Only for places not worth working for. If Louis Rossmann saw this he'd probably offer her a job immediately.
And medical. Suppliers if CT, MRI and X-Ray gear are notorious for wanting to sell new gear and not providing software updates to work on new operating systems.
The same reason there are 98 characters in your message.
edit.. Incase you were serious.. how else would you represent less than 1%?
My first attempt was apt-get install. I'm fairly comfortable with Linux as a server (basic lamp setup) though I make no claims if being an expert.
It's clearly not in the default repos for Raspian (at least not when I tried), and that could be half my issue, my hardware while popular is not x86 or x86-64.
I'm no bash wizard, but I grew up with computers through the 80's and am comfortable with using a cli, doesn't bother me at all.
My OP got messed up with the Lemmy app I'm using and thus a large chunk went missing.
I'm actually using Raspian on a raspberry pi, and I don't think there is a binary for armhf available through the more typical means.
For everything else I just apt-get install xxx.
I'll revisit later.
I appreciate the effort in your post.
Neither do I. If the errors made sense or the tutorials were more current I suspect I'd have no issue.
Great, you can accomplish the bare essentials with Linux.
Now how do I install a program called chirp for programming 2 way radios?
Searched for a week and gave up as each set of instructions lead down a broken, redundant dependency rabbit hole with no solution in sight, Flatpack this, snap that, no explanation or even a searchable clue that could begin me a solution.
In windows I just unzip the nightly build to a directory of my choice, run the executable and it works.
Sure... Not everyone knows or needs to know about these edge case applications, but point stands, it works in windows, and everyone encounters an edge case sooner or later.
I'm keen to ditch the Microsoft hole, and I have no issue with making an effort to learn, but I can't afford to or my life in hold for hours or days at a time in order to accomplish things that already work in seconds.
I think my simple issue here is... I'm not incompetent. I can comfortably navigate a fine system in a shell, can mount and unmount, can tar -xvzf a tarball, can do most things up to writing a shell script from scratch (could cobble something
The process varies from country to country. Let me know where you're from and I'll try to point you in the right direction.
Sure, give it a go. The bands and the learning you get access to as a ham are a valuable tool.
But don't be that kind that gets a licence just for 'prepping'.
Having the gear without being proficient in it's use or having someone to talk to is pretty useless.
Second reply here. I didn't get it either. Is it really a meme if no-one knows it?
What PC game broke your OS? That's mad.
