desktops
>>52089955
you can make windows look exactly like any desktop you see on this board (except maybe OS X) with an xserver like xming or the cygwin one...
hello
Get a Debian haha
>>52089983
I still say you shouldn't space your replies out so far if you're going to split the screen like that, and that you should add padding to the bottom of the thread so the last reply doesn't overlap
>>52089955

any CPAs or CMAs here?

No rice as usual
>>52089955
If it's your first, go Ubuntu (derivative like Lubuntu or something) and rice the shit out of it.
Debian if you're more experienced.
Arch (with or without archboot/architect) if you muh customization and lightweight stuff.
Gentoo if you like the memes and the package manager.
Slackware if.. hell, I don't know. I don't think it's a very good idea for beginners to use imo.
you guys like perfect blue?
>>52090347
Great movie. Maybe not Kon's very best but it was certainly influential.
Oops.
>>52090347
i like berlin blue
>>52090347
Also, Liumin is a fantastic album. Good taste in media—just work on your desktop some.

>>52090557
If you require proprietary firmware during installation, it can be a bit of a pain to obtain them.
I know you can use the netinst image, but it's just annoying having to go and find the appropriate .iso deep inside the Debian website.
That being said, I think I'm going to go install it now.

Not quite. 4chan promotes choice of identity. The option to post anonymously is often misunderstood: you can be as anonymous or as identifiable as you so choose. That's why there's a name field in the first place! Moot has some great talks and write-ups on this topic.
I happen to think you're a prime candidate for tripcode adoption. Even just a name would be satisfactory. The stars are aligned and the cards are right. Give it a try!

What makes you say that? And why do you elect to frequent an imageboard that has always offered tripcodes (including secure trips) as an integral feature?

There's no need for a tripcode on desktop threads.
Fresh install, I like it white
>>52090914
That's exactly how it works. I understand how it can be confusing for new users, however, which is why I'm trying to help.

>>52091030
Can i fix it by correctly compiling my kernel? Instead of trying to do it the lazy way and copying someone's.config

The money quote is at 5:39, in case anyone doesn't want to sit through the whole talk.
>>52090982

>>52091059
FIRST: did you forget to install the modules? that's a common mistake
SECOND: yes, you can do it yourself. look into the genkernel package

From what I understand the sound system at the Matrix didn't allow them to get as noisy as they wanted to, but yeah it definitely ramped up. The contrast in dynamics is nice given the extra long run length.

GUYS, IF YOU'RE HAVING TROUBLE WITH ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION IT'S NOT BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE MASTURBATION LIKE I ONCE THOUGHT IT WAS, MUCH LIKE YOU. TAKE A VITAMIN D3 SUPPLEMENT.

2. Snails can have a long life.
The life span for snails depends on their habitat and the species. Some of them only live for about 5 years. However, others in the wild are believed to be up to 25 years old in unusual occasions.
>>52092405
wow
I kind of have the opposite problem though. Like, I get heavy erections multiple times a day, often in inappropriate times. I also have to be careful not to move when it happens because even the slightest friction causes me to ejaculate violently.

Some quick help, if you wouldn't mind /g/. Did a fresh install on a new hdd and have been setting up 4chan X, how do I get ctrl+s to give me spoiler tags again (I have keybindings off, but it's not stopping it from opening the save feature) and to get post quotes to open in the post they're quoting? I've tried every damn setting. Also using Onee-chan, but not noticing any issues from it.
Thanks in advance.

Nope. It was default on doing it, was suggested to turn it off, have restarted the browser as well.
>>52089907
Hey OP. Can you carefully describe your setup?
>>52093365
>i hate anime
Then your desktop will be shit no matter what wall you pick. So you could just settle for some shitty deviantart wall.
>>52093378
Step one: clone onodera
Step two: add an anime girl
Hope this helps, god bless
>>52093378
I'll describe it for them: Washed out, dull, passé
OPs set up is a bit boring, but its still high quality

Thank you both. I'll go fuck myself now.
>>52093378
Not OP but he's using wmutils. Image viewer is feh. Terminal is urxvt. Using w3mimgdisplay to display image in sysinfo & album covers above small lemonbar in the bottom right.
Linux is nice but Windows is rice
>>52093370
Appchan X is another alternative you don't mind using something other than 4chan X
>>52093398
Completely agree
>>52093433
Cute
>>52093422
I for one like the washed-out-ness. Please don't kill yourself.
>>52092865
Do the opposite of what it says to get a usable desktop. If it's terminal, it's cancer. Window manager? More like virginity manager.
Yours truly, long time ricer Kori, aka the real jordan.

Alright, was able to fix my problem and thought I'd post the solution here, in case the problem comes up again.
Go into the Developer Tools for Firefox, Web Console, and click the gear on the upper-right frame. On the right hand side of the lower frame is a keybindings option, just change it to Emacs, close the frame and restart the browser.
