Hi Rocco,
Cheers to y’all for Destination Linux, BDLL and all your individual channels
In the latest DL episode, someone made a joke about running Linux on a C64. Here’s a picture that proves it can be done. And with Mint no less.. though after achieving this, as a result of severe sleep deprivation from not only the install – but the transfer from ISO to floppies as well – apologies, but I was too tired to neatly stack the 100,000+ 5.25 inch floppy disks I used for the install so I that could provide that photographic evidence as well 
I hope at best it gives you a laugh (or four)..
Otherwise I guess a chuckle, chortle or possibly even a mild smirk may suffice…

What I’ve been playing: Ballistic Overkill
This isn’t a new game. This is an old favorite. Amazing competitive FPS. I’ve gearing up to take on Wimpey for the ultimate battle. The manual won’t help you win this one Martin.
