Open a terminal and enter the following command:

vi tmp

Don't get out of your chair until you figure out how to close vi. :getin:

Never ever ever shut the gently caress up about Arch, forever, under any circumstances.

Or, if you want to appear slightly less insufferable, but still heroically insufferable, never ever ever shut the gently caress up about Mint, forever, under any circumstances.

as someone using linux for the time being until i get a new computer in a couple of weeks, linux loving blows

i tried to find a launcher to open my doom wads with but all the linux ones you either have to compile it yourself or they're .jar files that just open as folders and not actual executables that i was led to believe

also if you really want to be indignant about linux like most linux users on 4chan get offended when someone uses the word "linux" and insist on calling it GNU/Linux

Learn how to traverse directories and edit files in vi so people looking over your shoulder can see you do basic things that look like they could be work related. Do this with a furrowed brow while making "hrmm" noises until whoever's there leaves then just google how to do whatever it is you're supposed to be doing. If it's some complicated networking thing maybe mumble something about firewalls or whatever "ugh these rules are hosed I have to just ugh ok gimme a bit" to buy some more time

Oh also since Richard Stallman was posted, he thinks child porn should be legal since it's free speech so you should probably just download loving loads of it on your work computer to show you're down with the whole free software culture

he also wants to gently caress his parrot and has been caught on video picking poo poo off his bare foot and eating it, while giving a speech to a class no less

i presume he lied about his skillset in order to get a job

which is exactly what I did and it worked out fine. just don't break anything in your first couple weeks.

if anyone asks you a complicated question ask "well how do you normally do this? I don't want to mess up your workflow." then you can trick them into explaining how you're supposed to do your job. also get really good at googling your problems.

BAM, you've earned a livable income.
