Why is this resolution so comfy?

Please don't remind me of my shitty old laptop, anon.
>>52241318
Dunno, i'm using 1600x900, planning to get a bigger res monitor.
>>52241318
My laptop is 1366x768, and I don't know what you're talking about. It's pretty awful.
Intended for users of all levels, including absolute beginners.
There are three 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) Go balls deep and overwrite everything with Linux (not recommended)
If you are serious about switching to Linux and if you have Windows dual-booted (recommended for pure newbies), we recommend you use it exclusively for 2 weeks, and avoid Windows dual booting for that period of time, or it's likely you will start retreating back to windows instead of getting used to Linux as your new home and working on making it feel the way you want it.
Before asking, please find the 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.

No.
>>52240650
For $4? Sure, you did fine.
But why not Mint?
>>52240650
>pentium dual core
enjoy your total flop of a housfire kek.

>CM11
Kek
>>52239996
Aim for CM13 buddy, also nice phone.
Currently on a Galaxy S6 and seems quite long-lasting too. Upgraded from a Z1 compact that finally got water into it :(
>>52239996
eh, I make good money so I don't mind buying a new phone every 3-4 years.
Currently have a Galaxy Note5

OH MY GOD!
I saw a video on Youtube of one of these but I don't see any actual uses for it. Opinions pls
>>52239203
Absolutely no use for them unless you're law enforcement or trying to avoid law enforcement.
>>52239203
>just a prank bro
yes
>>52239203
What's their effective range?
Arch is the best Linux Distro ever made, prove me wrong
Pro tip: You can't

Oh helped my wife's son install arch on his computer after he saw me using it in my shed. We both love it and the wife is happy
What does /g/ think of pic related?
as someone who works in infosec it's actually pretty realistic save for his ability to crack passwords in a fraction (read minutes when it would take millenia with a supercomputer) of the time it'd actually take
This is the second post I've seen asking this exact question in the past 10 hours. Fuck off.
Fake and gay
Let's have some fun.
Roll a number and then check pic.int Roll(int x){
if(x < 88){
return x;
}
else{
return x%88;
}
}
Whatever you rolled is now what you have to experiment coding in:

Poorfag here, how does /g/ budget their shekels??

Use your fingers to push the keys of your calculator instead of your fountain pen and you should be fine.
Do hoverboards have any use at all?
>>52237067
They can put Mike Tyson on his back.
They're just toys. Probably pretty fun here and there. The amount of attention their getting is absurd. I see wall-e becoming true by removing the overall need to move all together.
>>52237067
Yeah, to look like a pretentious faggot.
This thread was created to prevent anons from spamming new threads, for technology questions they have.
If you are that person, post your simple/small/stupid questions here
Stop with this bump nonsense. You're more likely to get sarcasm if you bump, so just don't
There's a sticky with helpful information in it.
Fucking Google your question before you post it.
If you see other anons posting questions outside this thread, ignore or redirect them here
Use >>>/g/sqt as a link to find the sqt thread
Fuck when did /g/ become reddit, forget /flt/ or any other subreddit, I'm sorry I even tried. There's like 20 or more fucking generals/threads

What's the easiest way to transfer a large amount of files from one pc to another?
Both are Linux based, trying to move about 100 gigs.
Haven't seen one of these in a little while.
What monitor(s) are you currently using? Planning on upgrading any time soon?
I'm currently using the HP 2311x, thinking about upgrading later this year.
>>52234201
Get the 970 gtx you don't regret it
>>52234392
Silly anon, we're talking about monitors not GPUs.
>>52234417
oh silly me, tehe
FreeBSD or DragonFLY?
>>52225097
I'd rather use ZFS over HAMMER, but HAMMER2 looks promising.
>>52225132
Do you think DragonFly is anymore reliable for desktop use?
dragonfly is literally just a research operating system
there's no point to using it or netbsd
