PopOS looks fun — and if you don't want to tinker with it a lot, I'd go with that, I've heard lots of good things about it.
I'd of course put Void on it — because that's what I use everywhere, it runs fine on my old Macs. Once you set everything up it's like a very sharp tool with no nonsense, but if you've never used it I do not recommend it — it's rather… unusual compared to your average "user-friendly" distro, takes some time to get accustomed to.

Homegrown worms are still the best! I'm an amateur worm farmer myself, right now I have two piles of compost in one worm bin, let the breeding commence! 🤪🪱

At least that is how it was supposed to work, I'm not sure when this Internet recovery thing was introduced even, AFAIK, my 2011 MBP can't do it, but I had an iMac from the same era in the office and I tried it once — it worked!

@gordoooo_z
Not sure when such an option was introduced, but it might not 😁
The EFI part itself can make a recovery partition, download the recovery image — which is relatively small as it doesn't include complete OS installation files and restore it on the partition it has created.
So it might work even with no OS at all, basically with a blank hard drive.
It then proceeds to reboot from that recovery partition, downloads OS installation files and you can re-install the OS normally.

@gordoooo_z
AFAIR these Macs had the option to download the image of recovery partition from Apple's severs if it's not found on the hard drive. Question is, how does it connect to the Internet? If you ever configured wireless network in Mac OS X, it saves the ssid and key to EFI, so it's probably using that.

Great design! Why is there a nuclear mushroom on his tummy though? 🤔

What should they be copying then, Plan 9? Don't even get started about "original ideas" — these don't exist, people don't have them!

@kravietz
No, of course it has to be something else 😅
It's hard to even imagine the scale of that kompromat if that is indeed the case.

Secretly? 😏

Trump's game is becoming a bigger mystery by day. "Pee pee tape" is just a joke and all, but now it seems the only plausible explanation 😂
What he's doing right now, looks like even his supporters are no longer buying it 🤷
