I'm a certifiable distro hopper lol. But currently am on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Beta 2. Have played with all the major ones before though [slackware, Debian, Fedora, OpenSUSE] and all their branch offs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lomk 20,663 April 13, 2014 Share April 13, 2014 I ran Ubuntu 13.10 for a while until I officially retired my old laptop. For a free operating system, Linux is hard to beat! I just had to stick with Windows on everything else since Linux doesn't support MS Office and many of the games I have in Steam. And I've tried Wine before. I'd just rather these things run in Ubuntu natively lol I kinda miss using Ubuntu. It really was a learning experience and a hell of a lot easier to use than Mac. 1 I refuse to let go until you're impressed. I refuse to let go until I'm depressed.

In time things will change more towards Linux gaming. Steam is actively pushing that frontier with their Steam Linux client and I also now hear gog.com is starting their official support of Linux gaming [nothing released yet but actively working on it]. Also World of Warcraft is an example of a company who doesn't want to embrace Linux all the way but tries to make it a tad easier to get running on it. Between Blizzard cleaning up some of their messed up OpelGL issues and Wine advancing leaps and bounds it works purdy darn the same as it does in Windows for me now. I'm not a real heavy user of office outside of work and so I have LibreOffice on my computer here that runs linux. It does what I need it to do but I'm betting you use office for more advanced tasks? Worse comes to worse you would always set up a dual-boot on your computer. I had that for the longest time until this last year I upgraded hardware and Windows decided it didn't recognize me as a legit user anymore. So now it's Linux alone all the way.

Might just get a USB 3.0 hard drive should I decide to go back to Ubuntu since Ubuntu can run from one. I use MS Office since I'm a business major and knowing the ins and outs of Office are very helpful in business (although I should probably practice with QuickBooks some before I get into my career) I'd love to see MS Office and a lot of Steam games running on Linux distros before long. Especially if Steam can get most of their games running on them. I feel like that would get a lot of people to move to PC for gaming since Windows can set you back another $120 or if you want the pro version it's $200. I got Windows 8 Pro for $15 and a second license for only $40 right when they released the OS so I saved, like $345 in doing that. But still...I don't believe an operating system should cost $200. The hardware for a PC is expensive enough as it is and PC gamers like me want the PC gaming community to grow. I think Linux distros are the key to doing that 1 I refuse to let go until you're impressed. I refuse to let go until I'm depressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celtore 2,770 April 13, 2014 Share April 13, 2014 (edited) Hehe, I would have given her a gentoo sticker too. That's a pretty awesome find, as is that picture of Derpy! Always pictured her being a Mint user myself though, one of the simpler distros... or perhaps a version of Linux from Scratch she somehow managed to get working.

sonicdude558 27 April 13, 2014 Share April 13, 2014 Twilight using Linux? That reminds me of Twili Linux. A canceled linux distro. The maker of it dropped the project for unknown reasons. Now all its good for is a good replacement logo in the ubuntu os. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creamy Arty 6,252 April 13, 2014 Share April 13, 2014 Am I surprised? No, not really. I've always suspected Twilight would be a Linux user. As for myself, I'm comfortable with any Debian-based distro. Right now I'm using Kubuntu, as KDE is my favorite desktop environment at the moment. 2 Kyoshi made this ^^ Come join us on Equestria.tv on Fridays at 6 PM Eastern for our weekly movie nights!

Love all the easy to use options everywhere on the thing. I'm making myself use Unity in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Beta 2 for awhile to see if I can get used to it or if it continues to annoy me like has in the past. An experiment you could say 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
