I have been using Linux as my daily driver for quite some time (around 5-6 years) and usually manage to get whatever needs to be done. However, I now wish to learn it in a more structured manner, which includes understanding utilities and the workings of Linux. What resources should I look out for?

    Fine, take the structured approach to ”Linux”:

    • 3-5 years of university studies with a well designed curriculum, including operating systems basics, networking, security, data structures and compilers. This will get you the basic stuff you need to know to further delve into ”Linux”.
    • Add MIT’s ”Missing Semester” online course. This will get you more proficient in practice.
    • Go grab a RedHat certification (or don’t, it’s not worth the paper it’s printed on). This will ensure you have a paper certifying you are sufficiently indoctrinated. It’s also a structured course in Linux.
    • Go do stuff with your newly acquired knowledge and gradually build up your competences.

    If that investment seems a bit steep, take only the last step, build a homelab and take a structured approach to any interesting subjects you encounter doing that.

          Oh so there are more steps. This is getting complicated, especially since I wouldn’t know where to put a dishwasher or what to feed them. When does the hammer come into play?

            You can put it in the dishwasher to clean it. Just make sure to dry it and oil it a bit afterwards, otherwise it will rust. In most countries, this is covered by structured teaching in chemistry, contained within the concept of ”school”.

              I’m not trying to clean the hammer, I’m trying to use the hammer to do my dishes. I’m starting to think you’re not being serious with me. What’s your qualification in terms of hammer-based daily chores?

              Also, I failed every year of chemistry HAAAAARRRR-DDD.

                Hello, I’ve been trying to reach you about our Online University where we Teach Hammer 4 You. Plz run this executable and click ok on all the popups.

                  Wow, if I’d known this would be a whole-ass university education, I wouldn’t have bought dishes OR that hammer. While that executable does its thing, can you tell me what degrees specifically I can earn with you and how long they take on average? Are you certified in EU countries? Will I be qualified to hammer dishes in Germany? Plates AND mugs? What about hammering windows? Those need a clean too, now that I look at them.

                  Edit: Speaking of windows, does your course teach how to use a hammer to switch from Windows to Linux?
