  • Debian, Ubuntu and Fedora should be good (in that order); I’m not very aware on truenas to give an opinion, but it seems it will work just as well from other comments.

    I personally use Fedora, and it’s been a solid experience too, with the only gripe bring SELinux. I required a fix for SELinux, but it has worked flawlessly since.

    However SELinux might make it annoying to work with containers, so you could consider either switching it off, using another distro or using appropriate configurations to work with it correctly.



  • Photography - added benefit is that you will usually go out for this

    Music - an instrument is good

    Drawing/Painting

    Programming (hit or miss, I found learning unity was fun)

    Video making - recording video games playthroughs, cooking, and so on.

    Finally, one that usually everyone probably also may mention - Therapy - not a hobby but having to be able to talk about it is often good

    This is of course not an exhaustive list - but it depends on what your interests are. Hope this is a good pointer to what you’re looking for.



  • A regular ethernet cable is sufficient in most cases. Except for ancient network cards, most newer ones know to flip the wiring to be able to communicate between two computers.

    The only thing is that you need to set the network options manually in both computers - set the IP address and subnet. Then just transfer it using any network file sharing protocol. (Windows already has file sharing, Linux you can use sftp, or use a http server)

    Edit: Looks like you asked specifically for USB. Sadly that is not possible specifically with usb since both devices are “hosts”. I provided this solution since ethernet cable are also very common and cheap to use
