Are you ready for the best linux distro yet?.
>over 800 issues closed.
Arch Linux can just shut down erementaly oS is going to take over.

>ubuntu 12.04 reskin
>best
I'm sort of a fan of elementaryOS, but there's a few things that stop be from using it as my daily distro.
On one hand, I really love that they've basically nailed that unicorn of a situation where a distribution is super simple to use and seemingly locked down on the desktop, but then you pop open a terminal and you've got all of the power Linux can offer.
On the other hand, it's just not different enough to me for it to be it's own distro, and their release schedule (at least historically, this time they're going much faster) always just seems to be that the version based on the latest LTS release comes out a full year into the Ubuntu release. 12.04 comes out, a year later Luna comes out, a year later 14.04 comes out, a year later Freya comes out, a year later 16.04 comes out, now we just wait and see how long this beta takes to see how long this one will take.
I tried to use it in Luna, then again in Freya, but I always ended up wiping it when the latest Ubuntu LTS dropped, so I just went back to Ubuntu. These days my primary desktop and laptop run Fedora, but everything else runs Ubuntu LTS. I could see any laptops other than my main one running this, but the release schedule has to sync up a little better.
Do they respect the GNU project?
why are manhours being wasted on desktop shit for bsd? bsd will literally never be useful on the desktop

Why are manhours being wasted on 4chan shitposting? Shitposting will nevre be useful in the real world.
>>55119305
why are manhours wasted on desktop linux it won't ever be useful too
but bsd could -- osx as a sorta-example
>>55119305
I have very little manhours with openbsd aside from the setup which is a bit annoying.
Not to say there isn't problems with it. I have to use C++17 features in the compiler for class and I can't do it on openbsd.
What sheets do rich people use?
>>55119245
go to your local sheet store, ask the guy what sheet that hides stains the most, use that
sheets with high thread counts and high quality silks.
>>55119245
Generally the higher the thread count, the higher the quality of sheets. Then you have fabric variations as well. Egyptian cotton, brushed cotton, various other cottons, flannel, silk, satin. It really depends on what you think feels nice. Never a bad idea to grab a set of a couple kinds. Satin or silk is for the ladies to enjoy as you hammer fuck them.
Hope this helps.
Small Questions Thread

This question
>>55119179
Let the tread die though please.
Is there such a thing as a website that scans your pc of malware and isn't just stealing your info or mining bitcoins?
Browsing internet raw-dog atm, it's good to check up every once in a while, no?
Malwarebytes
If you have a shady file or something you just want to check out you can get them checked on virustotal. They have this scanner on their website.

What's your opinion on cloudbooks?
They're basically netbooks with some kind of small SSD.
They cost like $150, i think that for web browsing, watching youtube videos and taking notes at the college should be enough right?
https://www.amazon.com/Acer-Cloudbook-11-Inch-AO1-131-C9PM-Personal/dp/B0149QDD1S/ref=sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1466144482&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=cloudboox
i have essentially the same one you linked, not because it is particularly similar, but becuase theyre all the same p much
yeah its useful and i have a fairly powerful desktop for actually doing things but id really recommend the cheapest one you find
any extra features arent worth it cuz it really is just a more convenient mobile browser
I have the X205TA. Great for browsing and streaming. Take it to classes. Battery life is superb and it was only $125 CAD.
I'm effectively using one right now. Cost about $200, 13" (I used to have a smaller netbook and honestly it's just not good; 13 is a solid minimum), 2GB RAM and a 32GB SSD. I think that it's optimistic to expect Windows to run comfortably on it. Doing what I could to make that happen for about half a year, I finally gave in and put Linux on it. It runs like a dream and my battery life is right around the same 6 hours of web browsing and typing that I was getting before.
I'm happy. It's a fair bit better than the aforementioned netbook I used through college.
I remember there was a /g/ managed Mega folder full of awesome CS/hacking books called something like g's black bible compilation or something like that. Does that still exist?

Coming to you faggots for help buying a new laptop
Here's my requirements:
- $800 - $1200
- REALLY want it to have a 2 click trackpad cause I fucking hate the stupid ass 1 button trackpads, but this is the one thing I can go without.
- Avoid Asus cause they're fucks.
- Have a dedicated graphics card, doesn't have to be strong, just not integrated bullshit.
- 15 in plz.
- at least 8GB of RAM, but that's low, 12 or up
- 6th gen Intel Processor.
- Has to look semi business-okay. I found the MSI GE62 but I can't buy it because this is for work and it looks like a gaming laptop. I can't resell the laptop to a client once I'm done with it cause it looks retarded.
Well, if any of you guys can help me, I'm going insane.
Also, no Apple laptops, they're a joke.
>>55118635
No. Fuck off and do your own research.
Almost all of these things can be entered straight into a Newegg power search.
