>still can't get fibre optic broadband
just be glad you're not an aussie
>tfw you will never get fibre because your neighbors that share the same driveway wont consent because they think you're selling them internet
>mfw ISP calls me and tells me I need to upgrade to 100 mbit/s from 50
>the dumb cunt literally says "people usually experience problems with 50 mbit/s" and acts like I'm an idiot who doesn't know what speed I need
>literally implying that the company she works for provides a bad service
>thinks that's going to make me pay them more

>Macbooks are overpriced
>Ok, show me a similarly priced laptop with the same specs or better. Reminder that $1300 rMBPs are light, have a 2560x1600 retina display, 8GB RAM, outstanding battery life, NVMe SSDs and the best build quality and support in the business

Can we finally put an end to this meme?
The "macbooks are overpriced" meme doesn't work with MBPs. But with Macbooks Air it works.

>he can't do all his work in any computer whatsoever
>he owns his computer, he doesn't just use a flashdrive and borrow people's assets
dunno about overpriced, but the software is overbugged.
Tell me a function on your computer and i'll tell you how my OS X or iOS devices manages to bug the fuck out of it (on a clean install)
What is the one pdf/book reader to rule them all on windows or linux? I just want something that support most file formats and will remember my pages and tabs.
Googlechrome
>>54525017
I use Okular

Does that remember your place in pdfs when you close it?
Enough of this transition era /g/, I'm tired of diversification, when will we have the honor of witnessing a life when you just plug your phone to a monitor/keyboard and enter desktop mode? When is native linux distros support coming out?WHEN WHEN WHEN? I'm so frustrated
Surface Phone.

Windows 7 vs Ubuntu.
What is the better ?
>vs threads
Are you 12 years old or do you just have the mind of a 12 year old?
>>54524840
the better question mark is the riddler
>>54524840
Windows 7 is better than ubuntu.
I cuck windows 7 inside a VM though
Why does Microsoft still WRONGLY use GB instead of GiB?
Apple, Gnome, KDE and other DEs get it right.
Is this a conservative/republican thing? Like imperial units?
>>54524824
Because most people know it as GB
>>54524824

Holy shit, you're a special sort of stupid, ain't ya?
Can I install raspbian on a netbook? If not, is there any lightweight OS out there (preferably as light or lighter than Raspbian)?
I got a netbook as a gift, and I think I want to use them as secondary media consumption/shitposting machine, but the preinstalled windows 8.1 made shit almost unbearably slow.
>>54524785
Can we get some idea of the specs?
I'm running Ubuntu mate pretty smooth and comfy on an Intel d2500.
>>54524785
No, unless the netbook uses an ARM processor. And even then it might be lacking drivers as raspbian was specifically made for the raspberry pi.
>what is raspbian based on?
>go to site
>they ask you nicely to turn off your adblocker so they can stay afloat
Well, why not?
>>54524661

Welcome to /fglt/. We are always open to users of all levels, including absolute beginners.
There are four ways to try GNU/Linux, you can:
0) Install a GNU/Linux OS on a VM (Virtual Machine/VirtualBox) for "safety purposes"
1) Use the Live ISO directly without installing anything, that way, you can get a "full GNU/Linux experience".
2) Dual-boot GNU/Linux with Windows/Mac (recommended if you want to learn more about GNU/Linux)
3) Go balls deep and overwrite everything with GNU/Linux
Before asking, please search for answers to your questions in resources.
Please be civil, notice the "Friendly" in every Friendly GNU/Linux Thread.
Understand that much of your software from Windows will be unavailable, although maybe WINE can make up for it.

Chromium. Fucking chromium. Everytime I try with both my AMD GPU and integrated intel graphics, any driver, any DE, both wayland and xorg, any composite manager, I cannot get rid of tearing on that. Firefox is fine, most applications are fine. But not Chromium. Not that piece of shit. I don't know what else to do.
I use webmin to control my ubuntu server from my local network. Is there any reason why the interface won't always load full? Sometimes some of the icons don't load and I have to refresh a couple of times.
Server isn't under massive load so I don't really know where to start.
>>54524651
What's your problem with firefox or icecat? I could help you get things you need working with them.
/g/ents after a decade of getting in trouble with professors (my fault ofc), bosses and having issues with focus/ staying at one place my doc thinks I have ADD. I got pissed after I started few projects and couldn't focus to finish even one of them, so I went to my doc for advice.
My question for /g/ents with similar diagnose is: Is there a way for you to beat it without medications (how do you plan/organize yourself)? I'm having issues with focus, listening, reading trough whole task before starting to work on it just to see I've done it completely wrong because I haven't read what's needed.
I'm living in a Eastern European country where ADD is still a joke and has 0 recognition, so I doubt I'll get access to any sort of medication without paying a LOT. Even testing for it costs a lot and you have to wait a year to get appointment.
>>54524530
I have it. Makes it really hard to focus and get shit done. I get focused on something for a few minutes and then all concentration is on something else. I'll get lost in thought or something and it really fucks me up any time I try to do work.
Maybe try removing all distractions nearby and think as much as you can about work?
>>54524530
There's so much over diagnosis of ADD in the USA, it's not even funny anymore.
Do you know how many people with ADD I know? Zero.
>>54527049
I'm trying. So far I'm failing miserably. I'll try to use timers and notes/schedules more often but still not sure how to focus more. Today I took my first SSRI for anxiety after years of trying to get over it without any medications. I guess I have to try harder.
We're almost halfway through 2016.
