@pine64eu So painful, as a Brit who never wanted to leave the EU, to see this map with the UK deleted from it 😞
I was today years old when I learned that the "G" in "Gnu" (but not GNU...) is silent!
@oklomsy thank you! I feel so very welcome already!
@markontech thanks, it started as an intranet document for a small firm I worked for, so I think the fact it was written for an already somewhat tech audience helped to give it the balance of "here's a way in" without being too patronising.
Whatever it is - people have found it useful, and I'm happy for that
I'm one of the newcomers from Twitter (was on mastodon\.host a few years ago, but it seems to have disappeared)
Am a *nix geek really (hence the username), obviously now doing more cloud stuff to stay alive.
You may know me from www.shellscript.sh, or possibly from the more Bash-focussed "Shell Scripting: Expert Recipes" book which is, well, more aimed at book-buyers, as it happens....
Anyway, glad to be here on social.linux.pizza, hope to be a bit more active!
@StampedingLonghorn Thanks, might be a bit more active this time around! 🙂
Just rejoining Mastodon (was inactive on mastodon\.host previously) to join the Twitter diaspora. Not sure if I'll be any more active on here than I was before, but hey, it doesn't hurt to be here, right?!
