    Windows 10 has had a bug for about 3 years now. Where if you choose “install update and shutdown” and instead it reboots.

    Is there a “How to Linux” somewhere? I’d really like to get beyond using my CachyOS system as gui user, hell even some of the gui stuff is so alien. Felt like a lesser god when I found the repo… But terminal commands are just beyond me

      Check out “Linux survival” if you’re old school, LabEx if you like experiential learning more, and less explanation. Both offer exercises, both are free, but Labex has a few restrictions for free accounts, and offers a paid tier at like 9 bucks a month. And ofc you don’t have to use the terminal irl, it’s just easier after getting used to it. Most things have a GUI program equivalent, you just have to seek it out. Most of the time.

      Edit: And also, Linux Mint and a few others are often recommended to new users for being both similarish to windows and approachable with GUI.

    Big fan of hibernate (systemctl hibernate on systemd systems, and you need a swap file that’s at least as big as your RAM). Sure I wait some time until it’s shut down and booting takes longer, too, but not having to reopen all those terminal and editor windows I’m accumulating while working is worth it.

    This might sound crazy, but you don’t have to shutdown your computer every time you’re done using it. You can just lock the screen and walk away.
