Been eyeballing it for awhile, seems inevitable at this stage. #SysAdmin

How long have you been using Linux?

Comment below 🐧

Dating myself a bit here, but Linux and I go all the way back to Debian (Woody) aka version 3.0 - I've used it on and off since then and there are still days where I feel like I'm still stumbling through man pages for that one parameter I forgot the syntax for.... =D

This is so true lololol - The worst is when you forget to pause updates prior to arriving and your OS starts patching mid-session.
