She must have had a Mac. Only Windows teaches both the knowledge and the fury to convince children to switch to Linux.
growing up my family had a mac desktop that i had access to while really young. eventually realized mac is a little terrible, so i tried bootcamp to get some proper use out of the computer. i successfully installed windows, but somehow fucked up and formatted the mac partition. all for windows to also suck
What did your parents do?
my parents were understandably pissed because i had deleted at least a few hundred gigabytes of photos and videos from the last decade. iirc i was banned from touching the computer for at least a year, which was funny because i was literally the only one who used it
Even as an adult I don't trust myself not to fuck up so whenever I do installing or partitionning, I always disconnect my drive that contains the personal files.
