There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐.

There are all kinds of issues that are being reported after Windows updates. In my opinion it just isn't worth the hassle. I tried dual booting for a while but I quickly got fed up. I absolutely would not recommend it for a beginner.
I recently replaced my laptop and would like to try mint on the old one. How would i go about wiping windows and installing Linux? I'm not super the savvy, but i am a quick study...
"Explaining Computers" is a great YouTube channel that covers Linux quite a lot. I think he recently did a video about installing Linux Mint. There's plenty of this stuff around. Just search "installing your-distro-of-choice"and you'll get plenty of content. I'd suggest watching a few of those before getting started.
Appreciate it
