Linux

There’s been a lot of push recently (especially on some youtube channels) for “The Year Of Linux On The Desktop”. Partly because of the crap Microsoft has been pulling. Partly because Windows is turning into a bigger pile of shit than it’s always been. And maybe there’s some contrarianism involved. And it seems Linux is slowly moving up the Steam charts. I find this amusing; I’ve been a Linux user since the boot+root 0.

I got asked a question… this gives me a chance to write an opinion. I have lots of them! What Linux distribution should I use? Oh boy, this is a biggie and could almost be a religious one! In the past we had the Unix wars and then the Linux distro wars. But with Microsoft making Windows worse and people trying out (and liking!) Linux is becoming a viable desktop operating system.
