From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I strolled in here cracking my knuckles, ready to bestow upon you all my experience as a sommelier, only to be disappointed.
If you would like a good wine pairing for “disappointment and frustration,” let me know.
What wine would go well with *new user learning linux, learning terminal commands, guides have different answers, not sure what to do, anxiety is creeping in *
For that, I’d recommend a rich, full-bodied red wine like a Cabernet Sauvignon. Its bold flavors can help distract and provide a comforting contrast to those emotions. Plus, a good wine can turn any mood around.
Please tell me cheap good wines, we can't afford much in this economy after all
How much would you like to spend on a bottle?
Up to 100$
Oh, I thought you were going to say like under $10.
if $100 is cheap for you… you should probably hire someone to come in and supply your wine cellar with a good selection. There are also many apps you can use to catalog this selection and use it to get food pairings.
Nah man, real wine is luxury and one hundred a month is cheap, people use that much on subscription services like spotify, hbo and such, i can use this money on a bottle instead, if you can offer something under 10 that will rival my mixing skills, i would be very glad and happy, truly, i mean, it's good to have good wine regularly and not just one bottle per month
If your pallet is $100, I can offer you very little at $10 that will excite you. Maybe… $50 could satisfy. Most of what I would recommend is for the layman. I assume anyone willing to drop cash knows what they’re buying and why, not just to spend money.
That said, the best wine I’ve ever had was $300 for the bottle, retail. It was truly an experience. Not every wine is worth the price, but the higher up you go the harder it is for a shitty wine to pop up.
What do you recommend on the rosé front?
I think if you want a rosé, the safe bet is Whispering Angel. It’s priced around $20 depending on where you get it from. Always serve it chilled. It’s a great summer wine for that reason. Serve it with your grilled seafood and vegetables. It will also go well with a light pasta sauce like pesto or lemon garlic. I like it with most any soft cheese, with some fruit, to complement the floral flavors. While you can have nuts, it is not really in that perfect flavor zone.
I love white and rose wine. I generally get this wine: https://sulavineyards.com/source/the-source-grenache-rose-wine.php
Would you recommend something that would , in your experience, be as awesome as the one above?
