07:59 Techrights-sec; 1. tests worked OK, first try a success afaik, but worth keeping an eye in case I broke something
07:59 Techrights-sec; 2. sisters both in vegas now, turns out they are linux users. I did not even know.
07:59 Techrights-sec; (I did introduce them to it ages ago)
08:06 Techrights-sec; Exellent news. Which distros do they have at home and at work?
08:07 schestowitz-TR; debian 10 kde, same as rianne and I
08:08 Techrights-sec; Nice. Devuan is one better but only in the matter of systemd otherwise it
08:08 Techrights-sec; is a drop-in replacement. How much do any of you customized KDE?
08:08 schestowitz-TR; as you can imagine, rianne does not tinker with it as much as I do. Should I make more KDE videos? Seems a tad OT for TR
08:09 schestowitz-TR; side story: I put mint on her PC about 11 years ago and she did dual-boot for a while, I even used that computer as a backup of my own, but eventually she did not keep it
08:10 Techrights-sec; A bit OT but occasional mentions can be made now and then when it is relevant
08:10 Techrights-sec; to the topic (or subtopic)
08:12 Techrights-sec; Linux Mint is a good intro distro, the UI is basically the same though: XFCE4,
08:12 Techrights-sec; Cinnamon, MATE, KDE, etc.
08:13 Techrights-sec; KDE seems a bit slow but XFCE4 seems ok and is highly customizable.
08:14 schestowitz-TR; on modern h/w the kde or plasma5 drag is negligible

Some werent so sure, arguing that people shouldnt
