Follow-up video to https://lemmy.world/post/32690521


Spoiler alert: the main reason he says the experience “hasn’t been great” is because shortly before posting the video his Linux install mysteriously broke and he had no idea why. Therefore, he recommended dual-booting Windows just in case.

Cue sea of comments explaining that the reason for the error he was getting was that Windows screwed up his bootloader (i.e. the problem was caused by dual-booting to begin with, LOL).

      Hey, at least he’s up-front about it and didn’t type in yes, do as I say! like Other Linus did.

        Complaining about Linus doing things like an inexperienced user when that is the whole point of the test is pretty stupid, honestly.

        I would expect someone who knows just enough to follow troubleshooting using the command line but not knowing how powerful it can be would do the exact same thing in his position.
