So I got this weird bug – I updated my Pop_OS install and now Linux doesn’t boot anymore. I should probably boot from USB and fix this. I could figure it out on my own, but maybe it will be good knowledge for people searching on engines so any advice is welcome. Windows still boots properly. Let’s give people some alternatives to reddit :)
Thank you for the reply. However, as the length of your writing has increased, you also started to make less sense. If this is due to your drunk posting, then I understand (to a degree). But this makes it very hard for me to engage with ya. Therefore, I’ll try to address your points to the best of my ability. But, note that I’m having a hard time ‘keeping up’ with ya.
So, you’re indulging in some mental gymnastics. I’ll outline it very clearly to ya:
The thing is, you are NOT addressing my point. I can simply return it back (without adding much) by reiterating that OP (or whichever Linux-user) just happens to be someone that has a use case for a desktop PC and has the freedom to choose their distro.
That’s fine. I never argued the contrary, anyways. No idea why you felt the need to bring this up.
Can’t help ya out with that. I believe I was pretty clear. Consider to use an LLM to explain it to ya. Or return back to it in the morning.
You are. As you’ve acknowledged yourself earlier, your first comment wasn’t helpful in the slightest. Instead you chose to ‘hate’ on OP for installing Linux.
It’s fine if you feel that way. You’re the first to bring up Linux proselytizing, though. Neither my intention (nor OPs) was anything like that. You chose to share misinformation on the internet and I called you out on it. Nothing more than that.
Ohhhh Shit you replied to my to long post with an even longer post and it’s 6am and I just cracked open another beer so let’s go.
I’m on my phone so idk how to do the quotes

Yes so what that doesn’t address my point that desktop pc computing for the majority of computers users is on the decline from my completely shitty anecdotal points most normal non tech people I know literally use their phones or tvs as computers.

Wow now who’s being dismissive?
I already apologised for being off topic and random posting on a thread my original comment was already deleted and I’m fine with it. I didn’t share any misinformation I simply shared an opinion that desktop computing is going the way of the dodo other than for specific uses. I’ll fully admit that all the information I have comes from just hanging out with normal people and doing market analyses on all this would be pretty interesting but ya I was drunk posting my original comment was deleted and I apologised to op. As for the proselytising part you’re right that did just come from me and the fact that I just don’t see desktop pcs as the future of personal computing that shit is done on smart phones now.
For the second time I’ll apologise to op for derailing his question. Are we done debating now?
Or I’ll put it another way, you see that fucking weird hill? I’m dying on it.
Np, fam. FWIW, try on a new line (without quotes) the following:
“>” <text you wish to quote>
This should work.
I hope you’ll notice this time how you’re being dismissive :P .
So you attempt to draw attention to an observation. The observation being that: 30 (or so) years ago, interaction with a ‘computer’ happened mostly in the form of a desktop PC. This was also mostly reserved to those that were techie enough. Contrast that to current day; in which most of us interact with a ‘computer’ (even my (mostly) illiterate grandma), but the desktop PC has been replaced as a main avenue. Instead, their phones have become their go-to ‘computers’.
This is an observation; therefore I can’t disagree with the observation. But what’s the point you want to make using this observation?
If I do an honest attempt to explain why 1 + 1 = 2 and you don’t get/see/understand it, then I’m just being sensible by moving on; especially, as you’re drunk. I’m just betting that you can make sense of it when you’re sober. If you can’t in the morning, then please point out the dissonance and I’ll try a second honest attempt.
Your very first comment contained misinformation. You probs forgot about it.
Regarding the part of the desktop PC going extinct except for specific use cases, -again- I never implied the contrary. You’re now at the point that I started. If you never left your starting point, then consider this the result of miscommunication.
I’d argue you were to blame, but I digress.Hill me dying on it
lol I didn’t read what you wrote there is nothing left to debate I conceded to your point.
Consider going back to it when you’re sober ;) .
Nah I’m good
I’m fine if you will just return to the part found below:

I told you I won’t
Obviously I can’t force you. You do you. Consider not posting/commenting when you’re drunk ;) .
