Oh no, my desktop is fried!
I always treat the system as discardable and only backup the /home and /etc directories. Saving those, I can afford to wipe the system and re-settle on a new distro if I want to.
Of course if you throw Windows into the mix, all bets are off. Personally, I stay the hell away from that.
Mark it as an achievement on your learning path and move on. We all did something silly like that at some point.
Great that you have backups, get a fresh install and restore it.
Lessons learned: don’t work as root unless you absolutely positively have a good reason to do so.
Maybe it’s time you invested some time in finding alternatives that let you stay in control of said hardware. I know time is in short supply for all of us, so consider your priorities.
You will find unhelpful people in any group of people. Linux community is not special in that regard.
Now that you put it like that, I think what puts me off is all the melee and glory kills. Not my cup of tea. I need my social distancing from hellspawn. That, and the puny amounts of ammo. When I play a boomer shooter, I want to shoot. If I wanted melee, I’d play Mortal Kombat or something.
Manjaro seems to be a word that gets you down voted pretty quickly.
I’ve been using it for years with few issues, but then I’m not using AUR.
I also use EndeavorOS, Xubuntu, Debian in other machines. One thing that annoys me about EndeavorOS is that using a graphical package manager is not recommended but I’ve grown to like using those.
Different tastes.
The simplicity, artwork and playability appeals to me.
Finally installed Doom 2016. It’s nice, but the gameplay is not clicking with me.
I’ve sunk nearly 800 hours on it.
Good luck.
I never uninstall it, in fact I have several copies: Steam, GOG…
I guess so.
The first two (mainly the first) had that special something you get in indie games.
Torchlight and Torchlight 2 are great games and even have mods available.
I hear 3 and Infinite are not, though.
Let me count the ways:
I could go on, but my memory tends to erase the painful memories.
That is their prerogative. Mine is not buying overpriced games.
