When you run OpenSUSE, you can feel it was made by Germans.
The installer is a beautiful example of German engineering.
The package manager is a perfect example of German over-engineering.
If you run it with KDE, you have 2 redundant GUI admin tools for every config in the system, and 4 for setting up printers.

    It's amazing how OpenSUSE got my laptop's valve covers to leak oil.

    As the owner of many old German cars this is funny but only because it means no one read the technical manual that came with the car
