(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Only 1% or 2% of computer users are smart enough to use Linux.
Puppy is now more than your average penguin. Originally we were designed to augment and backup the big penguins . . .
Somehow through extreme friskiness we are on the dawn of being translated into Klingon and other languages.

One of the wonders of the Puppy breed of Linux is that it can be used effectively and joyously by someone like me, with an advanced case of CLI-phobia, too old to remember anything new, and too nervous to read instructions. I say to my 99% fellows, "Come on in, the Puppy's fine."

advanced case of CLI-phobia

Fear is the path to the Dark Side (aka Windows).
Fear leads to anger (see Windows},
anger leads to hate (see Windows);
hate leads to suffering (did I mention Windows too much already?)
. . . some of us have been down that path and we know where it leads . . .

. . . but enough of Yoda and the Matrix . . .

I think it was the rute guide that really got me interested in Cli

Haha that is why I totally fail to do anything using CLI.
I am not one of the top 1%. Rather at the bottom 20%

nooby, ....they are still struggling with the spec for your % category....not bottom 20%, IMHO, but something like 'intelligent but confused' seems near the mark...

Linux forums does not like us that are confused. I fully understand that.
I react to others that confuse me in similar ways Sorry!
Linux OS Forum for the Confused User. I should start such forum

Confused I can deal with....unnecessary worrying and general negativity get to me though....it is very draining.....

As a parent, you sometimes have to let crying babies cry themselves to sleep, rather than react every time, else the baby associates crying with success at getting attention, [plus you end up unable to look after them at all]....and there are better ways to do that, by using your intelligence more than the negativity

It's very rewarding for both people
