My Ultimate Linux Recommendations

Puppy Linux is my favorite and I always carry at least two versions in 2 USB sticks.

My Vision for Linux is that before I kick the bucket it could reach 10% of the Desktop Use without any commercial push or any form of advertisement. 

Statistically speaking, I call the the Natural Growth (not natural log curve).

It has surpassed 5% already and given the current rate of growth it would reach 10% by 2030 long before Next Olympics, when I am ready to quit this Planet and go on to a another World System with 4 or 5 dimensions. 

I have no intention of going to the 13th dimension mathematically possible. 

My simple reason is going by the current brain size and 140 I. Q. that I may possess now, the brain has to expand to the size of an elephant to grasp 13 dimensions without the use of a computer or AI enhancement. 

I envision without more CSF and more cortical matter, I should be able to enter dimension 5 and that is far as I intend to go in my next life. 

I have no intention of reaching Buddha Level of computational power but if I could reach our dog who is now in heaven in my next life that is ample enough, for me.

With moderate increase in my brain size and power, all my needs and aspirations at the 5th dimension could be accomplished is  my simple belief.

I wish not have a computer or a LINUX desktop environment in my next life.

Let me start with the distributions one should AVOID.

1. ZORIN OS coming from Ireland.

It us a commercial organization and it contributes nothing to free software foundation.

It's governance is secret and opaque.

I never tried it.

2. UBUNTU 

This is again a commercial organization run by a dictator.

I gave it up long time ago and won't spend my time testing its latest releases which are at least 5 years behind in time in many areas.

SECURITY concern is only a catch phrase 

3. Sparky Linux

This comes from Poland and I have a suspicion that it is funded by CIA for covert activity.

Somewhat similarly to TENS or PLOP OS.

I suspected it from its Sparky Linux Game Over distribution

Never used it.

4. Manjaro Linux

I think Mosad of Israel uses it for its covert activities.

I leave it at that.

I do use it but it has problems in reading my partition table of 29 Partitions.

I have tested it extensively in the past and a relatively good distribution but it's UPDATES come after installation and not during Installation.

5. Linux Mint not Debian Mint

It uses proprietary code by default.

I have stopped using it.

I used it during 32 bit era but not since.

6. Upcoming KDE Linux

It uses FLATpak and has lot of security vulnerabilities.

It does not seem to have a proper "patch-up" strategy.

My Recommendations are

1. Debian GNOME

Absolutely no problem.

I have used it for over 30 years without a loss of a single file.

2. ARCH Linux

I am new to ARCH

CachyOS is fabulous and it tops the www.distrowatch.com, ranking.

BlueStar Linux with very beautiful KDE Desktop

Endeavor OS which is minimal but expandable.

3. MX Linux

It is based on Debian but SLOW to adopt upcoming changes.

It has its own applications which I rarely use. 

I used it in the past but it lacks the glamour in its Desktop appearance.

4. SuSe Linux

5. Fedora Linux

6. Consider GNOPPIX from Singapore

Both Free and with Subscription images.

7. Elive Linux

Unusual desktop effects

But I prefer using the Enlightenment Window Manager instead. 

8. REBORN OS

Versatile

What I HATE

Kali Linux

If you have SECURITY concerns use PARROT Linux.

Home Edition

Security Edition 

It is bit slow in UPDATES.

I just downloaded it but did not "Test Install", it yet.

My Connection to Buddha-Wauda Villi Hatpattuwa- KANDE VIHARA

Unedited

I started my schooling in a Girl's Junior School. 

I was probably a very bright guy for my age. I could work out the 52 cards of the card pack and even suggest moves in checkers (දාන් ලෑල්ල ) to my father even before, I entered the primary school. 

I was placed in the girls school probably to avoid my leading questions or to improve my learning habits. 

However, I was ashmed to be seated with girls and did not utter a single word in the class or write a single letter in the granite slate (ගල් ලෑල්ල). 

This was probably, reported to my father and one day he gave me a very difficult arithmetic exercise. I got all them wrong or I deliberately made wrong answers. I was thrashed with a bundle of ekel (පොල් කූරූ) wrapped with fine thread. 

I did not cry that made it worse. 

Ultimately, my mother saved me and liberal application of cured coconut oil with medicinal ingredients prevented any nasty infection. 

On that day, mentally, I decided to master mathematics and to overtake my father in all the fields, including science.

Science was planted in my mind, probably in my last birth. 

I did not know until 35 years of age (during 7 day Dhana following his funeral ), I was shown to a Vienna Specialist as a brat and he had told that do not interfere with thus guy. 

He is a bright cooky. 

From that day and in the proper junior high school and Ampitiya College, I always got 100 in arithmetics.

He did not have to teach me. 

Of course, he flooded the home with books. Very soon I was reading encyclopedia and adult books in English. 

But what changed me was Sputnik in space in early 1950s. 

That catered to my talent in physics. 

I have stated many a times I avoided mathematics simply because, if I did I would not have lot of friends as classmates but only Einstein to talk to or refer to.

That is not the subject matter, here.

I had an urge to visit this schools and especially KANDE VIHARA before coming to Australia.

I could not.

Thanks to Jayaratne Pathiraarchchi the reason being to divert my attention to Dhamma.

Currently, my one and only Teacher is Buddha.

I used to go to KANDE VIHARA on festival days to relish on various Appa, Pittu and String Hoppers. 

This was under a Hindu Pusari, then.

This is one of the places Lord Buddha has frequented.

NOW, I do not believe any longer that Buddha was born in India.

Buddha has left a trail of evidence and our forefathers have recorded them in SelLipi or on Stone Edits.

Literally thousands of them.
