Gentoo was my second linux Distro ever some time in 2003 or 2004.

Installed it by printing out the full install doc, which was like 30 or 40 pages, and starting up a stage one install. I got through the entire install by following the instructions because the documentation was that good.

I remember having a problem and hopping on an irc chat to ask for help and people there being baffled about the basic level questions I was asking while having a working Gentoo install.

I have $25 wired IEMS that sound better than my most expensive Bluetooth tws sets. I’ve taken to just listing to podcasts and YouTube videos with my Bluetooth sets at work.

I used to be a big fan of Samsung, but over the past couple years it has become a do not buy brand for me. They keep doing anticompetitive stuff with their phones so my next phone won’t be one.

Start of 2024 my Samsung TV that wasn’t that old up and died. And my less than a year old Samsung monitor is flickering.

My watch 6 classic is my favorite smart watch I’ve ever had, but in order to get it working well on a non Samsung phone you need to go through a bunch of bullshit hassle.

Yeah, they’ve got a ton of great documentaries there, plus some other series that are pretty great.

If I had to give up YouTube I’d move to Nebula. It’s been growing and is steadily getting better.

I don’t use the system anymore but at the time the parts I had weren’t supported.

I got a bunch of rgb in order to set it all to purple on my desktop. But then I started using Linux full time on it so I lost the windows rgb software, and was too lazy to fix it. So it went from looking amazing to this ugly clashing thing for the last 3 years I used the system as each part eventually reverted to its demo mode.

I currently have a prime sub, but anything I watch on prime I just pirate instead. I’m on linux so torrenting gets me better video quality.

I moved to a laptop for my main system for portability, and I’m really enjoying the reduction in my power bill from my previous threadripper 1950x build.

Lately I keep coming back to Garuda Gnome. I would prefer to use KDE, but kde seems to have issues with my setup in different ways in x11 and Wayland. Hoping things are better in KDE 6

Thanks! Just grabbed it. It is my favorite so far, probably cause I used infinity on Reddit.

I’d buy a house. Not something huge, but decently sized riverfront property.

I use Garuda Gnome Linux. It’s setup nearly how I would set up an arch install from scratch, just working out of the box. I’ve done a lot of distro hopping in the past year, but I keep going back to Garuda.

It also made participating in smaller subreddits a little less satisfying, even though I liked the conversations in those more.

There was just something about a random comment in a giant subreddit suddenly getting me sooo many points, more than I had made in months!

Logically I knew karma didn’t really matter, but big numbers gud!
