Intended for users of all levels, including absolute beginners.
There are four ways to try Linux, you can:
1) Install a Linux OS on a VM (Virtual Machine/VirtualBox) for "safety purposes"
2) Use the Live ISO directly without installing anything, that way, you can get a "full Linux experience".
3) Dual-boot Linux with Windows/Mac (recommended if you want to learn more about Linux)
4) Go balls deep and overwrite everything with Linux (not...

Windows and OSX users, how does it feel to know there's an entire group of individuals who are better with computers than you are? Meet GNU+Linux users. They are better than you.
They understand the hardware better. They understand the basic principles of computer science better. They know how networks work better than you. They understand the pros and cons of filesystems (including NTFS and HFS+) because with GNU+Linux you get to choose filesystems. They can probably program, too, since learning a scripting language vastly improves productivity under GNU+Linux (and...

I know this is bait but even 8gb of RAM for the ITX build I just made for my mom is overkill. Facebook eBay and Netflix don't need no 8 gibibytes of ramerino. She definitely doesn't need no God damn 16 giberygoops in that bitch.

Resistance is futile.
>>52937946
Even Microsoft said you can't remove all the spying
>it is illegal to view certain images, videos or even texts
where did we go so wrong as a people
as long as you don't commit the crime, why is it illegal to see?
i blame it on americans
fuck off pedo
>>52935594
Viewing images creates a demand for them, which in turn motivates people to create these images, which is illegal.
Therefore the viewing of these images should also be illegal, in an attempt to lessen the demand and decrease the suffering and harm caused by the production of said images.

Why do people use this shit? It's the slowest fucking OS I have ever used.

Maybe this can be a challenge for the thread?
