From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hour after I come to this, I'm loving it. She modified it so it retains original kde look but has enough tiny details to keep it interesting. She says she'll resume the work tomorrow 🫡

Hours later she was still at it, hairs scattered, baffled looking... saying how could someone live with so many choices lol.

Oh man I relate to this so hard hahaha...

Do everything you can to try to preserve those settings, because you will need to do a clean install at some point (well maybe not, I'm sure it depends on your distro), and you're gonna lose all of it.
