Wow. Such mono, very culture. Part of the joy of distros is being able to put up with all of them at once. Anthologica runs SUSE, CM.net runs Arch, and my work machines are (mostly) Ubuntu... Except for SciNet, which is CentOS. Out of all the systems I've used at worked with, I think SLES (Enterprise SUSE) is the only truly awful one; their repos aren't quite complete enough to accomplish arbitrary tasks.

Nort's scared me away from Arch for life most likely. I really haven't looked into SUSE for…3-4 years now, from when I first switched to Linux all but full-time. And I don't switch often because it's such a fight to relearn how everything happens; I am extremely dependent on habit and knowing what to expect ahead of time in order to handle things. I know this is a bad thing, but I've only ever been able to break it while being extremely on the move, ie trips…if I'm somewhere for longer than a week, it takes back over.

That got a bit meta, but it's still applicable I think.

Arch is the best Linux distro I've used, except for the part where the devs intentionally break things to purge their userbase. Also there's no install script anymore.

I'm on Ubuntu now and I fucking hate it.
