You've taken your first step into a larger world.

>>52051000
Chrome for normie stuff, firefox + plugins for chans and porn, tor for fun.

If OP is doing web dev then they'll need more than 4 browsers.
>>
>>52050975
Why Slackware?

You shouldn't be using the root account for pretty much anything unless really needed.

>>52051106
im on my user account and used su- to compile that thing to show the logo

is there a better way?
>>
>>52051065
in 2004 when i got trillian instant messenger there was a "slackware" skin and i've been really curious about it ever since. so when it came time to install linux, i took the 4chan method and said "whats the most off the wall shit i can install"
>>
>>52051405
sudo <command>

you'll have to add your users to the sudoers tho.
>>
>>52051405
you dont need to build as root btw
>>
Should've used xubuntu
>>
>>52051569
so su - is a toggle and sudo is just for that command? i learned the terminal on puppy so i didnt even know about users until i started slackware
>>
>>52051715
you can have commands run without asking for passwd with the sudoer.file and an alias for the program in .bashrc

yep pretty much. sudo is "super user do". I've never used Slackware but the Arch wiki is usually helpful regardless of what you're on.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sudo

I use Arch, gonna give slackware a spin now though.
>>
>>52050975
Slackware, just like a old school Linux user that started using Linux in the 90s. But isn't slackware a pain in the ass?don't you have to manually download all dependencies when installing a new application?
>>
>>52051759
substitute user do actually
