Only linux I have dabbled with was installing Hass.io (I guess now called Home Assistant) and installing the ISO into a repurposed i3 NUC.
I have acquired yet another NUC. Has Windows 10 Pro, 250GB KingFast (never heard of them) SATA drive, bluetooth, wifi, i5-4590 CPU with 8 GB RAM.
I am not exactly sure what the full purpose of this box will be just yet. But I do know I want to relocate Windows Deepstack AI off the Blue Iris machine and learn various linux based programs that seem interesting (proxmox VM's, pi-hole, networking tools, learning dockers and such).
I guess the standard issue is to run latest greatest Ubuntu LTS. But then, many say to take a look at Mint. Then, others say it all depends on what you want to do (which I do not know just yet).
Would it be best to say...Ubuntu Server LTS bascially covers all bases?
Any reason to keep Windows on this thing in a dual-booting setup?
