There is a way to get genuine help from a Linux forum.
Say "Fuck this, I'm going back to Windows".
Two ways, the other is by saying "solved" with a half baked solution that's incorrect.
Don't do anything rash, give me a minute I'm wrapping the command with Tkinter
I swear it feels like for a lot of the things I do on Linux there's a GUI app for it, but then if I wanna do something as basic as adjust my fan speed I gotta use the freaking terminal.
Like it's always at the worst possible time.
Edit: I’ve installed a distro on my gaming PC that I really liked, used it on my laptop. Sensors and fans were fully supported. Did not work at all on my PC so I told it to fuck off. It’s just too much of a pain to set up.
I guess you could say Linux fanboys' silliness is...
...terminal.
