RE: Think With Caffeine #58 - Bugs

It would be great if ubuntu had a clearly structured wiki like arch linux for example, but alas. Often we have to settle for outdated guides written by incompetent people, something in the style of:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:very_cool_repo/video-drivers
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install video-drivers
It makes me want to scream: What are you doing? Why are you using apt-get instead of apt? Why do I have to plug in a third-party repository? And following a guide like this will get you nothing broken at best and a black screen and a console at worst.

Yep happened to me in the past. Sometimes I even have to dig in the answer a bit further because a simple google or even ddg won't do. Recently, I found the worst guide that was including all possible things the user tried without MENTIONING that it was not the code to solve it and it was only the user trial. I don't get it when they have to add third-party repo, I mostly avoid it.
