My understanding is that it boots faster. That's a nice thing to have on a container that spins up on demand.

Unfortunately, they're not a great choice for out aircraft.

That's also a good thing - eating less milk and beef is also good for the environment. Less demand means fewer cows, means fewer cow farts...

I imagine so, buy have no first hand experience.

I am a long-time Tumbleweed user. It's the most stable rolling release distro I've tried, so if you want that latest software, it's a great choice. I've not tried MicroOS yet, so I can't comment on that.

Simple: I fucking hate driving. I hate the smell, I hate the noise, and I hate the stress. Thr environmental impact isnt exactly a plus point either. You could say that I'm lucky to live in a place with good public transport, but I actively sought out a place with public transport because I didn't want to rely on a car.

Final nail on the coffin: I developed Menieres disease, so I am prone to intense vertigo attacks at short notice - I couldn't get a license even if I wanted one.

Downloading music... I was discovering so many cool bands by downloading shitty quality mp3s!
