Are lithium-ion the bulldogs of the battery world?

Because changing your Linux kernel can never fuck up with say your drivers, or literally the hundreds of others things in your system, cause you know... it's THE FUCKING KERNEL, that connects to everything.

Unless you actually did troubleshooting, unless you actually have proof the issue is coming from the kernel, don't put a noob to mess with it.
He won't know what he did. He won't know how to change it back. He won't know if he needs to do it again after a reinstall. And he definitely won't know what the consequences are.

Distro devs spend a decent amount of time to choose and test the default kernel, to make sure it works out of the box for everyone. Why the fuck would you insist so fucking hard for a beginner to mess around with it when someone has an undiagnosed problem?

And have you considered for a split second, what if you're "solution" is wrong? What if it fixes nothing? What then? Are you gonna make him change pulseaudio to pipewire? What other "simple things" are you gonna have him change on a whim, without a fucking care in the world about what state that might leave his OS in?

I swear, my only conclusion is that you're a troll, that enjoys seeing beginners brick their own Linux installs out of ignorance.

>you make a hassle out of simple things
>simple things
That's rich, coming from the person who's FIRST recommendation is to change kernels.

This will be the LAST time I tell you this. NEVER TALK TO ME EVER AGAIN.

@white_male @Terry@bae.st @Terry@poa.st
Sure it can work, but you're just leaving them confused, and instead of them actually learning something about the OS, they just become dependent on people fixing their system over and over again, until they finally have enough, and go back to Windows, where they are more likely to understand how to fix it themselves.

That shouldn't be the goal. The goal is for Terry to be able to understand how Linux functions. I'm sure you could talk him into compiling the kernel manually. But he won't understand a thing of it, and when the OS breaks somewhere down the line, will YOU be there to recompile his kernel?

But you'll never get it. Cocky morons like you never do.

Do whatever, but don't come crying to me. Don't talk to me EVER again.

"You just have to put some commands in the terminal guy, it's just as easy as Windows, I swear".

Jesus. Fucking. Christ..... No. No no no.
Maybe you've completely lost contact with reality in your "muh open source" echo chamber. Take it from someone who still experiences contact with the dreaded Microsoft Windows... NO PART of Linux install or maintenance comes close to the Windows experience.

@white_male @Terry@bae.st @Terry@poa.st
You're not just a moron, you're delusional.

@white_male @Terry@bae.st @Terry@poa.st
>Very much Windows desktop like experience
That's the biggest lie I've ever heard anyone say about Linux, and I've been using it for well over a decade now. Wow. I wish I could literally nuke you.

@white_male @Terry@bae.st @Terry@poa.st
Please stop pretending Linux is perfect and flawless and never fails. It does all the time, especially in the hands of a beginner. Which is precisely why I don't push them into doing things they likely don't understand.

This is the second time this week I felt tempted to go back to Windows, not because of Linux giving me problems, but because I SWEAR TO GOD THE COMMUNITY IS SO BAD SOMETIMES.

Please go jump off a bridge.

@white_male @Terry@bae.st @Terry@poa.st
I have seen plenty of Ubuntu upgrades go wrong. Fuck Ubuntu.

And it's not about this upgrade going wrong now, it's about you changing his install on your whim, and leaving him in a position where he'll be even more confused about how Linux works. You can't have him change thing after thing in his system and expect him to be able to keep track of things or understand any of it. He probably doesn't even know what a kernel is, and you're making him change it on a literal whim? Cause you definitely have done no actual troubleshooting.

And morons like you seem to have no clue just how easy it is for a beginner to completely nuke their distro, simply on the account of them not knowing how everything connects and then trying to change something that looks and were told is small.

@white_male @Terry@bae.st @Terry@poa.st
I'll say it again, people like you are the reason Linux will NEVER be a mainstream desktop OS.

@white_male @Terry@bae.st @Terry@poa.st
The butthurt is that you're forcing a beginner to change things in his OS that he likely doesn't understand. And when something finally goes wrong, and borks his system, you'll just say "oops" and jump ship, with no one left to clean the mess. And you know what happens to the average beginner left in this spot? They go back to user friendly Windows. Congrats!

@white_male @Terry@bae.st @Terry@poa.st
You're despicable, and the reason Linux is incapable of becoming a Windows replacement.

I've been using Linux for years now. I love using Linux. I would love that more people used Linux.

You know what I don't do though? I DON'T TRY TO FORCE PEOPLE INTO USING LINUX, OR HOW TO USE LINUX!
I don't push beginners into doing stuff they certainly don't understand.

Stop fucking being like this.

@white_male @Terry@bae.st @Terry@poa.st
I have a 8 year old desktop that is doing just fine without a special kernel. I'd say that's old enough. HIS ISSUE IS NOT THE KERNEL.

@white_male @Terry@bae.st @Terry@poa.st
His issue is not the fucking kernel everyone else on his distro uses. Stop being a moron. You don't need a low latency kernel unless you do audio processing stuff, and it doesn't sound like that's what he's looking for.

@white_male @Terry
For a beginner, you might as well have did that.

@white_male @Terry
Let a fucking beginner learn how things work in his own pace. Don't push unnecessary bullshit on him. You'll just drive people away from Linux, you god damned idiot.

@white_male @Terry
Honestly I'm surprised you didn't tell him to install Arch or Gentoo.
