A Year in the Life of Slackware64-15.0
Posted on Jan 22, 2023 by kingbeowulf
Slackware 15.0 has been out in the wild for nigh on a year now. So far I am quite pleased. Modern and versatile for my varied requirements. I won't do a review here; that you can get elsewhere. For me, Slackware for many years has been my daily driver at home for general purpose office computing, simple image and video editing, internet access and video games. I was recently laid up at home on medical leave after surgery. Between Steam (native and Proton), WINE and DOSBOX, I made a bit of a dent in my Linux, Windows, and old MSDOS game collections. One Slackware box is dedicated to host my Gopher, Mumble, local LAN time servers, as well as my Valheim dedicated game server. It was also my backup NAS until I added added a separate Synology DS220+.
(Aside: If you haven't played Valheim, you are missing out on a great Adventure. Fun solo, but best with friends!)
