Windows constantly says "this could harm your computer." Just about any time you install software it does.
Remember when Linus Sebastian blew up Pop!_OS? As a Windows user, "This is likely to break your computer, do not do this unless you absolutely know what you're doing. To proceed, type "Yes, do as I say."" is something to walk right past.
To be fair, you can nuke your entire OS with a single command on Windows too.
Don't even need a command. I've seen people brick their windows install messing around with registry keys. Most of my coworkers and friends think I'm some sort of wizard because I follow the instructions to the letter if I have any reason to run regedit.
This is what got me started on linux lol
Yes?
Windows error messages are usually something to pay attention to if they generate a popup. But you can ignore most errors and warnings in the event viewer.
Linux is the same. If you get a popup, look into that, but if you see warnings or errors in a logfile then they can most likely be ignored if the app is working
Bailing out. You are on your own. Good luck!
Well fuck...
WARNING: /boot appears to be a separate partition but is not mounted. You probably just broke your system. Congratulations.
Is that a real error message in Linux?
Yes
This principle applies to the GNU C compiler also. Any other compiler is going to complain at you for not adhering to their stupid style guide, or for not using their proprietary "mEmOrY sAfE" libraries. But if GCC is giving you warnings, you darn well better fix something.
Yes, do as I say! 🗿
uninstalls essential package
Why is my system broken? :O
LTT moment
the average brain on Windows...
"wdym a different OS doesn't behave exactly like Winsows? That just means it's bad!"
"It's Linux' fault that my proprietary software/configurator for overpriced hardware gimmicks isn't working and definitely not just the vendor not giving enough of a shit to provide support (or at least help with community drivers) on other platforms as well!!1!"
Windows warning is like the check engine light in your car, ignore till it starts being a problem lmao
For the record, if your check engine light is ever blinking, you need to immediately shut off your engine.
Shit is going very very wrong in your engine at that point, to the extent that it might cause an energetic catastrophic failure.
So you're telling me I should just turn up the volume instead of fixing my install ?
My favorite error message of all times:
You don't exist, go away!
One you actually care about while the other... blows wind.
Heck, I have errors in windows log that are just "sure, let's move on".
My broken pipe on update error doesn’t come up often enough to properly deal with and every possible cause I have found hasn’t applied
