Ronja<p>(6/X) Migration update: Moving from Windows to Linux!<br>After 4 intense days, I’m pausing the move as I’ve run out of time. The biggest hurdle is migrating my research data.

@wolf480pl So yeah, I think that everything has compromises to some extent.

  • I'm shure #OpenBSD could even up their #security if they were willing to break #POSIX and #compatibility in general for their distro, but that'll only introduce more headaches and pain along the way.

I chose #Linux as basis for @OS1337 because it solves the #driver problem for me and I know it. I'm just complete shit with #NetBSD which may arguably be the better option targeting low-end systems, but that'll again result in more pain and frustration getting other #apps ported over when I can't just say: "Target linux-#i486 and statically compile in all your dependencies" to any 3rd party as starting point.
