“People say that you can choose how fat or thin you are
simply by combining a proper diet with regular exercise. For some
reason it doesn’t work for me. No matter how many slices of pizza I
cut down on or how little beer I drink it doesn’t seem to make any
difference to my waistline. I do exercise too. I make it a special
task to walk as many times to the icebox as I can. So it seems that
I have no choice and it is a genetic thing that my body is the way
it is.“With Linux however, I do have a choice. It doesn’t matter what
distribution I use, I can configure my Linux installation to be as
fat or thin as I like. Even so called bloated distributions can be
made slim and trim. I just wish my belly could be 🙂 Not just the
bloated ones. The specialist thin distributions can quite easily
become just as fat as the rest of them.”
