When I was 16, I tried Ubuntu for fun and it was neat, but I didn't really get it. For some reason I really want to try Linux again. This next month (or more) I am going to give it ago. Does anyone have any tips or resources? I am going with Linux Mint.

Thinking of installing a fresh copy of Linux? I highly recommend looking into btrfs.

I switched to btrfs for the built-in snapshots (ie. built-in backup system) alone, but btrfs does have more benefits over the standard ext4:

* Snapshots
* File deduplication
* Copy-on-write (when writing to disk, btrfs makes a copy then writes. Prevents data loss if the disk is corrupt or due to power loss)
* etc...

To avoid using your HDD or SSD, you can use RAM disk. On a #Debian system those 2 are ready to use:
/run/user/your-user-id (other users don't have access)
/dev/shm (this is a system-wide user writable RAM disk, all users have access)

Using zram is also a possibility, with a custom mount point.

Why Use EasyBCD When You Have GRUB

When you set up a dual-boot system, one of the most common hurdles is managing the boot process — specifically, selecting which operating system to boot into. This is where GRUB (Grand Unified Bootloader) steps in. If you’ve ever faced the hassle of relying on third-party tools like EasyBCD to change between operating systems, GRUB is the solution. In this article, we’ll explore how GRUB works, how it simplifies dual-booting, and some of its more advanced features that can enhance your experience.

How To Connect Between Two Linux Machines

Securely connecting two computers using SSH is fairly simple and powerful. But if you are new to the world of computers, especially GNU/Linux, it could be a bit tricky to get around some basic stuff. In this tutorial, I’m going to teach you the step-by-step process to communicate between two computers using SSH. Basics The idea is pretty simple. There are two Linux computers; let’s call them A and B. To access computer A from B (connecting to A using B’s machine), we need to place B’s public key inside A.

Tengo esto un poquito abandonado pero la verdad es que estoy teniendo mucho más trabajo del que pensaba y se me ha complicado un poco la cosa.
