Slack Live Edition experience

I thought that it may be useful for others if I will share my experience using this Slackware version. First of all: praise AlienBob for this excellent system. My configuration: Lenovo ThinkPad T430, without hard drive. System runs from USB pendrive - I have two SD cards (mmc) of sizes 8GB and 32GB - they serve to save data. I fully customized Xfce. When stop to work I suspend system. Works fine. I built geany, transmission, coolreader for ebooks and radio station reapers (remind no hard drive). Ktorrent is too heavy - when starts it also starts other services - say kdeconnectd (why?). This edition - the one I run offers Firefox ESR - still. I switch off totally pulseaudio and use alsa only system. Watching movies - standalone or on youtube works fine. At the end - if someone needs stable system to survive up to Slackware 15.0 release - this Live Edition is very good candidate. Install on hard drive and use it - for sure you will be very satisfied and regain belief in Slackware stability. Of course in case of full installation I suggest to switch off automatic -current updates - they for sure damage the system. Only what really is necessary - but I think someone can live for long time without updates at all. Live Edition is somehow closed, rigid. careless update for sure will break it. Better is to wait for next Live Edition.latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=lrs2yKeVO7s:mLfg__TlGU0:F7zBnMy latest?i=lrs2yKeVO7s:mLfg__TlGU0:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=lrs2yKeVO7s:mLfg__TlGU0:gIN9vFwlrs2yKeVO7s
