minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink12•edit-24 months ago First you pay money to Canonical, and then you load the disc into the PC. Animal noises and bongo drums play for some reason and you’re presented with an orange game menu. You click on one of the squares stacked clumsily on the left and nothing happens. You click it again and it drags with your mouse up the hierarchy. Finally, it lets go and a big white square fills the screen, knocking you off your chair. A popup window spawns from an empty corner and informs you that there are 25 packages that can be updated. Daunted by the unending onslaught, you curl up into a ball and weep
