If Linux allowed me to run some things natively I'd probably use it exclusively.

is this literally one of your top priorities? are you 12?
>>55101820
I don't care what OS you use because I'm not an autist, but what you want to do would take knowing what you're doing even in photoshop. You're using the wrong tool for the job. Although it could be done in the gimp, a drawing tool would be more practical.

No, not at all. In photoshop you press the shape button and draw a shape. Who knows what the fuck GIMP is doing when you try to draw a shape.

This. GIMP at least needs a "photoshop mode" preset until I might at least consider ever trying it again.

GIMP isn't as bad as you describe. It isn't for shapes though, that's why we have Inkscape. I made an iOS theme when I was like 15 with gimp only and I got $30 in donations.

I actually think I just realized why this faggot vi mode started ruining my days, gonna put an end to it tomorrow. zsh is very nice compared to busybox ash which I end up having to work a lot with.
>>55102211
I used to program open source software as a hobby. I discovered how much happier I was playing games online with the same friendly people daily. Programming was turning me into an isolated socially crippled autist who longed for the warmth of friends. Online friends are good enough for me. I probably would have killed myself a long time ago if I didn't get into gaming.

>>55102174
I simply use windows 10 as my main OS, and have a Linux VM set up.
I can do all my stuff in the Linux VM, my games won't run on linux anyways, so i found the Linux VM option to be the best of both worlds.
95% of my time i spend in the virtual machine, i don't even notice it anymore.

Nah man, that's completely different. Ctrl+R starts a history text search and bash supports it to, it's very handy.
>>55102142
Arch is the not the issues. It is a method that freedom is true, nothing is checked.
If any of you fucking cunts have even done maths then you would know the probability of running into a broken package.
Arch will have an outcome of something broken. It is up to you to fix it fast so it leaves near to no down time. This is where you notice that arch does not even teach you linux skills because you cannot even fucking rescue your systems from this issues.
Stop being a child and shut the fuck up and keep your arch issues to your self. Just because you suck at learning new things does not mean the tools you use are at all shit quality.

I am using windows on my tower and xubuntu on my laptop. Safe to say that I enjoy the speed xubuntu offers. Fucking faster then windows.
Who the fuck thought windows updates should be a consistent property of windows. Updates should be transparent and not fucking take bandwidth and shutdown time just to see it through.
