AlmaLinux OS
I’ve been away from #ubuntu for more than just a few years…What’s changed? What’s new? How’s it stack up against other distros these days? Looking for a guest to walk me through the modern Ubuntu story on The #ITGuyShow. Ping me if you’d love to dig in! #Linux #Podcast #opensource

I’m lining up episodes of The IT Guy Show covering X11 and Wayland — their quirks, legacy, and the future of the Linux desktop.

If you’ve worked with either (or both!), or just have strong real-world opinions on the state of display servers in Linux, I’d love to have you on.

Reach out or if you want, nominate someone awesome!

Deep into studying for the #LPIC1 exam for a new #linux certification!
Want to help the world understand X11? What it is, what it does, and why it’s fading from the #linux spotlight. I’m looking for a guest to unpack the legacy of X11 on The #ITGuyShow. DM or reply if you’re interested! #podcast #x11 #OpenSource #wayland
What does it mean when you get a fortune cookie with no fortune!
If you are a #dad out there dealing with #burnout or #layoff, I SEE YOU! I’ve been in your shoes. Hang in there. Keep fighting the good fight. Your family needs you, not your paycheck. You are not alone.
Doing some #TuxCare product education! #linux
