Using Linux for 30 years, I’m with MX and Xfce for years.

Finally! I had to uninstall FF because it was taking ~5% per hour, so in a 8h night, 40% of the battery was eaten by FF, even if I killed it there was a process somewhere
Same, I’m using MX Linux with native .deb and never ever installed a flatpak, so I have no clue what it is
I went through sh->csh->tcsh->bash
I am an embedded developer, I take the HW from office to bring at home, in the basement I have my “home office” with benches, soldering station, oscilloscope, etc so I can fully develop here. Working on a kitchen corner table would not be doable, true
Software developer here, WFH since March 2020, I don’t want to go back to office. If I would apply for a new job, my first question would be “is this 99% remote?” because I don’t mind once a month going there from like 10 to 2 to avoid trafic jam.
End of 80s was un*x, I started using Linux as a main OS with kernel 0.99
Al Bundy is my hero, and boy do I had/have a crush on Kelly, incredible
Why did you start using linux? it was the 80s/90s, windows didn’t exist, I used un*x at uni, of course I couldn’t install HPUX, AIX, Solaris or IRIX on my 386, so I installed Linux. There was minix but it was not free. Also BSD was tempting.
Origin? A couple of floppy images downloaded from usenet :) there was no distro really.
I’m using MX, debian based, apt package, I have 0 flatpak/snap. They are up to date on about everything, like the latest Firefox I got this morning in a simple .deb that nala (apt frontend) installed without problems.
I never ever installed a snap/flat in my Linux years.
Australia? Most used word : cunt
I’m so glad to use a distro with 0 flatpak/snap/whatever, my FF is always the latest one, with a simple .deb install from apt, ❤️ MX Linux
I still used uuencode/uudecode to transfert some file between terminal, a few weeks ago
Some lyrics are now disappearing from Spotify :-(
Restarting like that, it’s either overheating (reaching 100°C) but you ruled out that, so low voltages, maybe some voltage on your PSU is weak, sometimes a 1.3V becoming 1.2V and it reboot.
I learnt Caml in the 90s at university, I was completely lost, in Prolog too.
I’m listening to African music like Kora, I discovered Toumani Diabaté and Balaké Sissoko, this is pretty cool, I really like it, it’s relaxing
I’m grepping log since the 80s/90s, still do
I tried to always use AMD, 386SX33, 486DX4/100, Duron 1000, Athlon XP 2200, then went a laptop life with Intel, but since COVID/WFH I went back to AMD, I have a 5600H in a miniPC
It’s 120V and 240V
