hey, when you're used to GUIs, the install finishes and you're staring at a command line with no idea how to get started with the desktop, yeah it's "the hard way".

It's not hard, but you have to know WTF is going on. It surprised me when I got sent to the command line after reboot, I lucked out because I changed DE while I was distro hopping so knew how to install from apt.

Debian, not a bad idea but where I live I have shared wireless only, so I’d have to install the wireless drivers manually using my phone to search for advice. Not even sure how that’d go. Easier if I had ethernet.

I installed through wireless. you just set it up as part of the installation process.

I love things like this, makes it so easy to learn when it's a really simple to understand and explicit implementation of a high level feature (read input, pass to command)

I'm trying to get established, I've just got a few more things to sort out before I can start putting stuff out there regularly.

I make music and write programs

I loved the faction angle for GTA2 , alongside the improved controls. I want to make a game inspired off it as one of the creative projects I'm trying to work on.

No wonder I loved the later Saints games.
