I luckily remembered this link from a resource i stumbled across. There is a website called
It has several periferals and devices supported by linux that they sell.

Its still going strong.
Though there are a lot more tools.
Still sysinit system and as reliable as ever on its stability.
New things are stuff such as -sbopkg(can deploy slackbuilds a lot faster as it will sync, custom the slackbuilds scripts if you want, build and install applications[though you still have to install depenencies in there proper order])
- Sboui gui style package management tool that will work with sbopkg and take care of the dependecy resolution for the applications you want to install(includes previous mentioned details of sbopkg)
I can say even on me when i was new to using it, slackware is forgiving if you make mistakes.
Alien bob still making modern packages to use as an alternative package resource if you want stuff like vlc, libreoffice and such that do not come with the default package resource.
Lol i cracked up when i saw that too. Slackware user myself. Though i do dabble in mint, arch, artix and netbsd
Lol I have been guillty of this when i first jumped over. The only answer was to VM and thats still not the solution for every application
Sorry for late reply
For about 4 hours i beleive. Though it used to be longer as i have had it for over a year and the battery not like it used to be.
Kde is the default desktop eviornment.
It helps that its a non systemd init system so it doesnt pull as much resources on the backend since systemwide is controlled via scripts.
If i were to run a lighter one such as xfce, qtile or dwm it would run longer(varies on configuration though)
As someone who runs VMs, i suggest you dont. Ivd been doing it for about 2 years and i still have moments where lets say i want to expand my storage and a bork it, or accidently removed a virt selection on virt manager by mistake.
An easy solution. Run conty.

It creates a virtualized arch linux with all the needs for gaming without having you worry about the heavy stuff. All the list of programs already on the list including other launchers for other games.
Here is a video explaining it.
Windows -> macos -> pop os -> debian -> fedora ↓ Now
- linux mint(desktop)
- slackware(laptop)
- arch linux(Kvm/Qemu for gaming)
- Netbsd(older hardware/for fun)
It does also have third party repos such as sbopkg. This does a bunch of the movement for you when installing packages though you still need to manually install dependencies, BUT If you also add sboui which is a front end package resolution for dependencies then the process is much faster. I like the stability of Slackware, and also because its helps me get better for when I try the BSD since its very much like them as well.
