Best way to organize configuration files

I generally like to run Linux on many machines, and often need to create VMs as well. I have a lot of conf files (e.g. .vimrc, .bash_aliases) that I've spent years tweaking. Right now I have them all on a Dropbox folder and just source them from the local config files. I feel like there has to be a more efficient way to do this. I've seen some people actually set up a git repo for these files. Any other suggestions?

Failing flash drives

Has anyone else had a large amount of flash drives fail? I have used dd, rufus, [etcher.io](https://etcher.io) and many more but still find that after flashing a few different distros (\~5) the flash drive won't work properly anymore and becomes read only. Is this just the reality of flash storage? If so, what's a good alternative that is portable but can handle being formatted often?

How did you get "good" at linux?

How did you get into linux and when did you become good at understanding it?

I've been learning to use various types of ubuntu-related OS for a few years now, but never really learned any behind the scenes stuff.

The great compatibility switcheroo!

My Windows 10 desktop crashed with an ntfs.sys blue screen.

​

Before I went rooting through the cables, I tried some software solutions. A Windows Recovery USB would not boot, same crash. A Windows Install USB would not boot, same crash. Hell, even a Hiren's Boot CD would not boot, stuck on a blinking cursor.

​

However, Ubuntu Live booted. Worked. Read the drives.

​

After unplugging drives, I found that the culprit was a dead SSD, used for a Temp/Volatile drive. But somehow, it prevented even a Windows Live image from booting.

​

Ubuntu spat out a couple of lines of errors, then booted as expected.

​

Not so many years ago, Linux was the OS most susceptible to HW errors. Now it just powers through!

​

Go Ubuntu!
