Who here uses Linux Mint or any other Ubuntu based OS? I think I'm going to make the switch. For whatever reason, after downloading Windows 10 on my laptop, the start menu will not work. I have tried every "fix" I could find on the net, but nothing works. I have since factory rest my pc and went back to Windows 8, which everyone knows is awful.

How is Ubuntu? Any major issues? Easy to install?

I used kubuntu for a while but it didn't play very nice with some hardware I had that I could never quite figure out. The only challenge is figuring out how to do certain things from the console, but the Google helps immensely.

Currently run Ubuntu on a dual boot system. If it wasn't for a couple of proprietary windows programs I might would just run it exclusively. Smooth performing for me, no major driver issues and seems to run just fine. Plenty to choose from using the software center. No complaints here.

I have multiple flavors of Unix OSes running.  At work, most of my time is on CentOS servers since my programs are Linux based due to the resources they need.  I have a triple boot (via hot swaps) at home on my main workstation that runs BioLinux 8 (an Ubuntu flavor) for smaller processing tasks, CentOS on another,  and Windows10 on the other for games and random browsing.  Git/Github will be your friend.

      Dennis Cox and Chris Lea on performance today

      The offense can help them by getting a lead. I mean it was the Falcons but 0 points? That doesn’t happen in the NFL very often. I know the Falcons shot themselves in the foot multiple ways but the defense played a part in that 0.    The NFL these days, teams are a work in progress for at least the first half of the year. We should see improvement continue for a little while. Throw Luke into any defense it is improved but this one is just waiting for that guy. A guy that could be like, Luke light, Temu Luke,  would be a huge shot in the arm.

      Did the Panthers get Mike McDaniel fired now?

      so you all wouldn't have punted on a 4th and 17 when you had three timeouts and a chance to get the ball back?   Odds of making it on a 4th and 17 are very bad.  Odds of forcing a three and out are better.  And if their defense hadn't committed a penalty, they would likely have gotten the ball back.

      I only heard him talk a few years back when he got the job and he seemed kind of out there.
