  • Get yourself a hobby that you’re truly passionate about. You might have to do a few hobbies to find out the one you like the most. Do not worry about being shitty at said hobby. You don’t have to be good at something to enjoy it. As you do the hobby more, you will get better with time.

    With a good hobby and time, you’ll wean your focus off of the heartbreak. The real ‘soulmates’ you meet in life are usually found in doing the shit you enjoy. Even if you don’t meet someone, you’ll be 100x happier than most.

    Good luck friend.


  • It depends on what you are trying to accomplish.

    If you want a pretty desktop environment or you need all the bells and whistles of a specific Linux distribution (Debian, Fedora, Ubuntu, CentOS, etc.) then a virtualize environment is probably the way to go.

    If you just want to get used to playing with Linux commands using bash and you only need about 80% of the full functionality of a pure Linux environment, then Windows offers the Subsystem for Linux which installs like an app you can run at anytime.

    I personally use the subsystem for Linux on my Windows work laptop so I can quickly write Python scripts and test application configs for production servers. It’s quick and dirty and I can easily share files between Windows and Linux. It also has a small footprint on the computer as oppose to a VM.

    Whatever you decide, have fun! Linux is awesome.
