All the computers in my house are now running <a href="https://www.debian.org/">debian</a> except for the office PC. I've | ||
used Windows for at least 30 years but over the last few years it's become more and more user hostile. After the latest | ||
<a href="https://github.com/xaitax/TotalRecall">Windows Recall</a> push and the security implications surrounding it, I decided I could no longer | ||
keep running Windows on all the machines in my house.</p> | ||

||
<p>Fox my linux distribution I went with <a href="https://www.debian.org/">debian</a> because I want my machines to just work™. I don't really know | ||
what to think about <a href="https://ubuntu.com/">Ubuntu</a> and their snap packages and while I tried <a href="https://fedoraproject.org/">fedora</a> and was initially | ||
impressed, I found that a few things subtley didn't work. <a href="https://www.debian.org/">debian</a> seems to be super stable with packages in <code>apt</code> and for | ||
anything where I need the latest and greatest I just install it by hand or build it from source. It's a boring distribution but I see that | ||
as a good thing.</p> | ||
<p>I even installed it on my gaming PC and now have a console like experience up and running on it. I only enabled the "non-free" repos in | ||
<a href="https://www.debian.org/">debian</a> and everything seems to work well enough even though I have an nVidia graphics card in it. I think only | ||
the open source nVidia driver is installed and not the proprietary one from nVidia but so far I haven't noticed any major problems. I found | ||
one game that wouldn't work from my Steam collection so far but that's it.</p> | ||
