    Yeah, I know. I usually try to give new accounts the benefit of the doubt. Maybe they don’t know where and how to ask things in a way that actually helps them…

    But making a second account, and posting the same question in the same incorrect community again… that’s just too much for me.

      I need to go over the lesson again. I need to study this post and the one I had made yesterday. No more questions tomorrow. Whatever glitches l come across, l shall ask as comments.

      Can’t really figure out, so many people have given me so many suggestions, which l tried out, but this particular folder refuses to budge due to some mysterious reason.

        It still doesn’t explain why you are switching between 5 (yes, five) accounts, and not answering our questions. For the reference:

        Same AI picture, same questions about that specific folder that you could have nuked a long time ago.

            I browse by /New and I see the same question over and over. Why? I mean… what’s the point? I’m pretty sure you’re not a chatbot, but what you are doing is very inefficient. When I started learning Linux, fucking things up was mandatory to learn, and deleting a directory would have been done in a few hours without previous knowledge.

            You have been working on this stupid folder for days. A name that will never exist in a real situation. My advice: uninstall WSL, reinstall WSL, and move on.

              Are you serious about that ? Me uninstalling wsl and then reinstalling it ??

                Yes. It’s a 15 minutes job. I did the equivalent a hundred times when I was learning, and I had no web site or community to help me.

                RTFM, lurk more, etc.

                  Probably there was no internet ??

                  But you had some professor to guide you, but l’m doing an online course. There’s a help community on discord, which l found very unhelpful.

                  I installed the WSL with the instructions of Gemini, but l’ve got to use my discernment while using such instructions.

            Having so many accounts is getting kind of ridiculous. Please just use one or two accounts.

            Not everyone wants to see so many questions. When those people block you and then you make a new account and ask many questions again with the new one, you create work for all those people who need to block your new account too.

        You don’t learn the lesson again by disguising yourself and asking the question again. Are you a crazy person

        You’re changing the wrong variable. Comically wrong. This does not produce learning.

        Next time, please try a community that fits your question like !linux4noobs@programming.dev or !linuxquestions@lemmy.zip

        I can see how Explain Like I’m Five might seem right but it’s usually meant for broader questions like “ELI5: why is the sky blue?” or “ELI5: can you explain that thing that is currently going on in the world?”, not your homework.
