He's hit his stride. And the content is really good, if a bit longer winded than I'd like.

As a Kiwi, I always find his accent just a little jarring - too close to sound like normal internet, too far to sound like everyone I know IRL.

But he is getting much better at delivering content.

He's a kiwi? A had no idea. Mainly because I can understand him (English isn't my first language and your accent is bloody hard).

[-] BlueEther@no.lastname.nz 9 points 8 months ago

He is an Aussie I believe.

(I'm the kiwi ;))

I am starting to able to tell the accents apart, but just barely. So... 🤷‍♂️

Can you tell a Canadian apart from a northern American?

Basically the same amount of difference. (There is one)

[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 2 points 8 months ago

Sometimes yes, often not. But I can tell apart Brits, Oceanian, American, African and Indian most of the time. I have a hard time telling apart Scots and Irish, mainly because I can't understand a thing they say at all.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
