Installation Anxiety

[AdmiralMemo]

And, for the updated version, with flipped beards, go to escapistmagazine and search for Installation Anxiety

[bleedinggloves]

So weird seeing Graham without the beard and seeing Paul with a Serj Tankian Beard xD

[Rustheredfox]

the title should be changed from what it is to "linux all the things!"

[TitanAura]

Did Graham steal Paul's beard or was this filmed in an alternate dimension?

[TitanAura]

@TitanAura Or.... maybe Paul stole Graham's beard.... I.... I'm so confused!

[linuxdude1]

what was the last thing Paul said at the very end of the video?

[J4N15]

Doesn't everybody know a guy like this?  He overclocked my iPod...

[YaroKasear]

namineofsilent - What the hell are you talking about? X and GNOME loooooooooooooooooooooooong predate Ubuntu. Linux has had GUIs from the very beginning.

Hell, X predates WINDOWS.

Seriously, I wanna find out where idiots like this get these "facts" about Linux.

[TalosParoxi]

it's a partition file server now!

[Drakoman07]

HAH EYEPATCH

[mkantor1]

Sautéed or deep-fried is the only way to go with pirogies.

[jameswu9]

Why do you look like Gorden Freeman?

[dsevil]

I <3 Linux but this is great!

[gubaguy]

thats odd... is this a diffrent video from the one ive seen before?

[lm2739]

I knew I heard the unskippable guys voice before.

[sethzard]

I prefer the one on the escapist

[jetslimo]

THIS IS SO ME!!!!!!

[foobula]

Why does this look familiar? Yay for remakes!

[Mackaber]

got linux on my laptop, my ipod touch and my wii :)!

[AdamTheAlien]

Out of curiosity, do you guys plan to upload the reshot/updated version of this video that you aired at w00tstock?

[harryfmk]

Hahah nerds.

[Bobbo110]

God... my dad was almost like this for a while when he bought Windows 7... He wanted to install Windows 7 on ALL of the computers in the house =/. And he wouldn't stop talking about it either.

[1momerat99]

i hear this kinda crap from mac fanboys and people that i guess cant quite figure out how to use linux ive installed it on noobs pcs and they love it they say their pc dosent get slow anymore and they forgot what a virus is

[PvtTeRRa4]

I facepalmed.

That was fucking awesome.

[sonikdude49]

mac's ftw

[hornylink]

<3 linux. and Paul's way out of touch, full eye drivers have been out for at least a year.

[spiterider]

@hornylink this video cam out on april 13th of 2007, which perfectly correlates with the beta version he was using.

[hornylink]

@spiterider Dude, it's a fucking joke.

[Dradoc]

Eye Patch! Clever...

[SpacehamsterDotCom]

Running a command line?

How retro... I haven't needed to run a command line in years using linux.

[namineofsilent]

yeah but linux is run in a command line

ubuntu and kubuntu created a visual interface but linux is straight command lines

[hornylink]

that's because you can't use linux.

[eugeniy123]

Linux is no laughing matter!

[Septimius]

is this by the Unskippable guys?

[loadingreadyrun]

This predates unskippable, so technically unskippable is by these guys, but yes, same Graham and Paul.

[Septimius]

Yeah, recognized the voices :D

[screamingturnip]

Sorry to put a technical on top of a technical, but correlation doesn't depend on chronology. Your still mostly right but sadly like bloodshed, pedantry leads to more pedantry. I fear we have a World War I-esque dilemma so in a terrible Franz Ferdinand is dead sort of a way, FIRST!

[ZombieMantis]

Yes, Andras. That was the joke.

Thank you for your contribution.

[Paratrooper177]

Yet installing linux onto appliances seems perfectly reasonable to you. Good job internet man...

[owlforbidden]

have you even watched any of the there videos

they make comedy skits there supose to be real!

and did you really think this was real there?

[AndrasAnders]

HAHA, OMG I can't belive that so many people think that I was for real! Offcourse it isn't possible to install linux on everything.... I'm not a noob HAHA

[mikeyk777]

FUCKING RETARD

[honorshark]

So stupid.. NetBSD runs on everything. (Who saw a toaster operated by a linux? geez)

[yjcjaycee]

"The Eye Patch" lolz

[arthursucks]

Hack the planet?

[htmldude]

I. Have. To. Get. Linux. On. A. Lava. Lamp.

No! Hmm.... uh...

Any suggestions?

Hows about um, A printer?

Like shove components in places, use flash drive and swap, mini kernel, and a small self made typing program, and call it typeprint, you type, then click print, no fuss...

[Yazdmich]

@htmldude the firmware on most printers is probably a distro of linux.

[IckleBanana]

Brilliant parody on how crazy some Linux Fanboys are. Linux is great but it's really not what I want on my PS2 or Wii....or my Front door...lol.

[potsdogho]

I dunno. Xbox and front door sound kinda reasonable.

[xstyr]

Because I don't think like that..

But that would be pretty awesome to run the whole kitchen on a cron job

[galatix27]

I LOVE Scorched Earth!

Man, Graham is gonna have so much fun now...

Assuming he can see it.

[ZerqTM]

I might end up installing linux in my wearable computer once its done X)

[Khal337]

Wearable computer, you say?

Me want to see.

[EpicWarbz]

pics or no proof.

[The4LA2Baker0]

for real, i want to see too!

[thephatbunny]

One of my favourite classic LRR videos.

[nmnnotmyname]

I lol'd. It's not like this of course; Linux on the Wii can do motion sensing and it doesn't interfere with playing games, etc.

But still, i loved the video - funny.

[ZerqTM]

Lulz you really could install it on a toilet if it was a japanese one... unless those allready run linux...

it is used in embeded devices after all... :3

[DanieleGiorgino]

This is one on my favs.

[TheUltimatePlatypus]

Videos like this one sometimes make me wonder if the entire story was made after the punchline.

It's still awesome, though.

[Daco65]

its funny to know that when the video was made there was no way to play wii games on it if the wii ran on linux (with gui)

now it would be possible with the gamecube/wii emulator dolphin ;D (if wii emulation on linux works that is)

it would be horrible slow tho...

[namineofsilent]

wow this is old!!! still funny after all this time!

[HockeyDiane]

The video I used to get my linux-friends to love you guys :D one of my favorites.

[Xphome]

Great video.

[KilledByDefault]

"I'll call it: The Eye-Patch!"

*facepalm*

[runie360]

my favorite video of all time

for some reason it seems like its playing back at a low framerate.

plz just be temporary

[Zhyard]

Love this one. I think this is pretty much the start of scientific/insane Paul?
