One thing that frustrates me about #Linux and "normie" users.
I hear things like "Oh, sounds like Linux IS hard to use!" in reference to my frustration noises as I hammer away at my keyboard.
It's basically impossible to get a "normie" to understand that - no, Linux isn't difficult. The thing I'm trying to DO right now is difficult. It'd be just as difficult on any other OS, if it's even possible in that OS.
What is the age of the 'normie' users, is there any link between age and being able to use the command line.
sometimes you need to demonstrate a task that, while still on the command line is just quicker
eg. gm mogrify -resize 800x600 file.png is a lot quicker than doing the same thing in say gimp or otehr image manipulation program. Goes without saying for multiple files, this is really efficient.
So does the task we are doing influence the perception of what we are doing.
