Distro-hop? Never. But getting something to work is way more satisfying to me than using that thing. (Slackware user since late 90s, recently diagnosed with adhd)

Slackware users won’t! At least not so far.

Or, kick it old school with reiserFS

Oh sweet child

Slackware current on btrfs for snapshots. Slackbuilds make the text go weeeeee, but the scripts will compile and build the package for you.

Plasma 6 hasn’t come over officially yet, but the main guy who put plasma together has a testing version out.

You could probably get the official proton app running, but I’m good with protonvpn-cli.

It’s been led by the same one dude since the early 90s. There’s nothing close to corporate about it. And there are great communities on IRC and matrix full of knowledgeable folks. And there’s linuxquestions.org too.

Thank you brave pioneers. I just felt confident to switch to btrfs last year.

I’m a long time slackware user, but I joined the party some time in 99 or 00.

I never had the pleasure of installing from floppies, but I did compile my own kernels to speed up boot time. Sometimes they would boot, sometimes they wouldn’t. That was part of the fun.

I’ve been on a retro kick lately. I have a pentium 200 mmx based machine that will eventually run a floppy installed slackware. Or at least it will if I can get it to work.

Streamio and RD are so easy that even my luddite wife can test all the linux distros she wants without my help.

And corps. Don’t worry, it’ll trickle down.

I’m doing trisquel on a sugar toast for my 5 year old and she loves it!

For now…

Everything has some sort of top:

Slacktop, craptop, proxtop, oldtop, wifetop, and batocera (because I keep forgetting to ssh in and change it).

Not Mackey D’s, but I placed an order for $100 of taco bell recently. They were still making it when I got there. It was the manager and 2 employees busting their asses to crank out the order as fast as they could while a line was forming at the counter and drive through.

The manager brought me the food and apologized for the wait. I handed him 3 x $5 bills as thanks. I genuinely appreciated the service and wanted to say thanks.

I’m 40 now and have been in recovery for over 8 years. A lot of people in my old circles never stopped partying, and many of them aren’t with us any more. I feel like I see a new tribute popping up every couple weeks on social media. More of my friends are dying than my parents’ friends.

Not sure, I’ve only ever been on Adderall and Vyvanse. And I don’t like Adderall. I was diagnosed late in life and just started this journey about 1.5 years ago.

I’m pretty sure this is it.

It’s a passion project/ mid-life crisis.

I would love if someone excused a juror due to a lemmy post.

Why isn’t this the top comment?
