  • 33 years with Linux (kernel 1.2.13, slackware). Worked at a distro. Worked in OS security – Unix and enterprise Linux. I helped build United Linux out of the dismembered corpse suse kicked over the fence as ‘collaboration’.

    Because of the validation issue in the .deb package format and others, I’m on a mixture of Rocky and Nobara.

    I’m subscribed to cloudLinux’s tuxcare enterprise updates for some older stuff, and I can’t recommend it enough. It’s excellent; and if almalinux releases their sLTS distro release and actually covers it for 25 years, that will be such a coup.

    I’m worried at the direction Linux has been taken by IBM and I hope it can be unfucked one day. I miss the reliable, fast boots and uncomplicated tooling before this systemd shitshow.
