    Well, there are Libertarians and libertarians. From your username I gather you’re a Libertarian and not just a GOP moron libertarian who might hate corporations but will defend their “right” not to be regulated, while receiving government subsidies.



  • To be honest, I don’t really care that much. Once upon a time I got excited about updates and new features, now I just want things to work. I enjoy exploring Linux and how it’s different, I like seeing the updates come in and it makes me feel safer, but at the end of the day, I’m just a normal user who needs much less than the OS offers.



  • I’ll keep the desktop with ubuntu and kde plasma and I’ve installed openSuse tumbleweed on the laptop. The ssd made a huge difference. I’ve made it dual boot with win7, which I’ve reinstalled on the laptop and they’re both blazing fast. It’s a steep learning curve, but I like the freedom of Linux versus the big brother approach of Windows.









  • My apologies, it’s only 4gb ram and I did overestimated the age as well. It’s i7-2630m processor, video is nvidia gt 540m.

    Based on another commenter’s advice I installed openSuse tumbleweed and it is quite snappy and I like it, but I’ve noticed that working terminal is different and since I’m transitioning from Windows and learning Linux I don’t want to learn two sets of commands. Decisions, decisions…
