>>
>>54568837
You don't need it.
>>
>>54568851
i guess those are some pretty general terms....

for work i would say paper writing, image editing. stuff like that. (your a bit pissed at me arnt you.)

as for fucking around with, ive been meaning to get into python or java.
>>
>>54568919
Paper writing I assume you mean office tasks ?... LibreOffice. Image manipulation.. GIMP. Programming languages don't know... you'll have to look into the compiler toolchain for those. I use C and C++ only.

Hey, can you share the pape? That would be super dank from you.
>>
>>54570723
And this one? Can you post that one too, please?
>>
>>54568666
I tried a bunch of distros on VMs a few weeks ago and I gotta say that Arch was by far the most performant. Plus you gotta admit that it's impressive how far a non-RHEL, non-Debian distro got. Making an online package manager with a well-furnished repository from scratch can't be easy.
>>
So, I should learn to install and use Arch since there's been an upsurge on Arch hate for the past few months?
>>
Debian is shit, it's ran by SJWs. Anyone with dignity would run arch linux.
>>
>>54571970
Yes. Just reserve a few hours for it though. But it's a learning experience.
>>
>>54571970
>>54571951
Why Arch when you are in a debian thread?
>>
>>54572014
It feels like a very subtle mock Arch users thread but let's pretend it's a Debian thread thread. It also feels like more like an Arch thread.

Your operating system is ran from your hard drive by your computer's components. Unless you have a SJW extension card, then you're just being a salty little dicknose about a sparse few articles on their wiki that triggered your Trumpautism.

>>54572014
This is a distro thread.

That picture of the Debian logo is just a picture. Pictures aren't the things they represent. For example, the picture here isn't a real clown. It's a picture of a clown.
>>
Speaking of clowns,

is it possible to boot Linux from a ZFS tank that is made out of all the storage media I own, and that INCLUDES all the USB sticks?
>>
>>54572089
That's not complicated enough. Try spicing it up a little. Maybe you want your boot loader to be on an NTFS drive on a remote server?
>>
>>54572089
Yes.

>Boot FreeBSD.
>Mount all your drives into your ZFS tank.
>Start a Linux virtual machine.

No need to thank me.
>>
well somehow i always end up in linux threads i know its a debian thread but i use OpenSuSe and Mint but somehow im stil unhappy i have the feeling i wanna try something else i feel those distros aint perfect for me so i need the enlightening opinion of /g/ fags of the "way" to go
>>
>>54572340
IT'S NOT A DEBIAN THREAD.
>>
>>54569487
Holy shit dude, can you post that wallpaper? It looks amazing.. And your setup is cool as hell. 10/10
