Dear #Linux before breakfast friends, :ablobcouple:

Why use, not use or amuse #Penguin #empowered hardware? :ablobsunglasses:

Here is my #stirring #story from Windows to Linux user, be interested in ‘earing yours? :abloblurk:

I am #familiar with many #versions of Linux. The first one I tried was #Slackware which I installed from an already out dated #CD. It took me 5 weeks to sort of get a browser (#Netscape I seem to remember) on half the screen. I was #curious and my computer friends looked at this rather pathetic display with pity and #incomprehension. What madness was this? :byebrows:

I continued, getting Linux Magazine and realising I could barely understand 5% of what was being discussed.

I was a beginner again. So began #distro #hopping with very condescending ‘help’ from the penguinated.

However …

One pre alpha distro was able to provide me with advice on my numerous #questions. Eventually I settled on using this distro, once I got it working at speed. Puppy Linux. :ablobdancer:

#Puppy was small, VERY fast and continually different. As far as I was concerned if a distro was slow, why not use Windows or Apple? :ablobslurp:

I still distro hopped but worked very hard for much of the required donkey work for Puppy. I was #fascinated by programming languages but not much of a programmer. So it was mainly #Wiki, #forums and helping #noobs, which is were Puppy became much friendlier and usable. 🤣

After many #experiences, too many to go into I am now using a rolling release, #Manjaro, #Raspbian for my #Raspberry Pi’s and one olde computer with Puppy. Barry Kauler who created Puppy is now working on #EasyOS. However I am retired from new experimental distros. Now I prefer my Windows free #choice as I move towards #FOSS. Free and Open Source Software.

Quite a ride … How is yours going? :_stars:

#RonDeSantis Finally Got #CalledOut Over Alleged #ShoeLifts, #HighHeeled #Boots.

Surely DeSantis imagined that #hopping on a #conservative #podcast would make for a good #PR hit, only to face the #toughest line of #questioning of his #career.
