Fucking christ, I'm trying out Ubuntu right now on a spare hard drive. I consider myself computer illiterate, but this OS is driving me crazy. I tried installing Steam, but it threw out some dependancies it needed and couldn't install. How often have you used windows, downloaded a program, only to find out that the program needs a whole bunch of other programs to run. And you have to do all of this in the terminal. If this is supposed to be Baby's first Linux, than real Linux OSs must be for maximum autists. This is an OS that won't remember any of your settings unless you sudo-setting!)(!()()( -- 59 ) -bash + tuna just so it will remember your default desktop resolution.
Operating systems are like tools. I need to screw something in. Windows is power drill. Ubuntu is a bunch of rocks that I have to look up online the propper chipping methods to form the shape of the screw driver, and this screw driver breaks every time I use it, so I have to make a new one every time I want to screw something in. TL;DR - I want an OS, not a child that needs to be babysat.

Try Kali Linux it's much more user friendly.

My serious answer. If you don't want to use Linux, don't use it. You will have to learn a different way of doing things, so if that is a problem for you, stick with what you know. If you still want to use Ubuntu, install the KDE Desktop Environment. It will make your life with Linux way easier, thanks to simple windows like Graphical Settings.
BTW a fun thing with Linux is there are lots of DEs to choose from, unlike Windows or OSX which only have one.

I only did it because I wanted to try using https://github.com/jcjohnson/neural-style with my 660ti

There are lots of cool amateur projects like that using Linux. I still recommend Kde for the Windows crossover.
