I watch his Elite Dangerous Let's play and he's on my friendlist ingame.
He's the only "youtuber" I know of that doesn't act like a total faggot to get attention/views.
You have to be able to understand German, though.

So what ever happened to this shit? I don't see anyone talking about it anymore.
Overpriced and theres no need to eat the same thing all day every day.
Whey is a much better meal replacement for much lower price.
Soylentmeme sounds good until you realize that just eating beans, rice, oats, potatoes, and bananas is just as easy, time efficient, nutritious, and a tenth as expensive.
>>52934688
>overpriced
$3 a meal isn't very expensive.

>calling something you don't like a meme
Someone, please fork GIMP, give it a less stupid name and overhaul this piece of shit they call a "user interface". I'd even donate to support the development.
OK.
I'll make the logo.
>>52934520
What is wrong with the UI?
GIMP is long dead
Try Krita
what are some essential firefox addons?
bonus points if someone can tell me the name of an addon that had a background, clock, and a nice greeting message but can't remember the name of it
privacytools.io
DownThemAll
DownThemAll Anti-Container
Tab Groups (if you're using a version that already has native tab groups gone)
Those are the ONLY thing keeping me on Firefox. DTA and Tab Groups are awesome

Intended for users of all levels, including absolute beginners.
There are four ways to try Linux, you can:
1) Install a Linux OS on a VM (Virtual Machine/VirtualBox) for "safety purposes"
2) Use the Live ISO directly without installing anything, that way, you can get a "full Linux experience".
3) Dual-boot Linux with Windows/Mac (recommended if you want to learn more about Linux)
4) Go balls deep and overwrite everything with Linux (not recommended)
Before asking, please search for answers to your questions in resources.
Please be civil, notice the "Friendly" in every Friendly Linux Thread.
Understand that much of your software from Windows will be unavailable, although maybe wine can make up for it.

how would I check? Obviously I want to use the AMD one
>>52931436
You said it reports the wrong one. It reports 2 gpus though that's why I want to know which gpu you really have. Is this a laptop? If yes, look at your distros wiki on hybrid graphics.

Any way to run the Windows sysprep thing /after/ the hardware has been changed? I can't go back to the old hardware to run it and I would want to avoid a clean install.
