The Ramen Dutchman

Nope, they’re completely separate distro families!

Because Mint does release minor releases every 6 months

My favourite part is the updater and I miss it in other distros. I don’t always want to update blindly, I hate it about Windows and Arch and NixOS don’t fare much better OOTB. Mint’s updater shows you what can be updated, the from and to versions, how much data would be transferred, and most importantly the changelog of each part!

I genuinely appreciate I can go through these, uninstall anything I don’t use anymore and learn what new things will come to my computer!

At least having this option beats "Build 16553 is downloading several gigs over your hotspot, it’s important to do this now trust us” from Windows 😒

I concur, my 7-year old laptop can run most light DEs flawlessly, such as Cinnamon, XFCE and i3, no matter the Linux distro or kernel. It struggles with even a fresh Debian GNOME install.

Why would you say something so brave yet controversial?

Try installing Firefox through apt.

More like: Upside to Debian, you never have to worry about the latest malware and bugs! Downside to Debian, you have to use yesterday’s everything…

I am actually enjoying most of it, yeah.

My Dell monitor’s brightness can adjusted on Bazzite Linux out of the box but I’ve never been able to get this working on Linux Mint, Arch, Debian nor NixOS :/

That’s okay, just be very careful updating rather manually.

Same, this or the Breeze Snow cursor, depending on my overall theme at the moment.

Oh, they that bad?

Discrimination

My GTX 970 has always worked on Linux Mint, even when it was only a year old

Dell’s XPS laptops have been great, as well!

Yes! Yes!! No!

I mean really, fuck Microsoft and Windows!

John Oliver’s show is doing amazing things, including the Drumpfinator addon.

What is that URL, though? I’m guessing I’m know it if I (happily) watch the episode?

Oh right, the UNIX epoch actually starts when UNIX was invented

Somehow, I didn’t expect that…

How so?
