realcaseyrollins (realcaseyrollins@social.teci.world)'s status on Friday, 17-Jan-2025 12:36:12 JST realcaseyrollins Off the bat, one observation: #Windows11 is a PAIN to install. I had a completely unformatted drive and the installer couldn't install the OS on it until I went into the command line and "cleaned" the drive. Compare this to #ZorinOS, which installed without crying at all.
On top of this, the #Windows11 installation is taking twice as long as the #ZorinOS installation. For #ZorinOS I chose to run updates upon install, but #Windows11 forces me to run the updates. Nonetheless, installing #Windows11 alone took slightly longer than installing both #ZorinOS and its updates. I gave my younger sibling a bath, it was taking so long (I'm not even joking!). It's installing the updates now, but that's taking about as much time as installing #Windows11 did. 😮💨
I'm installing #Windows11 in large part because it's good for me to have some version of #Windows, but if I can magically make my #DRM removal tools and games run on #Linux, I'll be kissing #Windows goodbye almost completely.In conversation from social.teci.world permalink -
realcaseyrollins (realcaseyrollins@social.teci.world)'s status on Friday, 17-Jan-2025 12:36:12 JST realcaseyrollins The hard drive in my #Windows10 computer died today so I'm putting #Linux on it 👉🏾👈🏾
Actually not happy about this because I have some app settings I'll need to do over again but at least I use mostly #FOSS apps that are available on #Linux so I'll be able to reinstall everything I had before in my #Linux environment except my #DRM removal tools and some of my games
I also have a secondary drive I'll try to put #Windows11 on so if I REALLY need #Windows11 I'll be able to boot to that as wellIn conversation from social.teci.world permalink -
realcaseyrollins (realcaseyrollins@social.teci.world)'s status on Friday, 17-Jan-2025 12:36:11 JST realcaseyrollins Strange, after installing #Windows11 on the other hard drive, I can't boot to #ZorinOS on the main drive. Apparently not installing the version with the right graphics drivers causes issues later? So I'm reinstalling it, with the #NVIDIA drivers. This one is on me I think 😂

realcaseyrollins (realcaseyrollins@social.teci.world)'s status on Friday, 17-Jan-2025 12:36:10 JST realcaseyrollins Well, ironically, now that I've installed the #NVIDIA version of #ZorinOS, one of my monitors doesn't work 😂
Is this a common thing in #Ubuntu based #Linux? If so, I wonder why they offer this method as an option if it just causes more problems.In conversation from social.teci.world permalink -

sort -M input.txt
sort -k 3 -M input.txtMore complicated options are supported, like sorting using yyyy-mm-dd and any other format; see my blog https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-sort-date-data-using-sortcommand/ page for more info.
