Those words make sense on their own and I could probably diagram them as sentences, but put together in that way they don’t seem to parse into anything coherent. Edit: Wait, are you saying that you think there are distros that don’t have a terminal or terminal emulator?!? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ian@feddit.uk 1 point 3 weeks ago* I'm saying it's never part of my workflow on Linux. I'm sure a lot of people don't need it. Even if they could find it. You can't do the things I mostly do, with a command line. And if the install is broken, I wouldn't try to guess my way to fix it. A reinstall is likely to be quicker. permalink fedilink source parent
