Yo /g/, what is your perfect Linux distro?
i'll let you know when i find it
Ubuntu MATE
Windows 10
I'm not trying to bash Linux, I actually would like to use it. But how do you get around the problem of compatibility with video games? Yeah yeah, I know, "gaymz are for kids XD", but seriously.
Dual booting is of course an option, but constant rebooting doesn't seem practical. Wine works to some extent, but not always, especially with games that have been obtained, ahem, semi-legally.
Is there some third option I'm missing?

>but constant rebooting doesn't seem practical
You can always change your habits, like "today I'm going to play videogames" and just boot into windows. While if you just want to work you boot with Linux
Do you try to play Playstation games on a Xbox? No, you don't.
>>51785357
Just dual-boot for now.
It's nice to have windows set for one purpose.
Has Jony Ive started smoking Crack, lost his mojo or just got fucking lazy since Jobs died?
apple iDiots will eat it up anyway
>>51785216
Yeah but at one time, even an Apple hater could see that they were absolute masters of design. Their current stuff is cringeworthy.

the company has always been shit selling overpriced crap since day 1 only after this joke are people actually developing independent thought

I thought volunteers help make Firefox. Why do they even need to beg for money?
Get with the times, gramps.
>>51784909
Yeah, I'm on Windows 8.1 without any updates right now.
>>51784909
My grandpa still uses vista :|

You like to live dangerously?
Would slower than normal boot times and loading times of some software be a symptom of a dying harddrive?
Also, I've noticed things like time it takes for certain resources to load into games and some stuttering.
I've had a SSD for about 6 years (agility 3), and some shit regular 7200rpm harddrive for probably around the same amount of time.
Even firefox opens slowly occasionally.
I almost definitely don't have any sort of malware because I recently formatted both and re-installed my OS on the SSD.
>Having an ssd for 6 years
You should probably check how much of that ssd is actually alive.
>>51784856
If you wouldn't mind spoon feeding me real quick, is there recommended software for that or anything?
>>51784866
I use AIDA64, check the SMART data on your SSD using that or some other software that can display SMART data

what's your opinion on the duckduckgo search engine? i just changed my home page from jewgle to it. allegedly it doesn't track you at all
>>51784585
/g/ says ddg is run by a jew and therefore nobody should trust it
on the other hand ddg got an ontion adress
choose yourself
i actually have my adblock disabled for ddg
when i search for intel nucs, i get ads for the intel nuc i actually am looking at buying...
meanwhile over at google i get ads for random shit they think i'm also interested in.
>>51784585
It gives out more serious search results, but misses out on porn and other lowbrow subjects.
