post why you use ublock or adblock
I use adblock because ublock is being shilled hard so I don't trust it.

I use uBlock Origin because I don't like to see ads.

Opulent givings are seldom a dread.
They help you relieve all them lies in your head.
But for the giving begets a sure vain,
Leave open a window and let in some rain.

Old thread: >>54146672
I was typing and I made a mistake. I tried to hit ctrl+Z to quickly delete the last word I'd written, I know I should've just hit ctrl+backspace but it's not a habit of mine yet.
Anyway, the last word I'd written was "home" and I pressed the wrong key or keys because instead of deleting the text, it fucking autocompleted it and turned it into fucking "Homesmut" including the capital H. I know the word wasn't on my clipboard and I never even fucking knew that was a word, so it was certainly not in my history, internet or otherwise
What I want to know is, what the fuck did I press to make my text autocomplete? I am using windows 10. If any other additional information is needed I can totally share because I really want to know what happened
I have here:

I'm going to do it fuckers, Intel doesn't have anything that can compete with the FX 8 cores when it comes to game streaming/footage capture or virtual machine work.
Is there any reason not to go AMD for my use case? An i5 is too expensive for me and not worth the loss in thread count.

How is Google Play?
Good
I like it. I can't find most of my degenerate music on Spotify, GPM All Access or other music streaming services so I just have a youtube-dl script set to download to a folder watched by Google play music manager and automatically uploaded. I haven't automated the metadata yet so I have to input that manually but it works really well.
it's ok i guess
Unless you've tried every switch type out there, you have no idea what's perfect or best edition.

>Apple
overpriced products, can't delete apple-id account, CEO is literally a faggot, claims their phones are secure yet their phones get hacked every day. Gives data to LEA without hesitation. Based in the US.
botnet, i signed up for Gmail only but then they added all of their botnet services to my account and enables them by default that harvests your data. Gives data to LEA without hesitation. Based in the US.
>Microsoft
charge $200 for their operating system and still have the guts to pack it with botnet telemetry which can't be disabled. Gives data to LEA without hesitation. Based in the US.
>Nvidia
treats my Dell monitors as TV-screens, thus disabling the full sRGB colour range which gives me washed out colours. Releases a new 400MiB driver for every new game. GeForce Experience takes 20 seconds to launch on SSD's. Closed source everything. Bullies game developers to make their games work better on Nvidia.
>Intel
disgusting marketing campaigns. hardware backdoor into their CPU's. Charging $50 to unlock some software features on their CPU's (link below).

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.

Which flavor of Ubuntu 16.04 should I get?
Gnome
>Weird task flow
>looks nice
>window title bars are fat as fuck
Unity
>don't know anything about it
>looks ok/polished from what I can tell
>ugly ass task bar
Mate
>is it actually better than gnome or unity?
Xfce
>old as fuck
>buggy
>mate is probably better
>>54140605
I recommend to try all of them in a VM first, then you can decide yourself what DE is your cup of tea. They all have their pros and cons.
>>54140605
I like gnome. The flow is different, but it's acutally way more efficient. Different themes can reduce title bar height.
If you don't like it though, go with cinnamon. It's very pretty with decent plugin support.
Fuck your copypasta edition.
