I've got a little time to kill. Who wants to talk about #Linux today?

@vwbusguy Iβm definitely the latter of those. Only been using Linux for 2-3 years now but have still had a bit of a distribution hopping journey in that time. Currently trying to settle with Tumbleweed.

@seestevecode The best way to settle in is to get involved/connected with the community. Much of the OpenSUSE people are on Discord and Matrix.

@vwbusguy classic treks my first road bike was a borrowed trek from that age (shifters in the frame! like in the classic cycling pics!). Later I got germanified and I ride a 2015 canyon (also behind my face in my profile pic )

@vwbusguy any idea what a good combination of distro and WM / DE is for gaming regarding NVIDIA drivers availability (as in: donβt force me to try installing the drivers from NVIDIA.com) and potentially tearing / input latency / β¦ all the other fun stuff that matters?

@porras Very cool! I bought this one secondhand several years ago and have kept it up since. It's not the fastest bike on the road, but it's been a reliable workhorse that's been cheap to maintain. I commute to work with it, four miles each way.

@vwbusguy The first thing I *installed* it to disk on was an HP laptop I had in my first year of college; it was Ubuntu 8.04.
Before that I'd played with Knoppix live CDs on our family computer (some Compaq; I don't remember the processor model). This would have been 2006-ish. I also played with Ubuntu 7.xx live CDs on that same computer when I found out that Canonical would send them to you in the mail
Edit: for reference I'll be 35 in a month.

@vwbusguy thanks! I didnβt know about this one.
Shipping Gnome by default and built on top of Fedora should also mean no problems getting my usual ML stack up and running

@jbowen I'm 40 and began my Linux journey back in 2005. You're in good company.

@fallenhitokiri Heck yes! As a heads up, it's Atomic (immutable) so more like Fedora Silverblue than Workstation under the hood. You can most definitely do ML with it.
