Okay but I’ve been using Linux for several years and I’ve never had to use the command line. I have used it a couple times, but it was by choice, not necessity.

Try and tell them that your average use cannot, or will not, use the command line , and you’ll both get called morons.

You do not have to use the command line to use most Linux distros. I think it’s a good idea to learn, but it’s no longer a necessity.

Well you both would be making assumptions about people wouldnt you?

Tell you what, I’ll prove you right. I think willful ignorance should be a felony. So those who decide they can’t learn how to use a computer by typing, deserve all of the corporate ass rape the United States private sector has to offer.

“ew, I can’t debase myself to the extent of executing a program by typing its name.” Okay, Here’s your copy of Windows 11. You deserve this.

Haha, Don’t offer people windows 11 , even in jest. It’s clearly the opposite of “being excellent” to them ( rule 3).
Gotta love mods.

Windows 11 is nowhere near as terrible as people here make it out to be.

Who is this mythical average user I keep hearing about?
I’ve never had a problem forcing people at work - even those with very limited IT knowledge - to run things from cli in windows.
For years in one place I worked the IT support first line solution was to tell all users to force a gp update from the windows cli. They’d point to a nice little how to guide with screenshots and everything. I don’t know if any of the thousands of people working there were the all important average user either though, probably not.
