<p>After two years of using my company-issued MacBook for personal things, I'm setting up a personal laptop for personal things, which I hope to be able to do more of during lockdown.</p> <p>Now faced with the choice of distro, I noticed I've never been very deliberate with this. My personal history:</p> <ul> <li>2004-5: Knoppix. Needed a live CD because my family (who were co-users of the home computer) wouldn't let me remove Windows. With 20GB HDD, I couldn't keep both</li> <li>2006-8: Slackware. I had enough time on my hands to do manual package management</li> <li>2009-13: Arch. I didn't want things abstracted away from me because I wanted to learn how Linux worked (but <code>pacman</code> is a time saver)</li> <li>2013-4: Ubuntu (mandatory at company-issued laptop)</li> <li>2015-8: Fedora (<code>dnf</code> seemed like a good package manager, and I wanted things abstracted away from me)</li> </ul> <p>I'm curious what other crustaceans use and care about. How relevant are these things these days, now that so much of the software we run is on the browser anyway?</p>

<p>This is an experimental python package that translates Python's help() text to any language using Google Translate!</p> <p>Learning Python shouldn't require fluency in English, and the help() function is the most language-intensive part of the early programming language learning experience. Plus, Python 3 fully supports Unicode, so why not?</p>
