Today at the grocery store a sweet older lady approached me and asked if I knew anything about computers. I said yes I do, and she produced a mouse saying that her son set up Linux mint for her and she was wondering if the mouse was compatible. It needed kernel version 2.6 or newer so I said that the mouse should work, guessing mint itself was probably newer than that kernel. Happy with my answer, we chatted a little, then she thanked me and left.
It was a nice experience, so I thought I should share!
Indeed. That’s why I switched to NixOS, set up once (which can be a major PITA), but then you’re done anytime you want to do that again in the future.
But I’m thinking of trying Debian, seeing if I can get it set up the way I want, and maybe switching to that in the future?
