From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

But rather crazy that one "recommend" command from debian would do this? I'm still q bit new to the Desktop world of Linux.
For when I downloaded Debian? I just went to their homepage and got the latest bookworm.
Live disk? or CD iso?
ISO and then format over to usb with Etcher π
What Desktop Enviroment did you install?
Try: sudo apt install tasksel && sudo tasksel
I'm a KDE kinda guy. Also for some reason not allowed to connect to WiFi anymore(via Terminal) ... Been troubleshooting this for too long now. Just gonna get OpenSuse on this machine instead me thinks.

Yeah that's something I'll setup this time! β¨
Is Timeshift equally relevant on OpenSuse Tumbleweed? Or is it Snapper I should use instead?

Cool, thanks π
linux distros assume that the your know what they are doing, so it show what it gonna do, and do it if the user say yes, even if it removing the entire system, because some users do that(removing and installing other system) so always be careful, especially with sudo commands, that why they ask for password, terminal is a powerfull tool, that why you can't runs these commands from GUI
