Late reply, but I suppose you’re correct; I think the option to choose what to install, the lack of pre-created desktop stuff (“home/$username/Videos” for example) and the requirement that you handle software that isn’t in the base install all make a Slackware installation less bloated than most. Maybe not at install time, but over the life of the install you end up with less garbage IMHO.
I second Zoneminder, used it at a job way back in the day and it was solid.
If you hate bloat you like Slackware. It doesn’t assume anything about how you want to use your computer, so it’s more painful for a lot of folks. Other distros will try to do things for you and will ultimately end up doing something someone doesn’t want. With Slackware you learn a lot and you get a rock-solid system that will do whatever you like, but you have to be willing to manage it.
I’ll look into that, thanks!
I just don’t want to be a windows systems engineer anymore, and I’m having trouble getting interviews for linux administration roles.
For sure, my company is willing to pay for it, I wouldn’t be paying for it myself.
I just don’t want to work with windows anymore, and every job I get is windows centric; therefore I get a small amount of linux experience on my resume and the cycle continues. I’m contemplating getting the RHCSA and the RHCSE in order to get linux-centric roles (because although I’m down to take a cut in pay and settle for a junior position, most of the jobs available seem to be for senior or mid-level positions).
That’s an odd way of pronouncing sudo telinit 0
SLACKWARE!!!
This is very close to my workplace but we have about 17 domains to work across, with a separate account for each. It’s frustrating sometimes, but in the end I get paid the same either way.
I use wger at home and it’s waaaay overkill. Designed for the gym part, probably not the whole package

Eastbound and Down mixed with Darkest Dungeon. Danny McBride drags his entourage through the ambomination-filled Catacombs of his family’s abandoned estate. Actually all the bad traits you can get when resolve is tested are like his main traits, except maybe masochism.

Lol, no one remembers ISO 8601 when they’re drunk.
SLAAAAAAACKWAAAAARE!!! Slackware is good.
Debian is a nice second.
Oh HELLS yes, this was the superior reddit app
Jellyfin + Finamp has been pretty good for me.
