is there a ootb loonix distro that doesn't have a UI that looks like its from 2008?
>>54438012
yes, do your homework.
>>54438012
Yes, but then you'll bitch it doesn't look like 1995.
>>54438012
Literally anything from Manjaro, but KDE is the best.
I need a new keyboard and mouse /g/ any suggestions?
>>54437965
Yeah, man. Go to your local BestBuy, and ask someone there. They know more about this shit than an average /g/tard, because they work with their products every day.

OH SHIT I just fucked up big time
I just took this tech class with this terrible professor and I went through blackboard and tried to email a few students directly to see what their opinion of the course was before I decided to contact the Dean - just to make sure that I wasn't the one with the problem. I seriously want my fucking money back for this class.
Well, turns out Blackboard sends that email to EVERYONE in the class including the professors. I still have another 1-2 years of classes to take where I might end up with him as my instructor. I fucked...

Yes and I'm about to so poorly on an exam as a result. It happens. Also, why would you email that way. Ask students IN CLASS if you must.
I have to take this class in Data Structures and Algorithms, any helpful websites that could prepare me for this, I'm not the best at coding that's why I ask. Thanks /g/
Get better at coding

I guess so
Is this OS any good?
>>54437774
Yes.
>>54437774
For servers? Sure.
For the desktop? No, try Fedora instead.
>>54437807
So let's say a company uses it, if I wanted to learn this OS specifically for the company then I'd need server knowledge if this OS is more beneficial for server use?
Anyone smart like me and use prepaid phone? I pay $20 for 180 minutes for 90 days (which is far more than enough). Averages to only $7 a month. Text counts as half a minute. No plans, no contracts. Minutes carryover.
I carry two phones. One dumb phone (prepaid phone that makes calls), and a smartphone (can browse stuff with Wi-Fi but can't make calls). Only real downside is you can't browse on data and require Wi-Fi on smartphone to browse.
Pic unrelated.
>>54437772
All ive ever used is pre paid
Just seems easier and cheaper somehow, i dont make heaps of calls or use it that much and ive always been put off by having to sign up to some weird contract and receive monthly bills
>>54437772
I have a job, so penny pinching in not part of my daily activities. You should try applying to some interesting positions in your city. Besides, your parents want to have loud, dirty sex, but your constant presence interferes with that activity.

Do you guys think virtual reality will be the future of technology? How long will it take to be integrated into society like smartphones were?
It's already dead
>>54437668
>How long will it take to be integrated into society like smartphones were?
consider how long smartphones took
I'm not sure where to draw the starting line (original blackberry? newton?) but it was a long wait between that and iPhone/Android-level market penetration
>>54437710
I remember the Blackberry kind of started it a bit, and then when the iPhone came out everybody had one within a year
At least that was how it was where Iive

what's the best bang for your buck certs?
I need a career change, and I'm 30 years old with a mortgage and bills. I can stay afloat for about 12-18 months, but I need to be making 80k+ after that (ballpark, but hopefully at least that)
any ideas appreciated. USA, California.
>>54437587
>Commiefornia
Move somewhere not shit. Default on your mortgage. Start anew.
you could get your CNNA in 10 months. Ideally you'd want 2 years to become a network admin who make 120k a year
>>54437587
Move to a flyover state where shit is cheap.

/g/ why is Windows more secure than Linux?
>>54437456
Norton.

Professional developers secure it for their job as opposed to unpaid neets in their basement securing it when they feel like it if they can even manage to figure out how
Great post, my colleague. I'm sure the manager will be pleased with your performance!
What do you do with older machines?
I have an AMD E-350 laptop sitting around that draws very little power (like 6 watts at idle)
it's only purpose has been to try new software before I put on on my main machine, problem is some software fucks it up and its slow to reload everything when this happens
>>54437346
>What do you do with older machines?
Hoard them and occasionally take photos of them for /g/ to see.
>>54437346
Throw them the fuck out.
>>54437346
after a year max out ram, after 3 years add new GPU. After 5 give away to retard family member or sell to other retard.
What's the best terminal + text editor color scheme?

Best way to backup?
Is there any good softwafe so setup backup like once a week and what is the best backup setup like a special harddrive for it?
Off yourself.
If you're using Windows it comes with a built in backup utility that works fine and is easy to setup.
Windows Backup is shite m8
