@26:07 he says as a business he’s considering Linux on his computers because of Windows privacy violations. It’s great to hear someone with such a wide audience talking about using Linux.

Hopefully the next Linux challenge goes well for them . From what I remember Linus somehow broke his fresh Linux install by just install steam lol . Can’t wait to see Elijah switch to Linux
I dont remember the specific details, but it was a bug in that install version that…
MintPop_OS! (Thanks Joo)? I think it was? was slow to fix until the video came out or something?Anyway, long story short, He did ignore a warning, but what happened shouldnt have happened regardless, and it was totally something a novice could do, especially since, as a novice myself, most internet searchable help for linux issues boils down to “run this command, it’ll fix it” with no real broader explanation.
That doesnt mean he isnt an ignorant cunt in a thousand other ways though.
Long story short, there was a bug with apt that Pop!_OS didn’t patch before the release. They did so after the latest version at the time was released. Had he updated his system before trying to install Steam, it’d never happened, that’s the worst part.
Should have updated the install materials or just automatically force an update upon install. Competency should never be expected from the end user.
The funny part, to me, is that the command he ran was so dangerous that Pop_OS required you to type out the entire phrase
“Yes, do as I say!”
With correct punctuation, or it won’t continue
If it was just an “Okay” box or a “Y” to continue, I don’t think he’d have gotten as much flak for that one
