I didn’t know that, in this context, “Woz” was short for “Wozniak.” Hopefully he’s enjoying that Apple legacy!

You have, I’m sure unintentionally, reminded me of an old peer-to-peer sharing client.

Fair enough.

See the other response to justify that part, heh.

That’s why “in this context”!

TIL. Thank you!

What’s Molly in this context?

Awesome answer. Thank you for taking the time. I’ve enjoyed getting to know this part of your story.

You sound like someone with whom I’d get along well. My Linux origin story isn’t terribly dissimilar to your BSD one; I hosted a file server on a Windows server when I went to college. I met another, somewhat older as I went to college early, nerd there and he recommended replacing my Windows server with Linux. I don’t recall if he gave me the install disk. I think my first Linux system was Red Hat before they became Enterprise and my friend was right - it worked better than a Windows server. I tried to convert all of my systems to Linux at that point, but I still lived with my parents and they paid for AOL for Internet, which (so far as I could tell at the time) had no Linux compatibility. Also, I gamed a lot and back then there was nothing like proton or even (so far as I knew) WINE.

I had to look up what Tumbleweed was after reading your post. I haven’t used any form of SUSE for years and years. I use mostly Fedora for my workstations or CentOS/Alma/Rocky for my servers because I was an RHCE for a while (now expired, I think) and was most comfortable in that ecosystem.

My kid has never touched Windows AFAIK; the only Windows system in my network is my wife’s work computer (and one VM I setup while experimenting with something, but that’s gone now). The kid has two tablets and a laptop I put Linux on, but they’re too young to really care about anything but YouTube on those systems. I’ll get 'em yet, though!

What got you on SUSE?

I was a sysadmin, now I’m nominally devops. I haven’t done real development for probably 21 years, so I didn’t interact with SO’s or DLL’s much. (I actually did know what DLL means, but I have no clue why. Thanks though!)

I didn’t use pure BSD until I was eighteen - I think I used Macs a time or two before then. In fact, I’m pretty sure the first time I used BSD was installing it on an iMac I bought off of Craigslist and I did so to experiment with its firewall functionality. What did you do with it as a kid?

I’ve been using Linux for longer than I’ve been an adult, I’ve worked in the field for around fifteen years, and TIL what .so means. Thanks!

I thought it was a Charlie horse and apple tree.

Fair enough. Thanks for the answer!

There are at least three of us!

Do you habitually not watch videos all the way through, or am I misunderstanding your comment?

No judgement, you obviously should consume media in the manner you find most enjoyable, but once I start and enjoy a video - YouTube or otherwise - I tend to get invested and want to watch as much as is available.

My pleasure!

That’s why I answered … Your question could have been sarcastic (as are many regarding superhero movies (especially Marvel ones)) or sincere.

If you were being sarcastic, no harm done as far as I could tell. If you were sincere, hopefully my answer helped. I genuinely hope that I gave you an answer were seeking.

I’m not judging you for not knowing. I’m pre-defending my comment. It probably says more about me than it does about you.

edit: Grammar.

In case the question is serious, the screenshot is from the movie Avengers: Infinity War.

What field?

Connect offers this as well.
