- | Most of the guides may be written as if it was only for Debian but if this is the case, the instructions should also work on Ubuntu. If they do not, the instructions will mention Ubuntu specific differences to achieve the same task somewhere in the instructions. If you find some issue just let someone know so we can test and figure out why its not working and update appropriately. If you need some guide that doesn' | + | I have also ensured when things did not work, instead of going and changing the instructions so you don't see what happened, I have instead corrected issues and problems so that you can fully see how to repair borked systems when need be. This should help you to troubleshoot better if in a situation where things break and need repair. The guide is for learning and its good to know how to fix things that are broken. |

That's dull and everyone does that. Your learning path is too slow to do things that way. We need to be challenged now! We want to live on the edge and figure out how to have a beautiful experience on testing and get more up to date stuff!

- | With this in mind we install either Ubuntu+1 (maybe rhino linux if you want that) or Debian testing (once you are comfortable you can move to Debian Sid if you like, however testing is still very up to date so it works well for learning and also doesnt have unstable phases like when perl is updated and sid is unusable for like 2 weeks) in this guide, and in addition it has ideas for other things to try out. I have also ensured when things did not work, instead of going and changing the instructions so you don't see what happened, I have instead corrected issues and problems so that you can fully see how to repair borked systems when need be.
