Quotes
  • "Zao were quite literally one of the first few heavy bands to truly break out of the Christian underground scene and gain the attention and admiration of secular audiences... From their humbly loose hardcore beginnings to their overpowering metal meets death grind days, all the way to their progressive almost Neurosis like moments, the group have never been afraid to push themselves and 'Legendary' isn't afraid to show it... A fitting tribute to one of the underground's greats." — ThePRP.com
gollark: Void is quite a cool distro. I use it on one server. It lacks systemd and I think has musl options.
gollark: Never mind, I did things and the disk is fine, the adapter was just being broken and works if I disable UASP.
gollark: It's very janky. I don't think I have actual spare disk caddies, so it's just plugged in on a spare USB to SATA adapter.
gollark: Fortunately, this is only my *backup* disk.
gollark: No, it's just not mounting and I'm getting tons of errors in dmesg.
