Been running a windows 7 machine for a year now without any patching...just antivirus & common sense.
Gotta start working on the Linux learning curve.

Gotta start working on the Linux learning curve.

1. Install it
2. Use it

You can use commands if you want but there's not much need for it anymore if simply using your pc as a pc, browsing, email, word processing, mild graphics. My most common command and something that only works via the terminal is youtube-dl followed by a youtube url for downloading videos.

Keep working on the Linux angle. Win7 is increasingly dangerous for internet use, although arguably acceptable for offline use of legacy applications.

Yeah, it’s lime a trip back to 1969. Ok, it’s changed a lot and is no longer just “the dark place”. Does keep one’s fingers in top shape.
