6 reasons why I've stuck with Ubuntu-based Linux distros for the last 20 years

zdnet.com Jack Wallen 2025-07-26 14:39:25

Jack Wallen / Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET It was October 2004, and I'd been using Red Hat Linux (way before it became Fedora) for years. I was fairly certain that would be my distribution until the world ended. I'd become comfortable with Red Hat. Sure, it had its quirks and was sometimes a bit more difficult than it needed to be (remember, it was over 20 years ago), but it was stable and I'd grown to know it well. But then a new distribution arrived on the scene... Ubuntu. Oddly enough, the

If you want to buy some of Capcom’s recent Resident Evil games (excluding the RE4 remake), you can get them for $6.50 a pop as part of Fanatical’s Capcom-themed bundle that runs through July 26th. You save a little extra per game when you add three or more titles to your cart. The bundle also contains some Ace Attorney collections and the remaster of Ghos

Last year, I asked a bunch of staff at The Verge to pretend to be trend forecasters for a lighthearted collection of what’s hot and what’s not. Some of the predictions really held up: many would say the US Supreme Court continues to be out, congestion pricing in New York is decidedly in despite attempts to kill it, and cats are, as ever, a bit of both.
