I got my wife signed up for SDF, and she even spent some
time in commode and on anonradio. And that has been about it
so far. I've tried a couple times to encourage her; the
thing is, she's not really terribly interested in learning
*nix. I tell her it's easy, but then I recall that I've been
poking at it for more than 20 years, and she really doesn't
use the computer all that often in general...
Her main operating systems are MacOS and Ubuntu- mostly
because I banned Windows from our house quite a few years
back (got tired of supporting it.) Now, Windows lives only
in VMs for work purposes, and on a single tablet that has a
locked bios. She of course has no problem with the GUI in
any OS, since they are all pretty much designed for an
infant to use.
Soon, I think, I'll convince her to sit down and understand
a bit more about the command line. Her main draw is gopher,
actually; she likes the content that I've sent her proxy
links to. Hopefully I can teach her some basics and get her
writing soon.
