The new Linux Mint Debian Edition 6 (LMDE 6) is awesome.

Summary

I do things a little weird. I have separated out different things I do into separate VirtualBox virtual machines. This allows me to customize the OS for the need and to keep a higher level of security. It also means I should be able to restore a vm to another computer if the laptop fails and the important stuff is just the same in the VM. So my laptop runs the windows 11 that came on it and VirtualBox. That is basically it. All my files and work is then done in virtual machines OS's. By adding the VirtualBox extensions (agent) to the vm OS, it provides and quite pleasant experience for me.

Working Notes

  • What does this signal mean inside LOGOS?
  • Is this best understood as raw intake, refined knowledge, or doctrine?
  • Which later canonical or derived flows should this connect to?
