This is for Azure. They care about it more than Windows these days.

These days, you also have the options of Flatpaks and Distrobox. Do not nearly as big a problem as previously. No need to build from source.

I mean, for most things, why even rely on EPEL when you can install something like Arch in Distrobox. A super stable base with totally up to date apps is a great combination.

I know pretty much everyone knows this but distros like Alma and Rocky give you a pretty much identical experience to RHEL for free.

And RHEL itself is free for individuals.

The biggest difference between Fedora and RHEL is that the packages in Fedora change far more frequently, are much more up to date, and are supported for a far shorter period of time.

Even more than Busybox, Alpine uses MUSL. So, not very GNU at all.

The US does not use what you call a CV. A resume is something else. For one thing, there is typically no “profile”.

A resume may not even show a complete work history. It is one ( maybe two ) pages and heavily tailored to what makes sense for the particular job. That is what this post is about.

Like Kavanah?

Much more stable but much, much older packages at some point. Can you tolerate that?

It is a lot easier these days as Distrobox and Flatpak offer great escape hatches to get newer software when you really need it.

Some of us fiddle with the base OS more than we should. In many ways, I think using something that changes less often is a great idea.

One great thing about RHEL is the documentation. First Red Hat themselves make great stuff. Then there are mountains of third-party materials. Finally, since it changes slowly, whatever issues you are facing have probably been seen before by others and what you find about it on the Internet will still apply.

So many factors.

Sellers may have sat on the sidelines when rates went up and sales went down. As inventory climbs, pressure grows and prices come down. Declining prices can scare sellers who come off the sidelines before prices come down further. Rates and prices coming down brings back buyers which drives up prices. Which forces dominate in any given month? For how long? No easy answers in advance.

Historically, that is not always true and very market dependent.

If you do try Haiku, use Falkon as the web browser. You will have a much better experience than the other Haiku browser options.

If you are a low-end Linux enthusiast, I would also recommend the Trinity desktop. Just as MATE is a continuation of GNOME 2, Trinity is a modern version of KDE 3. I was quite surprised how light and functional it is.

If you want to give it a shot in a VM, the Q4OS distro includes it as a default DE option. If you really want to be impressed what can be done with little RAM, try the 32 bit version of Q4OS.

What do you think of Thunar? I know it is part of XFCE but I think it would fit in well on MATE.
