Damn, I thought it was a command line shell for the 90s.

Aren’t we all ?

Always love to see article of non programmer people using Linux or Emacs!

Sulphur Aeon - Gateway to the Antisphere

Such a great album

I would like to know too! Never saw that writing system before.

The most baka OS ? =)

But for real that makes a lot of sense to use her for plan9 related stuff! I never saw that elsewhere and I’m glad to have discovered it here!

I want to believe it’s the one with the fancy feather war bonnet in the background.

Cirno? In the Analog Nowhere? Ludicrous

See you, space cowboy

Better keep a fireballs-casting fox with you in case you encounter one!

Welcome to the community!

Seconding all the previous comments recommending Linux Mint: since you come from Windows, you’ll probably feel most at home there. It is also possible to do all common tasks without ever opening the terminal.

Mint should run fine on any hardware, but to be most safe, try to use something that is at least 1-2 years old and stay clear from dedicated GPU as first (in particular Nvidia).

I’d also advise that the packaging situation for distributing software in Linux rn is somewhat messy. Thankfully, multiple format (apt, Flatpak) are directly available in the Linux Mint Software Center. In case you need to use some proprietary software (Chrome, Spotify, idk), you’d probably want to go with Flatpaks.

What should I do to use shared-memory communication from user-space on an immutable system?

I’m currently running Alpine on my RPi4 as a host for some Dockers, including pi-hole and it works great! The setup is surprisingly painless and you’ll end up with some insanely fast boot time. Highly recommended !

I’ve been trying Librewolf as a Flatpak on my work machine lately and it’s going great! It’s really a no-BS Firefox + privacy settings by default; love it. But in general I keep the default Firefox that come with my distro.

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for sharing!
