Sorry, I'll shit more in the future.

I still love Window Maker.

Users of Arch-based distros, do you need help with Gentoo? I won't tell, I promise!

Window Maker is still better.

I have, indeed, eaten a few pickles before posting this.

Still hungry though.

FAQ:

Why? I wanted to try a Cock ale and nobody made one for me.

How does it taste? Chicken, plums and cloves.

Are you insane? Yep.

Liebevoll auch die Excel-Enten genannt.

Also, no, you should probably not try to alchemically resurrect his late wife.

OpenBSD, (unlike Linux) not being copyrighted by a foundation under U.S. law, begs to differ. Fuck the upcoming California law, I say.

U.S. laws just shouldn't be for everyone.

Everyone knows it's win32/Linux.

2027 will be the year of the Plan 9 desktop!

I think the problem here generally stems from the view that a system which is explicitly not Windows should be suitable for "Windows refugees". (Haiku would come to mind sooner than Linux, but I don't want to open that can of worms here.)

Mint isn't "like Windows", not even Zorin is "like Windows". No operating system (except perhaps ReactOS) that isn't Windows aims to provide a good sanctuary for "Windows refugees". The expectation that a Linux distribution must be "suitable for Windows users" will lead to many more disappointments.

Bill Joy (google him if necessary) once said (quite rightly):

What was the goal of the Linux community--to replace Windows? One can imagine higher aspirations.

Take Linux for what it wants to be (a free implementation of parts of V7 UNIX for reasonably modern systems), and you'll immediately be less disappointed.

(Disclosure: As far as Linux is concerned, I currently only use Gentoo myself—not because it's great for Windows users, but because it's a great Linux distribution.)

It is surprisingly decent, and you can control quite a lot of the taste by using a good amount of a sherry you like.

should the meat be thawed and cooked first?

You'll get the best taste (and quality) by cooking the meat as a whole without any additional broth (mine was cooked with some cabbage, so much of the fat was just dripping into that day's dinner), then skinning it (you won't want more fat than absolutely necessary in your beer).

Finally, does anyone have any tips for distro-hopping?

Don't. 🙂

Or rather, try as many distributions as you want, but use virtual machines for that - once you find one that Just Works, there's no reason to "hop" anymore.

That’s why you are advised to eat 15-20 pickles instead of one pickle.

Das zweitbeste Windows, das ich jemals nutzen durfte. Gleich hinter Me, äh, 3.11.

New wave of OpenBSD users incoming. Good.
