Late reply, but I suppose you’re correct; I think the option to choose what to install, the lack of pre-created desktop stuff (“home/$username/Videos” for example) and the requirement that you handle software that isn’t in the base install all make a Slackware installation less bloated than most. Maybe not at install time, but over the life of the install you end up with less garbage IMHO.
I work in IT, I make much more money than I should/need and I work from home in a pair of basketball shorts and a T-shirt while barefoot. I would just apply for everything, eventually you’re gonna hit someone who isn’t hung up on image, and the rest will make your interview skills just that much better.

I second Zoneminder, used it at a job way back in the day and it was solid.
If you hate bloat you like Slackware. It doesn’t assume anything about how you want to use your computer, so it’s more painful for a lot of folks. Other distros will try to do things for you and will ultimately end up doing something someone doesn’t want. With Slackware you learn a lot and you get a rock-solid system that will do whatever you like, but you have to be willing to manage it.
I’ll look into that, thanks!
I just don’t want to be a windows systems engineer anymore, and I’m having trouble getting interviews for linux administration roles.
For sure, my company is willing to pay for it, I wouldn’t be paying for it myself.
I just don’t want to work with windows anymore, and every job I get is windows centric; therefore I get a small amount of linux experience on my resume and the cycle continues. I’m contemplating getting the RHCSA and the RHCSE in order to get linux-centric roles (because although I’m down to take a cut in pay and settle for a junior position, most of the jobs available seem to be for senior or mid-level positions).

Damn, I didn’t realize he had passed.

SLACKWARE!!!
I completely agree - force users should be few and far between, but if you’re going to put a Jedi Master or Sith Lord onscreen they should be goddamn impressive. It would be something you became creative with while mastering, but all we see them do is hop around and shove stuff.
I think you can do a bunch with jedi/sith, but you have to use the force for something more interesting than pushing things and jumping pretty high. The extended universe novels had all sorts of cool shit force users could do with it. They should lean in to that kind of stuff.
This, except Slackware should be listed first as it’s the eldest
This is very close to my workplace but we have about 17 domains to work across, with a separate account for each. It’s frustrating sometimes, but in the end I get paid the same either way.
I use wger at home and it’s waaaay overkill. Designed for the gym part, probably not the whole package
My wirk history is ok; I have solid interview and writing skills, which is more important to most places I think. Mostly because I apply for a lot of things I’m not really qualified for or that pay too little just for the interviews.
