I am not using Mint, but for whatever reason I installed TimeShift.

I recently tried a new Alpha upgrade of my distro because I thought it would be cool to check out. Also, when I ran the command, I expected it to be like “Are you sure you want to do this ||shit||?” and instead it just full-on started upgrading to the new alpha version of the distro.

After 30 minutes of waiting and the upgrade being 40 percent done, I thought, “Well, it’s not going to be that bad. I’ll just ||go to the strip club||, come back, and I’m sure it will work fine.”

Lo and behold, I come back ||from the strip club|| and NOTHING WORKS. My VPN doesn’t load anymore, parts of the screen are unusable, the new interface is strange, things I use daily are just not running at all. I try to install these things using the command line and can’t. I try updating but apparently apt is already doing something, which makes no sense.

||FUCK||, I thought to myself. I opened TimeShift thinking “there’s no way this will ||fucking|| work, I’m going to lose this entire weekend dealing with the aftermath of this ||shit||.”

I use TimeShift and about 6 minutes later, everything is fine. It’s exactly the same as before, it works perfectly. It’s like I never ran that awful command at all.

I just wanted to give a thanks to the developers who made TimeShift. What a great program!
