I keep a ventoy USB in my backpack at all times.
Currently I have mint popos endeavour cachy bazzite fedora opensuse. I'm thinking of adding a few more. Maybe add nixOS and Debian to the mix.
And a pack of condoms ?
What, for people to wear on their fingers to keep oil off or something?
Or maybe just put Arch in that Ventoy USB. (Yeah, yeah, I use Arch, btw.)
HeliumOS, Kubuntu, Linux Mint (standard and Debian Edition), Pop!_OS, Ubuntu, VanillaOS, and Zorin OS here. Helium and Vanilla are not necessarily beginner-friendly but I use them in specific places.
Hehe same, I usually have an Ubuntu USB on me
