I fucking hate installing shit on Ubuntu via APT when it's not provided by Ubuntu itself. ONE HUNDRED PERCENT OF TIME this will create problems with outdated keys or whatever. Then, to solve the problems of software that was supposed to be transparent, I have to go learn about layers upon layers of its inner workings and waste my fucking time. I suppose this is the Linux experience in general. But I don't want to know about GPG whatever whatever because there's no need for me to learn it outside of solving this stupid-ass fucking problem. I don't want to learn that sources.list.d is a fucking directory. I never EVER want to touch any kind of keys or whatever shit, I just want to follow some instructions and fucking install software in a simple way. curl whatever | sh it is, I don't fucking care.
All I want is to develop software, not dive into problems with my operating system because it decided to shit the bed.
