You have one per installed kernel. Not sure what (if any) automagic is common for removing old kernels, I guess this varies between distros, but at least on my computers, old kernel remain. At least the previous one, maybe more. It comes in handy in case a kernel upgrade breaks something, which it actually did recently on one of my laptops - makes it easier to boot from old kernel and revert.

EDIT: I just checked. I have just one on my daily driver. It’s quite new, and I don’t think I’ve had a kernel upgrade on that one, so it makes sense.

On my work laptop (the one with borked kernel upgrade) I have two.

So what you most likely have is one or more vmlinuz-version-numbers, and then simply a symlink named just vmlinuz to the version you boot from.

Short answer to your last paragraph:
vmlinuz is the kernel. It ends with z instead of x, because it’s z-compressed to save space. (I’ve heard that it’s possible to use an uncompressed kernel for that 1ms faster boot time)
Initramfs (not intramuscular, which my autocorrect thinks is appropriate) is a small filesystem blob, “initial ram filesystem”, meant to be loaded directly into ram to allow the kernel to talk to your hardware via drivers. It also has a lot of binaries needed to perform other tasks that need to run before the root filesystem is mounted.

What happened to Tibet again?

Plural.

Can’t be arsed fixing that for you.

As well as macro

“It just works”

…because that is the state of a mainstream modern distro, and it’s not true of Windows anymore.

Alternatively “No nagging, no forced online account.”

cd /usr/ports/hammertothehead && make && make install

…for FreeBSD users

yum install melatonin

That picture specifically reawakened my PTSD.

Yeah, lemmygrad is definitely… oh you were referencing Christmas… nevermind…

They do, depending on where you’re from and where you’re going.

I’ve had to get a new passport a few times after running out of space for additional stamps.

I would’ve liked to see him try mint instead. Less fluff, and hopefully that would’ve gone better for him.

Wtf would I care? It’s not Like I’m gonna have have office hours. Hungry? Dinner time!

I wish. It’s that small overlap between GenX and Millennial. I fall into both/neither category, depending on which definition you go by.

Scandinavian Xenial here. It’s been popular here for as long as I can remember.

Yup. I think the engine improvements that allowed for the gravity gun to be a m7ch more prominent HL2 thing.

This person has never had to file an expense claim for meals that are paid by the employer.

Yes, it’s only a dollar or two. But it’s a dollar or two that my employer has to pay extra.

I once picked up one of those dirt cheap breakfast toasts from burger King. My expense report stated “Worst breakfast ever. Never again.”

I prefer the left road. The right one leads to a perception of being awkward AND stupid.

It is. Typo.

And I think Ralph Wiggum should be included just for that extended meta
