If you hate bloat you like Slackware. It doesn’t assume anything about how you want to use your computer, so it’s more painful for a lot of folks. Other distros will try to do things for you and will ultimately end up doing something someone doesn’t want. With Slackware you learn a lot and you get a rock-solid system that will do whatever you like, but you have to be willing to manage it.

I’ll look into that, thanks!

I just don’t want to be a windows systems engineer anymore, and I’m having trouble getting interviews for linux administration roles.

For sure, my company is willing to pay for it, I wouldn’t be paying for it myself.

I just don’t want to work with windows anymore, and every job I get is windows centric; therefore I get a small amount of linux experience on my resume and the cycle continues. I’m contemplating getting the RHCSA and the RHCSE in order to get linux-centric roles (because although I’m down to take a cut in pay and settle for a junior position, most of the jobs available seem to be for senior or mid-level positions).

That’s an odd way of pronouncing sudo telinit 0

NMH!

SLACKWARE!!!

Couldn’t explain it, really; I just want to grab the person and explain that Taco Bell (or whatever) is not an object you can get some of, and Taco Bell doesn’t sell Taco Bells in any amount, they sell tacos! (In the voice you would speak to a toddler in, of course)

I hate it when people call the product of a company the name of the company; like “let’s go get some Taco Bell” instead of “let’s go get some tacos from Taco Bell” or “Let’s go eat at Taco Bell”.

This, except Slackware should be listed first as it’s the eldest

This is very close to my workplace but we have about 17 domains to work across, with a separate account for each. It’s frustrating sometimes, but in the end I get paid the same either way.

I use wger at home and it’s waaaay overkill. Designed for the gym part, probably not the whole package

Weber Smokey Mountain 22.5 inch smoker. I’ve cooked for 30 people at a time off of it, it’s easy to use, holds temp well, lots of mods, etc. etc.

Am I just a tech-peasant by using Book Reader? It’s not the flashiest but I dig it.

Slackware!!!

I work from home, and my employer allows up to six weeks from a different country, per country, per year. In theiry, as long as I kept moving every six weeks I could travel constantly.

In reality I have three children, so I get to travel about once a year.
