Hook

Their other posts in the index, biggest breakout first.
Okay. Uh if there's a way to break installing an operating system, I've found it multiple times and if there isn't one you already know if I found it, uh and last time super easy, highly recommended trying. Maybe I should try. I mean one of the problems I have is I am not an MS person. I mean, I may do carnal and people think that that means that I'm technical. But when it comes to actually maintaining machines, I am a complete disaster, right? Uh and uh I change my own machines regularly. So changing the the system I run on my machine would be easy, right? I end up upgrading machines a couple of times a year usually. Uh but I end up having also to maintain my family's machines and uh that ends up being the one that I don't upgrade my family's machines very often and I don't want to run multiple multiple different distributions across different machines because I suck at ISS. So so it ends up being for me a distribution is something very sticky. Once I started with one thing I have a really hard time just doing something else because that means I have to switch over all my kids's machines, my wife's machine and and and that's just painful. So that's why. Okay, so this is a little difficult. Um I guess we're all at least for me. I'm kind of wondering very much like I think you are lately. How to get to the year of the Linux desktop if you will, right? And we'd all like it to be the year of the desktop if possible and I'm trying to figure out if anything if you have any inside just to possibly how to get closer or towards that if if anything. So I mean there's a lot of things that are getting closer to that and I I think I mean I people technical people don't tend to use Chrome books, but I think that Chrome books are the kind of thing that will make the year of the desktop more possible, right? Because once people get used to running their applications basically as a browser, uh that makes a lot of things much easier. That's said, let me go on my first rant of the evening, right? Uh one of the problems desktop has. I mean, ignoring all the purely market and getting free installs and making it just so that normal people and by normal people, I mean, obviously non-technical people will just buy a machine and it just works. One of the things that none of the the distributions have ever gone right is application packaging, right? Um, and now somebody will say, 'D package is way improved and much better than RPM', and that's not at all what I'm talking about. Um I'm talking about actual application writers that want to make a package of their application for Linux. And I've seen this first hand with the other project I've been involved with which is my dilog application, right?
