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 recommended)

Is not OS X like a Linux distro? Why would you install dual bot when you have already a Unix system? Just asking, I have no idea
Having a problem with firefox.
It wont load my profiles, and when i remove the .mozilla folder, it creates .mozilla but it dosent create a skeleton profile to load to.It says its inaccessable or empty.
I've backed up my profile and ive spent hours trying to get it to function again.I even reverted to v35, to no avail.
Im out of ideas

Noctua fans are a placebo affect like most air cooling methods. They take right after AMD but instead rely on JUST ADD MORE HEATPIPES charts instead.
The year is 2016 and by now liquid cooling is so mainstream there's no reason to have one unless you're a dirtpoor nigger. Just recently I upgrade to the Hygro Series™ H5 SF Low-Profile Liquid CPU Cooler and needless to say it's flawless. You really can't go wrong with its size and it cools better than even the dual rads thanks to Corsair innovated new liquid cooling system. Other brands are so bad that they can't even remain stable while in use. Talk about pathetic.
There's no reason to not have one already.

ffs if hackers couldn't read the source code this would never have happened.
This is pretty convincing!
Why are you not using Windows 10, /g/?

What does /g/ think about the R9 Nano?
How does it compare to the GTX 980?
I use a 60Hz 1440p monitor if that matters.

>>52422412
Apple hasn't announced anything yet. Just rumor blogs speculating based on some part supplier saying orders are down.

Comply and watch him wade through the shitfest that is my five year old laptop. With an almost full 1TB HDD there are more junk files scattered everywhere than I care to think about. The only thing vaguely compromising are screenshots of my ex when we were skyping.
They can look at it all they want, I'm not logging in for them.
I don't have a laptop
Look out!
It's unnecessary upgrade time with charlie!
Looks like charlie has found a heat sink today.
>>52421557
i enjoy stock heatsinks that are as loud as a vacuum cleaner.
Looks like there are some screws and things too.

I enjoy your mom who is also as loud as a vacuum cleaner
