Linus has a skill for messing things up with Linux
It's a little crazy to me how the most popular tech youtuber struggles so much with Linux, meanwhile fucking PewDiePie, who's not known for being particularly bright, has been making videos about Linux and selfhosting and how fun it is to configure his system lol.
The hardest person to convert is a Windows "poweruser". They have an unfounded confidence in their ability to do things. They think because they know Windows well they should be immediate pros at other OSes as well.
no pewdiepie 1000% messed things up on linux. the difference is he didnt show it in his videos
If you mess up and then fix it/start over and get it right the second time around, did you mess up?
Well yes, but you also learned something.
Second time? That's master level pengwinning if you ask me.
cOnTeNt
It's on purpose.
Probably dropped it
Naw he's just the ElectroBOOM of computers. Intentionally does shit wrong to show people how not to do things.
He wishes he were electroboom
