I always turn on LUKS during install. The only exceptions are when I’m doing tests of different distros on my machine that I lovingly call “FuckAround”.

It really is the best way to find out.

Mine was that I hate corporations. That’s it. That’s literally all that I needed to figure out Linux.

I follow KDE and Gnome.

#1 was true more in the late 90s to early 00s. The operating system has matured quite a bit since then.

I love Debian, but I hear a lot of people suggesting Linux Mint for new users. If you’re afraid of committing to a change, grab a cheap used system to try it out. Just know that if you have better hardware, itbwill really shine.

I’ve thought they were the same thing all these years.

Do people even need virtual memory these days?

Also, isn’t it harmful to SSDs?

NDIS wrapper. I hated that so much, I bought a natively supported PCMCIA card.

Is secure boot required for LUKS?

Triggered your PTSD, eh?

Mine was in 2005. It involved the NDIS wrapper, and lots of cussing.

Why Fedora? They’re basically Red Hat in a trench coat. I’d go with a EU based distro like Suse.

What is vt .social?

I’d love to try out some of their products, but my government has banned them. So much for the land of the free.

Glad to help. I’m highly suspicious of any corporation backed distributions.

Get rid of Kubuntu and install Pika OS, then get to gaming.

Ubuntu shipped ads from Amazon back in the late 00s. I stopped using them then and haven’t touched them since.

My issue is that I don’t trust Canonical. I was an Ubuntu user when they sold our searches to Amazon, and I am generally distrusting of corporations.

Good. This makes room for innovation.

I’ll check this out tonight when I get home. Thanks!

This is what I was looking for! I’ll check it out tonight. Thanks!
