@thelinuxEXP what's happening in #Denmark is interesting, hope they do it right. LibreOffice needs a while to get used to and you have to understand that it's not MS Office, when you do, it's a joy to use it.
I've been relying on the command line more and more recently to do some quick changes on my system, convert videos, and do some server admin, and I realized I had never really made a quick tutorial on the basics of the #Linux command line, so here we go:
