Completed 2 years at LQ! A note of thanks.

I just noticed that I had completed two years at LQ recently (2 years 5 days as of today).

We forget that Linux can be frustrating sometimes

I have always criticized people who complain about Linux on forums and while I do think that some of them do troll for the sake of trolling, I think I can relate to some of the sufferings of other Linux users which I think we tend to forget once we smooth over all the configuration of the system and get it to work the way we want it.

I recently changed my ISP from a cable provider to a DSL one. Getting it to work has taken me a long time, not because Linux could not get it to work,...
