I hate bios. Plenty of interests (music, books, tech etc) and curious about loads more but trying to keep news/political engagement here to a minimum.

I can't top my last repost but my most surreal work conversation this year was at an event.
Smoking area and I'd been speaking with this guy for 5 minutes at most when he opens up his phone
"Let me show you my favourite tool"
😲😲😲
The tool was a rifle!

Listening to a webinar and one of the speakers is French with a terrible accent in English, and if you've ever wondered why that is, let me give you a few pointers.

Slackware 7.0 was the one that worked and taught me so much about PCs and Linux. First install was probably from diskettes too!

28 years ago, I learned about this amazing thing called Linux.
I immediately drove down to Best Buy and bought a boxed set of Red Hat 5.0. Probably the best $50 I've ever spent!
What was your first Linux distro?
