Oh hey, I remember that screen. I have seen it many times. Many, many times. Oh God, so many times.

[-] shootwhatsmyname@lemm.ee 22 points 7 months ago

So, just to clarify, you’ve seen it many times?

[-] poinck@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

It needed many reinstalls! So yes, many times, indeed.

Ironically, this one is better designed than their current one lmao.

I was genuinely about to say how the openSUSE installer looks incredibly similar to the Windows XP one

Everyone is nostalgic to XP so they decide to make part of a different operating system look very similar to it just for nostalgia sake

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.
