2018 is, after all, the year of the Linux desktop.

I was surprised to find that Ubuntu 16.04 worked better on my Thinkpad T450s than the stock Windows 10 install (which came with a lot of crapware). I had sound stutters and mult-monitor issues on Windows, and everything worked out of the box on Ubuntu.

  echo $(($(date +%Y)+1)) is the year of the Linux desktop.
Let's go all the way, shall we?

To be fair, 200X was the Year of the Linux Desktop for us Linux users.

The first rule of Windows is you wipe whatever the OEM has on it as soon as you pull it out of the box, and put a clean OS install on it.
