I keep getting kernel errors. I don't like the new installer much. I'm testing it in a VM but I think I need something more stable.

Jeff Ratliff Bob Jonkman

I still haven't tried Mint Debian edition. I'm just used to building my own Debian. It's worth a try, though.

Jeff Ratliff lnxw37 (lnxwalt on quitter)

I still run Red Hat on servers. I'm looking for a dektop distro though and Fedora is just too buggy. And I've never been an Ubuntu guy.

Jeff Ratliff

There is no longer any reason for me to run anything but Debian. Unless, of course, I develop a desire for pain.

Jeff Ratliff

Trying to get a Fedora install to work. Pretty disappointing. Not sure how quality could have taken such a nose dive.

Jeff Ratliff Joshua Judson Rosen

It's definitely less flexible. Their multiple desktop implementation OK, but in general they want people to have fewer choices.

You can get used to Mac OS, but it still gets in the way. It's so much better than Windows, though. All my command line tools are there.

We have about 14 Linux servers I run, so it's easy to manage them from a Mac in a terminal. Sometimes I support Mac and Windows users too.

Jeff Ratliff Markov Dosto(y)evsky

You prefer dirty assets?

Jeff Ratliff Andrew Conway

I think I managed to keep it under 15 minutes, but it was difficult.

Yes, he wants to give my Mac to someone else and move me to a Linux machine.

Jeff Ratliff

I'm going to play Dwarf Fortress for 10 minutes before I have to leave for work. Probably a bad idea.

Jeff Ratliff

Has coffee. We're having breakfast together at work so I have not crafted an omelet to go with it.

Jeff Ratliff X11R5

Actually I do need to run. I've gotten a lot fatter since I stopped running. Thanks for the encouragement, metal friend.

Jeff Ratliff lnxw37 (lnxwalt on quitter)

I'm so glad the stomping people moved out of my apartment building. Pretty annoying.

Jeff Ratliff nybill

He just wants me to be the most productive, and we could use the Macbook elsewhere. I can do everything on Linux but run Mac OS.

Jeff Ratliff nybill

Half our servers are Linux and I run those.

Jeff Ratliff nybill

Yes. He knows I'd be at least as productive on Linux, but I do Mac support and occasionally need Windows. I can do some in VMs though.

Jeff Ratliff

Talked to my boss today about giving up my Macbook Pro and Windows machine for a Linux laptop. There are definite advantages.

Jeff Ratliff Joshua Judson Rosen

This empanada definitely sounds like a good thing. I would eat it.
