, but I feel quite genuinely proud of myself for actually succeeding at this instead of just throwing in the towel and giving up like I usually do when I try and take on new hobbies, and don't immediately succeed.

ETA: Image fix!

I have never rolled a joint this flawless. Quite proud of it... dunno if I even want to smoke it, it turned out so good.

Linux is interesting to me, but I've never dipped my toes into it because it seems really intimidating (and a lot of loud people act pretty snobbish about it towards non-Linux users, making it seem even more intimidating to get into; I'd rather not be bullied for my choices in software or my ignorance in others).

It seems so complicated to me, and there's so many types, and so much lingo that I'm not versed in, so that when I consider getting into it I just feel so overwhelmed I can't even think.

My understanding of Linux is bare bones to say the least. I understand it's highly customizable. I understand it's a lot of manual work, though, at least.. it sounds like it? From what I've seen people say, it seems like you need to remember a lot of codes and functions to do basic things unless you install interfaces for things? Again, I'm really ignorant about this stuff, so excuse my lack of proper terminolgy and such.

I also am under the impression that Linux isn't the greatest for most games? Or at least, that's what I heard a lot years ago, I don't know if it's still true (or if it was even true back then). If that's still a thing, is it because Windows is just what everyone defaults to when designing software? How viable is gaming on Linux?

And how does one even... go about setting up Linux? How do you choose what er... version? Type? Ah, distro? Again this... terminology is foreign to me, I'm not fully sure what I'm saying. Would I have to whipe a laptop of Windows to install Linux on it? How would I do that?

I am fascinated by the concept of Linux but like I said, there's just so much. I have ADHD and Autism and combined, the whole idea of jumping into this is so goddamn overwhelming to consider figuring it out all by myself.

Sorry if this is out of place, by the way.

For hypothetical example; Father/son duo are criminals, harming, killing, and stealing innocent civilians. Superhero fights them, resulting in the father dying. Son is now portrayed as a sympathetic villain because all he wants is to avenge his father... despite all the fathers of children they murdered whilst comitting crimes.

Side question; do you feel sympathy for the villains portrayed like this?
