I find this comic weird. If the woman is his true love, then he would love her more than anything. Either the well failed at the wish or it can only make a wish that can come true at a single moment but not forever(like ending world hunger would only be solved for the moment but not in the future). Either way, I think the last panel should have the guy falling head over heels in love with her as that was the wish he had made.

Automate it or create a pre-made install image, or simply use an already premade install image online as you are essentially having the same final install as everyone else following the guide. Following a guide without understanding the reasons behind each step is a counterintuitive way to learn. The goal is to install a GNU/Linux os on a computer. Gather the required information of what is needed for the installation. This can include the base components, the desired software and/or hardware to be used, and any extraneous needs that may come up from day to day usage. List out all the reasons for each component(software/hardware) and then decide how you wish for each to interact with each other or how they will be used. Layout a personal security policy and the necessary compromises to achieve a balance on usability and minimal risk to your data and system.

While this seems daunting, most of this is skip able as premade os images already are catered to common users. It is, however, the proper way to learn. Instead of just slamming together an OS install from a guide without realizing what you did or why it is needed, building a deeper understanding of the system and knowing the reasons for each step allows you to gain great insight and improvement on professional marketable computer skills.(be careful of accidentally over qualifying you in the interview, sometimes less is more)

There is plenty of documentation, and the arch wiki is just one of them to help you. Installing the Arch OS is the easiest part. It is the simplest goal, and it is the fun part of the process. The other parts are usually boring or need to be iterated over that can feel like a grind/large sink of tine and energy.

I hope my options don't dissuade you from practicing being in a terminal environment vs. the comfort of a GUI. This is an important skill for many users of Linux. There are many time-consuming stuff in this world, and I chose to plan installations and reading documentation for personal development. I may not be rich, but I am enjoying what I am doing.

I dont understand the analogy because I didn't get any. For me, it was like riding a bike or driving a car, I got a hang of it, but didn't know where to go and went wherever the internet/maps said was popular. Or when I first went to a buffet, didn't know what I wanted but started taking everything available in small portions and taking what others(friends and strangers) took.

I hate this because I accidentally tap the arrow even when I am not pressing on it. For example, when I want to select a different route, I try to tap the gray alternate route because it is efficient for EV energy(mostly not highway), and the menu pops up for selecting vehicles. I don't think that is a good place for it to be. It is distracting and could be in the settings. Most don't even know it is there until it is accidentally pressed and cause the driver to become distracted.

I got a warning for making a report on an automod comment and basically said the moderators are being oppressive and unjustly closing down comments. Five days later, I haven't touched reddit at all because I switched to lemmy and got a notification that I was banned from reddit because of the same report that I had received a warning on. I guess warnings on reddit are meaningless because you will still get banned or suspended even though it is the first "offense," which isn't hard to do when you tell mods they are jerks. I immediately used shreddit on my account and promptly deleted it with feedback that reddit banned me for a first offense that was a warning at first. Literal cancer of a site and glad to be rid of it. My life is better, and lemmy helps with communicating with the small communities I like.

My shoes are smooth enough to make it impossible to get a grip on them. Not to mention trying to balance while pulling it. Some bathrooms have an arm pull, dobt know how hygienic it is.

I stopped listening to music, radio or nothing. I'm tired of being constantly stimulated, I desire peace and quiet

I feel like Texas intentionally did that so that everything seems large af. If the exit road is long af then it must make you feel like the place is large when in reality it is just inefficient spaghetti

Here is an oddball solution, the lightest way to have GNU/Linux and be able to use GUI applications like Firefox is to simply start a bare bones os install X-Server and something like dmenu, That's it. Suckless.org, there is a lightweight dwm, a desktop window manager that you can use to tile windows and move them around and more. dmenu will be used to just launch the application. dwm is what manages the windows. Anything past that is based on what you need. It can be a fun challenge to make the most lightweight Firefox browser launcher.

For now, stick with what others have suggested. bare bones installations are usually meant for helping you single out a task and usually offer poor multitasking features until you put a lot of effort into installing and configuring more packages to a satisfying ease of use level.

You did well. Work on fluffing up. marketing skills even for things that may seem strange to talk about. Be more dramatic, but don't lie. Don't personalize. Instead, specialize yourself and stick with it. Don't limit yourself to one job title or career path, and explore. Interview and ask questions. Learn to be curious, but don't try to be an everything guy. Ask for help or try to offer help. See if you can start trading things or services, no matter how small, but get it in writing once it becomes large, expensive, or risky. Good luck
