Why is Ubuntu such a steaming pile of shit.
Pictured: the installation process of Ubuntu Server
>>55041247
also why are Linux distributions so fucking slow to install?
Like, it takes 5 minutes to install Windows 7 (which I believe is mainly attributed to its good-made HAL)
Why don't just distribute a flat file that would be copied with dd automatically on the computer and let me decide later on if I wanna sudo apt-get update or if I want to install the drivers myself.

It requires constant attention too. Type something in, wait a minute, select another thing, wait two minutes, .... until the end. Why can't they make it like on Windows, you select your shit BEFORE, then you wait 30 minutes, then you select something else AFTER the wait is done.
Also, "apt-get autoremove" will do the same shit when it removes 10 old kernels.
Kernel removed, regenerate
Kernel removed, regenerate
Kernel...

Enjoy your government botnet
Wait, is it still alive?
I remember it being hip back in 2006, with symbian around
After deleting all my online accounts to my name, if it doesn't appear on google searches, does it mean I successfully erased myself from the internet? Or can my activity be traced down by the respective authorities? Can google track me down and show the world what porn I used to browse in my teens?
You're going to jail.

No, you're just an autistic fuck who fell for the 'someone actually cares about your life' meme.
>>55041282
I know,but what if sometime in the future someone does? Even if it's all hypothetical , is the answer yes or no? I need to know

No biggy it's only used for debugging. MS is just looking out for us you paranoid neckbeard.
>>55040806
I thought it was only in release builds not the debugging? Or do i have that backwards
>>55040753
You can use gcc on windows. Theres dev cpp and codeblocks. You dont have to use microsofts shitty ide.
Any difference in types of mother boards g ?
Sockets, size, chipsets, features, connectors
So just places I can plug stuff in ?
Good mother boards already have stuff like sound cards and lan cards integrated so you don't need to buy them separately.
This is a socket 1366 motherboard. It supports 6 core hyper threaded CPUs, up to 24GB RAM, SATA 3 and USB 3, more PCI-E lanes than most modern consumer boards, power button on the mobo, clear cmos on the I/O and post LED On the board as well as 7 fan headers.
This is over 6 years old.
How far have we really come?
Not that far in terms of standards, but better quality im sure and more efficient
>>55040669
>SATA 3 and USB 3
you mean via pci right?
>>55040669
not to mention that floppy port. sort your shit out modern manufacturers

crt is superior for gaming m8
Been using Ubuntu and Arch. I feel Arch is much more simpler to use.

I literally have none of these problems on Ubuntu, except for no cinnamon.
But who cares, mate is a great DE.
>>55040591
Can software center find kdevelop?
>>55040514
Because Ubuntu is for plebs, All memes aside Arch is the superior distro, The version of mate you have on Arch is new and Ubuntu wont have it in the repos for months.
Are you prepared?
>>55040476
no I should probably clean the dishes or something

Yep. I got my windows 10 laptop encrypted with bitlocker and my macbook is also encrypted with Apples encryption.

What about your linux server?
First Javascript triumphed in the browser
Then it rose to become lingua franca of the Net
OK, people said, we admit, Javascript won client-side, but for server side you still need PHP, Python...
Enter Node.JS - JS expands to server-side and triumphs there.
Then they said: OK JS wins client side and serverside but at least smartphone apps are written in Java, Swift, objective C, we're safe there.
And Javscript with NativeScript triumphs phone apps as well.
Seriously is there anything left for other languages? How can they even compete?

Can anyone ID this IBM vintage bag for me? Need to know the size and shit if it can fit a T520 inside
It's a pre-2000 vintage IBM Messenger bag by IBM
>>55040694
I garnered as much, no actual name/ID or part number?
I assume this is being sold online or something? Just ask the vendor for the inside dimensions of the bag.
this book is fucking hard.
I know I am retarded but I have to read things at least 2 times.
>>55040277
Same here, It's not really targeted for newbie.
>>55040277
Get C Primer Plus if you're new. The C Programming Language is definitely worth a read, but don't do it when you've never ever programmed before.
>>55040454
nice. Thank you.
How does one make one's compuiter and internet use as private, secure and anonymous as possible?
Which OS is optimal?
Is a VPN required? If so, which one do you recommend?
What kind of additional software and such would one need?
I spent too much time on this. Makes you really paranoid. I don't say proprietary software or Google is not bad, but at the end of they day, they help you so much.
Which VPN would you use for general torrenting?
>>55040264
what's your setup?
