Buy a Raspberry Pi, stick Debian on it (very similar to Ubuntu) and learn how to dick about with SSH in the terminal. Communicating with, and controlling, the Pi using an Ubuntu system gave me extra confidence and knowledge with the terminal.

Playing with a Raspberry Pi over SSH is very forgiving to the novice. You just download an ISO file of Raspbian, write it onto a memory card and run it on the Pi. Then if you gently caress something up over SSH you can just write over the memory card and you're back where you started. I remember doing the classic trick of enabling ufw on the Pi, then logging out and realising I hadn't allowed port 22 (the SSH port) so it was impossible to log back in again. A quick image write later and I was up and running again.

I think Mir is necessary for Canonical to go ahead with cross compatibility with Ubuntu Touch devices (phones, tablets etc.). It's a shame that they couldn't have developed Touch compatibility on top of Wayland, but I have no idea how possible that would've been.
