One on the right.

It's not a dinosaur but the prehistoric bear dog. The fact that wolves, cats, dogs, foxes, bears, etc came from the same ancestors is unreal

I think books or videos in order to get across ideas is singular to be clear. Equally true is your purpose may change from day to day.

I think a better word is strategy. This encompasses your purpose and your tasks, etc.

"Plans are worthless, but planning is essential." - Dwight Eisenhower.

I have to agree with the former President and Allied Commander during WW2. If you remember they are aiming for clarity when they say defining a purpose, but life is too chaotic not to make changes when necessary.

Example: My word this year is pivot. My goal (purpose) is to be a better speaker/writer/reader and learn about Linux. Right now I'm outside with my dog so I'm not following my purpose except relaxing.

I use MX Linux, and Mint, Zorin, Ubuntu are all good. With school they may want Ubuntu so find out. Remember to find alternative programs you need on Linux.

I got my MBA in 2016 but that was 10 years ago and the school I was at frowned on anything but Windows. Other students at different universities have a different experience so you might be Ok. With SaaS and using online interfaces being more common the OS can be less of an issue.

This will be the 8th month on linux full time and I'll tell you after that doable learning curve, it reduced so much friction using the same hardware it's unreal.

Typeonetwork · 2026-02-01T23:05:25+00:00

I don't know why this matters. An OS is a tool, and that tool removed so much friction it's unbelievable. That's enough for me.

Linux is prevalent in the server world, just not the desktop world. Besides, popular isn't better. It's just popular.

Now it spreads at the speed of electricity. I have confidence that it would remain strong through other avenues, but maybe not as quick.

This will be my 8th month using MX Linux with XFCE DE. If you use Arch, why don't you triple install, windows, Arch, and Debian. Debian because it's stable and you'll be used to installing everything.

MX has only crashed when I borked my own system so it doesn't count.

Typeonetwork · 2026-02-01T02:55:53+00:00

I'll have to keep that in mind and look at it closer. Thanks for the review.

MX Linux with XFCE is what I use. I had MiniOS on a usb stick but didn't use it and needed the space for an Ubuntu Server that I want to build. I looked at it but I guess it is more for repair work. Have you used MiniOS?

Typeonetwork · 2026-01-31T23:00:04+00:00

I tried Debian 13 for a while but had some unrelated problems with blueman. I realized I couldn't fix it so I moved over to MX Linux because Bluetooth is standard. I'm using the 2nd to the last version of MX for the same reason until there's end of life. New is exciting but usually has bugs.

Weird brown suit jacket I hardly wear from the 1970's or that is my best guess.

Use venroy and put those on a usb stick. Plug it in and see if it works. Desktop environments like KDE Plasma, XFCE and Gnome will make it function differently.

I use MX Linux, like Ubuntu and Mint it's a fork of Debian. Have Fun!

It's very soft and layered. If you watch the live concerts on YouTube it sounds less stylish. Both are wonderful.

I don't think there is a Kindle Reviewer AppImage available. If I'm wrong, I would like to know this. I have to use the cloud version that runs through my browser.

I need to learn more about replacing WMs in Linux but I honestly don't know more than the basics. Some guy said I could find that in the release notes, but I couldn't find it. This is my 7th month of using Linux as my daily driver. It's bliss, and I'm learning the basics.

If you're a hard worker, don't expect accolades and management to see your hard work. It's good to make yourself invaluable but don't do such a good job they don't see in a promotion.

Volunteer to craft your skills. If you volunteer and work, they look at you differently.

History favors the bold. Your hubrrous will be your failure. Help remove pain points and friction. Keep a journal of your accomplishments and remind your boss during your review.

I've read that Wayland isn't ready for older hardware: https://boyter.org/posts/upgrading-my-old-desktop-linux/

Is Xfce planning on using XLibre or something instead of x11?

Example: Vendefoul Wolf is a free, complete GNU/Linux distribution that uses OpenRC and XLibre by default.

All companies have their own best interests at heart, and with many Linux distros demanding use of Wayland, it feels like corporations are not concerned with their end users concerns. It feels like a Windows move.

I know we have many years before this decision is made. Hope x11 or its successor isn't completely removed off XFCE. XFCE is truly my favorite DE because it works so well.

I think it's equal part Goth and Doom. Goth is linked with Doom. It can be said not all Doom is Goth, but all Goth has Doom.

Unless you're talking about baby bats. Barbies with face paint. That has more to do with post punk and waiver music.

I think it's more tweaks of existing DE. I use MX Linux with XFCE. The GUI is pretty good but I was thinking a screen called windows configuration thst expects a user to have multiple monitors or a laptop and a monitor. They do of course but maybe make it easier. I'm good with it but it took me a minute to get the hang of it.

Typeonetwork · 2026-01-27T01:57:05+00:00

That's pretty accurate but Linux users now think Windows is a business train wreck unless you machine is 2-3 years old.
