That makes sense

300 hours? What did you install?

Edit: nm, didn’t see the community name at first

Yeah, Gentoo builds everything from source. Supposed to make it faster, but I didn’t notice enough of a difference to make it worth my while.

For me, my first exposure to Linux was around that same time, but with SuSE. It’s still my go-to distro, even though I’ve installed and used dozens of different ones. Compiling Gentoo over a weekend is a fun experience at least once.

Not certain, I haven’t installed red hat in several years.

Aww, I miss Solaris.

I’m pretty sure that both Red Hat Enterprise and SUSE Enterprise require a license key.

Bingo

Or Linux from scratch

Off topic, but I’d never heard of Ventoy before and looking at it now, holy shit, I wish I’d known about it sooner.

Try it and see. It depends on your professors and what software they want to use for class. I was able to get through college just fine on Linux, but a couple classes were made easier with windows, so I ran a VM for those classes.

Yes, according to the article, anyway. That seems to be the speculation at the moment.

Yeah, they’ve been apparently working on its replacement for quite some time, so the “news” of its retirement actually comes because of the discovery of its replacement and the chatter around it. The linked article isn’t an official announcement of YaST’s death, it’s just speculation. But it’s very credible speculation.

Overall, I see this as a good move. YaST was dated and sluggish. I hated having to use it. Yes, it will make SuSE feel different now, but sometimes change is good.

Fuck Pewdiepie

And I’m pretty sure this key combination predates copy and paste key combinations.

My first time hearing about it, too

Yeah I agree with you here, your comment definitely has helped me finally make the switch (mentally, at least) to btrfs. I was a slow hold-out on ext4, but my next install I’ll go the butter route.

Looks neat
