o/ Greetings everyone! I stumbled across this forum, thankfully, and decided to sign up. I'm impressed with the open, community-oriented attitudes here and the helpful dispositions I've been seeing in every post.

I've been dabbling in Linux for a couple of years now, mainly Mint and a couple other *buntu types. I'm on the verge of switching my desktop over to Linux, still trying to figure out what distro to use. Maybe Kubuntu (since Ubuntu types are pretty stable and KDE is a nice DE), maybe Ubuntu Maté (which is on my laptop now), considering Manjaro. Still not sure, I mostly just game on my home computer so stability is the key.

In real life, I'm interested in technology (mostly computer hardware), physical fitness (when I have time), being outdoors when I can, reading (mostly sci-fi and fantasy / fiction, some history), travel, and gardening. I'm a statistical programmer with a Master's in Applied Statistics and I wish more than anything in the world my job used Linux. :D
