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

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 came to write the same comment, they easily start at 5AM
I Always save the bitlocker info on a usb drive, in case of… I had to type the 40 or so digits a couple of time!
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
MX Linux, Debian based, no systemd ;-)
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.
To where? If you migrate to Canada you have to pass medical exam and all
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.
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
When you see what ONE coder was able to do in the 80s, with 64K of RAM, on a 4MHz CPU, and in assembly, it’s quite incredible. I miss my Amstrad CPC6128 and all its good games.
Yup, we call this the “clito” in France, since the 90s for sure
I learnt Caml in the 90s at university, I was completely lost, in Prolog too.
Already had huge X Terminal on HP mainframe, using X11R3 and mwm etc. xeyes, xload, xbiff, xterm, it was the time!
I guess it was in the 80s, open a new xterm, ps -edaf | grep vi, kill the process, then man vi to read how to exit properly.
This is how I learnt unix, do a ls in /bin /usr/bin /etc, man every command
Always has been, and I am using Linux since 1993 (my first install was kernel 0.99, on floppies, on a 486DX50)
I have a HP Mini311, 11.6", it has a dedicated Nvidia GPU that can decode video in HW, in VLC but not YouTube I think… It’s an old slow atom 32bits too ☹️ but works with MX.
