Lol I thought it did not exist anymore, like in Canada (where I am)

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 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!
I’d like to go there, but flight + 10 days of hotel+park+food is something like 12-15k$, insane.
End of 80s was un*x, I started using Linux as a main OS with kernel 0.99
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 WFH since COVID, best thing ever and only 8h work per day 🙂
Same in Canada, and I have not moved, I live ~12 miles (~20km) of my working place, 90% highway. Early 2000s it took 30 minutes or less, early 10s ~40 minutes, 2019 before pandemic it was already a good 45+ minutes. 2023+ it is more than one hour (forth, and 1h back).
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.
Some lyrics are now disappearing from Spotify :-(
I learnt Caml in the 90s at university, I was completely lost, in Prolog too.
It reminds me of a Black Mirror episode
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
Using Linux for 30 years, I’m with MX and Xfce for years.
