butr

eriklavr

illegitimate_egg

Bearing in mind that the whole command line is frozen

illegitimate_egg

For everything

eriklavr

true

eriklavr

Linux is 70 % Command line

illegitimate_egg

Linux is 98% Command line

eriklavr

depends on the os

illegitimate_egg

Not really

illegitimate_egg

A) Linux is a kernel B) The OS is basically just a package manager + base packages and configuration

eriklavr

what about RetroPie Recalbox and that

eriklavr

oh wait

eriklavr

i forgot they are Community made

illegitimate_egg

RetroPie is an emulator

illegitimate_egg

so it still uses the command line

eriklavr

true

eriklavr

but

eriklavr

you dont really use it

illegitimate_egg

But the system does internally

eriklavr

yeah

eriklavr

Bruh it fixed itself

illegitimate_egg

tf

eriklavr

It somehow didn't detect Any GPU CPU RAM etc

eriklavr

idk how

eriklavr
