Yeah dude, exactly. Except I actually do want to start using it. I've been
disabling SELINUX forever because I wasn't familiar with using it. I've
decided to change my tune on that this year and get more familiar with hit.
I've always recognized it to be a good thing. Even if I didn't really have
a clue about it.

Thanks for the suggestion anyway!
