  • It’s been a year (maybe two) since I last tried. I tried activating mine with my work account and got caught up on the Duo 2FA not working. When you activated yours, did you have to go through any 2FA prompts? If you did, do you remember what tricks (if any) you had to use to make it activate successfully?

    My heat was out and I needed a way to warm my apartment so installed Gentoo on my Dell XPS. /s

    That was around the time Windows 2000 was coming out and I couldn’t afford a copy. I’d been dabbling for a year or two before. That was my first and last dual boot computer. MythTV really sold me on linux.








  • Oof. I am pretty sure it was Mandrake in 97. I bounced around trying what was around before settling on Gentoo for a decade plus. Then both my laptop and desktop got too long in the tooth to make distcc even worthwhile and migrated to Arch. I figured it was the closest distro to Gentoo that I wouldn’t have too many problems. I don’t know howong it’s been now, but I’m an Arch fangirl. I’ve installed it many times since on work computers as well. For remote systems though, it’s always Debian stable.
