 If I need a *nix box for somethihg my default distro is the Mint Debian build, have a work VM running that and it's also on a mini-PC at home. Big fan of oh my zsh as well lol, the git related info is awesome when you do a lot of repository work :buddy:

I'm a bit sad there isn't a bigger availability to run some straight tux on phone. I'd love to take some old phones and set up ParrotSec and set them around the place to run Wifite and gather. Thought about getting a Pi Zero and putting a weatherproof case on it with a solar charger and set it somewhere just to run a honeypot off a fake wifi that's open, spoof a bunch of main sights and let people dump passwords into it. No reason other than to email them and tell them to stay off open wifi.

Is there nothing on https://forum.xda-developers.com/ that takes your fancy for those devices? I seem to recall at least one person trying to shoehorn Ubuntu onto an older phone a few years back, and some of the custom ROMs may be going in a direction you like the sound of

I liked having Linux despite the odd little quirks that bothered me a tiny bit. Such as how no distro I've used or even played around with can have Bluetooth stay turned off after you reboot. Or that eventually all Linux machines crash permanently and you have to reinstall the whole OS.

Now what prevents me from going back is that I have a nice notebook and it has a Windows key. How can I use Linux if the key is there?

It's easy it is there to remind you why you switched lol

Also most distros use it as the menu key so it even works the same :v:
