First off, don’t judge an operating system
before you learn how it operates.
Just because things don’t work the same,
doesn’t mean they don’t work as well.
And no matter what,
always try at least three distributions of linux.

Know that there is
more
to the internet, than Facebook, Youtube, and Porn.

Learn how to end a process.
It may save your files one day.

And remember to not fear using all of your RAM at once,
you have it all for a reason.

Computer applications have,
and always will be,
free.
A computer application is only data,
and data is information.

Never keep information to yourself;
the best way to improve is to collaborate.
Just because you can’t add the graphics to the level,
doesn’t mean no one can.


Use the internet with respect.
If we replace our amazing library of information
we have made available at our fingertips
with trivial banter and threads full of nonsense,
and CSS LEET OWNAGE PWNAGE HACKS LOL – AOL Video(1),
how do we grow?

Also, do not use your caps lock button.
Ever.

Learn what a command prompt is,
and know sudo is your friend.

Know now that one DVI cord
won’t fit in every DVI port.

Don’t get 8 Gigs of RAM
when you only need 2.

And don’t get USB if you need the speed of FireWire.

Remember,
NEVER
feel silly asking any level of question about anything.
There is no such thing as a stupid question,
only a stupid answer.
