Long ago, I used Debian on my main PC but decided to go with Ubuntu on the laptop because it was easy to set up.
Later I switched to Debian on the laptop, too, because ultimately I felt Ubuntu was just Debian with extra steps.
31 0 ReplyI think you mean GNU/Linux
86 2 ReplyLook Richard no matter how many times you post this, no-one is going to start calling it GNU/Linux.
88 0 ReplyIn fact, systemd is arguable a more important component covering more aspects of system function in a lot of distributions: home mounting, boot process, logging, init, cron... I'm going to start calling it systemd/Linux, just to mess with Stallman.

Here's a picture of the linux distro family tree:
There's Debian, the distro.
There's Redhat/Fedora, which is commercial,
there's gentoo, where on installation, everything is compiled from source.
There is slackware, mostly for historical purposes (it was the first distro),
there's arch for
people who want to feel they're better than otherstinkerers,,there is openSUSE, which is like redhat but german.
10 0 ReplySlackware is the oldest distribution which is still active. I remember Yggdrasil came before it, and I'm looking it up, I see that Slackware was based on the earlier SLS.

Fellow student told me about it, I was already curious but hadn't yet tried any distros yet; they burned me a disk and brought it to class the next day.

2 0 ReplySoo, was he shot? I didn't watch this movie
2 0 ReplyThey start shooting when they first see him and he takes cover on the building we see behind them. He calls out that he's a Polish civilian, not a German soldier. They tell him to come out with his hands up. They ask "why the (German military uniform) coat?", he says, "I was cold". He stripped it off a dead man.
9 0 ReplyThe coat was given to him by a German officer, which also provided him with some food while he was hidden in the attic of a large abandoned house the Germans had taken over to use as base of operations. The officer gave him the coat on the night they retreated from the Russians, which are the dudes in the middlest frame.
