? If you’re hardware runs Fedora, it should run anything

what’s the problem? Happy to help if I can

these days it’s pretty easy to just pick one and go, but you can still run into issues, and for people new to linux it can be frustruating for sure. When I started using linux, I didn’t even really know what a terminal was, so a lot of the stuff I would read on forums etc (it was a long time ago) I couldn’t even put into practice. I once got insulted for asking a dumb question with both RTFM and PEBCAC but didn’t even know I had been insulted. Just kept plugging away and eventually got it going. I think PCLinuxOS was the first distro I ran seriously as a “daily driver” and I think that stuck because the community on the forums was the friendliest

I assume you mean Debian for ideology, not Sid, unless you have strong feelings about breaking toys

but is that because of the community nature of Debian, or because default it’s free software only? Guessing the former, since there are other options for the latter

is it that big because of the snaps? It used to be (well after it breached to 700M CD limit) ~1.5G and AFAIK doesn’t include a lot more default software?

Rebecca Black here, though now that Wayland is everywhere, should switch

one too many BSOD
this was 2005 ish

Mailnag?

wasn’t sure if I was on linux or esperanto community for a minute there

Sabayon linux. Like Gentoo but without the compiling. shit was always broken. Though the guy who made it had a good sense of humor and was very enthusiastic

Sidux/aptosid: great distro, absolutely worst community

The mixed blessing of GPLv2

don’t care about absolute performance, more interested in performance/watt

given Android, it might even be that most linuxes aren’t GNU/linux

When Android came out, it really hit this and the limits of the GPLvII home for me

Makes me nostalgic for when I got really excited for Ubuntu releases (circa 8.04-10.10 era)

What are you, a rival DCL school alumnus? I mean, not Weston obviously, cause that’s a thing. It’s a better name for a display server than Lincoln-Sudbury or Cambridge Ridge and Latin

Or are you just traumatized by the 128/Pike interchange traffic?

lol, that brought back memories

Umm, no. Go read it again.

Global warming shuts off the current, so the warm air doesn’t shuttle north, causing local cooling, not global

agree, it’s a Frank Lloyd Wright thing maybe mixed with Esperanto. It comes from abbreviating United States of North America (USONA), then because it’s popularity around the time of it’s invention by Zamenhof, was adopted into Esperanto as the name of USA, somewhat modified as “Usono” https://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landnomo_kaj_loĝantoj_pri_Usono

I’m not sure if @sovietsnake@lemmygrad.ml is an esperantisto or if it’s used in other contexts as well

I’ve got some bad news about book 3…
