I moved to LMDE 6 when it came out, moving over from regular Mint. It’s so nice and boring… Which is exactly how I like my computer to be.

I’m on Debian proper, but indeed, the older I get, the more I like boring.

When I was a teenager, keeping the pile of garbage I called computer running was a hobby on its own. I enjoyed trying to compile with different flags to get slightly faster and tinkering with grub, wifi drivers, etc.

Today, I just need a stable platform.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
