    I was not denied for DRP!!! (Deferred resignation program) Just need supervisor to sign paperwork and I can finally start planning to GTFO. Lack of degree is probably gonna bite me in the ass hard for this but id rather have a chunk of ass ripped off than continue life as is.

    Will finally have time to work on my self too. No more eating out just to not be in the office for a bit (and no more budgeting for that): actual controlled diet and exercise!! Forming habits for a healthy life during the first real break of my life, not living with my parents!

    Studying to skill up! Linux! Self hosting! Basic networking knowledge I severely neglected learning!

      Yay! That’s great news〜

      I bet there are a lot of Linux folks around here who can help if you get stuck, too.

        I don’t doubt it! Lemmy in general leans more tech than Reddit did IMO.

        I’ve dabbled a bit as a general purpose user device (gaming, browser, etc) but need to delve into the CLI side of things and learn the language(?). Ive got at least two desktops (in varying states of “built”) for guinea pigs too.

        Fedora + KDE is very user friendly in my books, much more so than windows has ever been. Super easy gui installer, even makes full disk encryption with LUKS easy!

        Plus my GPU is now AMD instead of nvidia so i wanna go back to linux gaming
