A great way to learn the basics. It'll be old, but that's ok. It's going to cover all the shell basics and then more. It's still going to be useful, it'll cost you pennies, you'll be able to dip into it when you want, and you'll be giving to a good cause.

Linux isn't dependent on the internet FYI. It doesn't send telemetrics data to Microsoft for example.
