The new Xubuntu LTS (Long Term Support) release 16.04 comes out today. I was all fired up about it because of what I wrote yesterday–I have a brand new computer waiting to be used. It came as a Windows box and will be my first computer (as a professional anyway) that I will have set up as a pure Linux computer. No dual boot required. So the problem is, and I should have known this, that when they said today was the release date, they did not mean at the stroke of midnight. So, I get to wait until, at the earliest, 2100 UTC which is 4 PM my time before I can even start downloading it. The servers will probably be getting hammered, so the download will be slow which means I probably won’t get to start on this thing until tomorrow morning. So instead of having some fun for a day, I get to just write code, which is not so bad either, but I do that every day.
