You can't actually carry it in a pocket unless you have a big jacket with a big breast pocket. Youll need a bag. Only women and homos carry small bags. Men do briefcases, messenger bags, backpacks. These are big enough for a proper laptop 12 inches or bigger. They are superior.

>>22945873
im not sure its worth the hassle and expense desu. for anything you might want to do while traveling a cheap smart phone will do it. i spent years on the road before any of this stuff was around (no smart phones even) so there were times when i had nothing but a cd player (heavy, bad on battries), an mp3 player with 1gb memory (light, great on battery, could get 2x the amount of stuff on converting to WMA format) a 32gb ipod touch (good for almost everything) a dell mini 9 (heavier but fantastic for when staying in one place for an extended period) and then various android smart phones (all at least as useful as the ipod touch though easier to move files on and off).

theres really not much you cant do on a smart phone these days, unless you really really need to plug into something using usb...but even phones can have connecters for that if you look.

Apple doesn't even make their own shit. Their parts come from other companies, mainly Samsung. MacBooks and Mac Pro desktops are utter pieces of over-priced shit. In fact, the only good thing about Apple devices is what is provided by Samsung. You can build your own PC and it will actually be able to do more than the shitty closed-source MacOS ever could. Just goes to show how dumb some of these fucking academic institutions are when it comes to technology. "Oh, it has a shining Apple logo on it, it must be better." Then they realize that most of their proprietary applications won't even work on the fucking thing. Like, okay? You didn't test it before hand? You just thought it would work because it is an Apple device? Not to mention, having to do a refresh every half decade after spending millions on these fucking things. What a waste.

GhostBSD comes with the XFCE desktop and others if you want to take the easy route. A lot of people use it for that reason. FreeBSD is a good one as well, you just have to compile everything if you want a desktop. Not hard to do though. I have not really messed with OpenBSD.

>>22945805 (OP)
You definitely have to consider the hardware as well. I recommend buying a device that is specifically designed to run Linux. I believe there were some for PureOS (Edward Snowden's device of choice for persistence) and Linux Mint as well. There is MintBox if you are into minicomputers. Obviously, Linux Mint is the default distro.

That's good. I was just saying that a lot of people will buy an older Dell, HP, or even an intel Macbook, then install Linux. While it will work, it's not ideal. Though, a lot of these high end laptops that have hardware that is supported by Linux are quite pricey.

I was just speaking in general terms. It's better to start with compatible hardware and hardware that isn't going to cause security issues. Otherwise, you could end up pulling your hair out with some distros. They will work, but you will have to do more work and deal with driver problems and things like that.

You retards try to make yourselves sound smart...but....yous r just retards.

>>22945919
Depends on the distro, but linux as a whole has a compatible distro for any hardware. It was designed that way and grew through the cracks organically. Its origins were for maximal compatibility for servers and hardware between end devices so different OSs and devices could communicate. Its why it was open sourced, so people could build different things and not have to rely on one ecosystem. Which at this point only apple is still doing.

Redpill me on "hardware". Who with a life gives a shit about this. If I wanted to do anything real I'd get a second-hand off the ads and do [redacted].

Yeah, that is fact. I blame a lot of the manufacturers for most of this. It was the reason Linus gave NVIDIA the middle finger. I hear it has gotten better now, but I do not have any NVIDIA hardware on mine (and haven't for a long time) so, not sure.

For me, I would rather buy something with hardware that works with Linux out of the box. If you can afford it, that is the best way to go. Just my take on it. To each their own.

>>22945808
>I have Linux on my Nintendo DSi it doesn't mean you can actually do anything with it.
what can't you do with linux? there is more actual useful software on linux than on windows which doesn't even have a package manager. there is a reason most software devs prefer linux or mac.

>>22945930
That be cool, but its the opensource communities job to make itself compatable with proprietary devices/hardware, not the other way around. If it secret drivers and shit thats the problem, someone needs to reverse engineer it. I know theres plenty of tools for speculating a binary to source code nowindays, with AI someone needs to make an automated de-obfuscation program for binaries. Then closed source will be done, and companies will have to innovate instead of sucking customers dry through lock in.

Not a huge fan of Windows, but they are certainly way ahead of Apple as far as enterprise devices. Apple devices are horrible in an enterprise environment. You basically need a separate MDM to manage the fucking things. At the place I worked for previously, they were moving to In-Tune for Windows and JAMF for Apple devices. The hardware on these Apple devices was constantly failing. It was a complete shit show. Not to mention end users "oh, I spilled coffee on my Macbook. Can I get another one?" No you dipshit.

Pretty based. Ive been considering doing something like this. But i already do use lunix. (currently arch btw, 4 days in) but ive been on mint beforehand for about 4 years now.

I would not use that shit on my home computer if you paid me at this point.

>>22945948
Yeah, the only people in my life that I put on Apple are those I don't trust with computers. They have a problem, it's nice to be able to send them to the Genius Bar instead of deal with them.
I've been using Linux for 15 years. I know my way around it better than I know my way around Windows, so to be clear I wasn't hating on it. But Windows has made a lot of strides since I stopped using it 20 years ago (yeah, I jumped on board of Linux from the Apple ecosystem) and it's very useable - WSL is good, Powershell is good, shit mostly just works, all the software is there, etc. And it's nice as a change of pace.

Yeah, I worked in an education institution. These asshats seemed to think that anything with an Apple logo was better. Even when you prove to them that Apple devices are not even designed with the enterprise in mind in the first place. Apple gears their market towards BYOD and personal use.

These dumb asses also had to purchase multiple adapters for ever single fucking Macbook we had. Why? Because everything in the classroom setting was still on USB-A. Well, obviously Apple removed USB-A ports, so you only had two USB-C ports. That means a docking station, keyboard, mouse, and compatibility with slide advances. Well, what happens when you plug all of the shit in? The Macbook cannot handle this many devices on a single port and starts overheating, fucking up, and the slide advancer doesn't get enough range from the Macbook. Like I said, it was a shit show. This could have easily been solved with Windows laptops.

>Linux


I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

It was awful. The sad part about all of this is the PR paranoia associated with their fuck ups. The technicians got most of the blame when shit was fucked up. I'm like... It's not my fault that you decided to buy these fucking shitty Macbooks. "I need help connecting my Macbook to the projector." Yeah, of course you do. Then you fix it, only for them to come to you again and again because they are expected to learn a different method. When they had a Windows device it was just make sure everything is plugged in and it was good to go. No issues. I agree. FUCK APPLE

Well, there is Red Hat. I'm familiar with CentOS and Fedora, but I have never actually worked in a Red Hat environment before. Maybe someone in here who has can tell us if it is a good as Windows?

Active directory is really what's holding linux back from enterprise adoption. AD will NEVER be adopted by Linux because of the constant changes and fragmented software.

Linux has always been a mainframe OS

same tier of shit that the pinephone is. if you must consoom specs, just buy a pixel and put graphene on it. if you're TI tier schizo, just leave your phone at home.

>>22945987
What about Zentyal?
https://www.zentyal.com/

>>22945988
I should have clarified. GROUP POLICY. AD for basic account management already works. The fine grained control over experience with group policy will never be implemented. At most you can limit file access on a network drive to certain groups or users.

>>22945990
Ah yeah, I forgot about Debian KEK.

>>22945992
TY for the link. I'll have to mess with it. Even has some group policy features maybe.

>>22945992
Oh fuck it's a subscription service per user. Fuck that. Up to 75 users and it costs MORE than windows server after a few years. Fu k that.

>>22945994
Debian's pretty much my jam when I'm using Linux. Nice and sturdy and, if I'm doing shit in Windows for a while, easy to boot back into with minimum updates. I like having something reliable to fallback on.
I used to love Slackware, which is still around but gets to be a bit hands-on, especially given that the last "release" was a few years ago. It will always have a place in my heart.

Qubes OS. Been running it primarily, daily, for more than two years without much trouble. If you have the ability to use the terminal at a basic level, to install applications and make changes to config files, then you are ready for Qubes OS. Qubes even gives you the ability to run Microdick Wangblows in virtuo, with the added bonus of isolating VPN or darknet routers (or ideally Wangblows just stays totally offline). I can do AI in Qubes with no troubles, just be sure to have at least 2 GPUs with least powerful as primary in EFI for dom0 use. Without a hardware or Xen hack, I am nearly immune to glowies from remote exploits.

(pic: My ricing of Qubes. Yes, ninetysix workspaces bitches!)

>can now check the time on my minicomputer without it having to compile all my activities and send it to the feds
>got LeoCAD running on DSi (UI still buggy) and have used it to design a few lego models
>no ads, no pressure to pay money to access software, no bloatware, no ZOG newsflashes being put on my desktop when I specifically turned off the feature
Using windows now feels like having a retarded Indian slave fulfilling your requests and the slave is retarded and does mostly whatever it feels like while barely working to handle your commands.
Linux feels like I'm using a machine again and I love it. Give me a 256mb chip over a possessed demon retard any day please.

Debian is great. Very stable. The only complaint I have ever heard about is the fact that it is rather bare bones. I mean, it isn't that hard to install whatever you need on Debian. Pretty much as easy as it is on Ubuntu, so not sure why that is a thing. I actually like that even better because I'm not getting a bloated OS and I can choose what I want to install.

Anyone have any experience with this kind of setup?

You're in the coffee shop. You've got a full desktop computer with a 5090 in the backback powered by a car batteries. You have an OLED display that's both smaller and has more accurate colors than the top of the line MacBook. Your actual monitor and keyboard take up less space too. If you needed, you could render pictures of your AI gf completely offline.

>>22945966
I once installed a Debian GNU on a old pal's iMAC. Couldn't get a desktop environment happening though. I'm no computer whiz. I might have been if I hadn't pickled my brain with booze! Ah well... no ragrates.

I bought one of these. I lost the4 charger to it so now I can't charge it anymore.

>>22946008
Got a similar setup (picrel).

>>22946004
I've heard a lot about Qubes. My understanding is that you better have a high end machine if you are going to run it. It is rather resource dependent for obvious reasons. That said, I like fucking around and exploring different things. I have a hunger for knowledge when it comes to Linux, so I am sure I will give it a try at some point.

>>22946233
honestly it doesn't really matter for most uses. theres apps for whatever you want to do on a phone - web, torrents, ftp, file transfer, whatever. they are cheap and good on batteries. if you want some tiny little laptop then sure go ahead. for almost every single person traveling or whatever, there will be no functional difference

>>22946258
>for almost every single person traveling or whatever, there will be no functional difference
yeah except one is a combination 360' camera/microphone/tracking device which is always on since it mysteriously takes 3 minutes to boot
laptops aren't necessarily that

if the fucking things didn't artificially take 3 minutes to boot, it would be convenient to turn them completely on and off, but i don't think the companies want you doing that, for advertising/notification reasons if nothing else

>>22946264
i guess if you have no sim card theres less chance of that happening. my cheapo walmart smart phone boots in about 30 seconds. maybe they're watching you right now.

>>22946273
>maybe they're watching you right now.
that's such a fucking outdated strawman viewpoint
this isn't the 1970s where skinny dudes in suits are listening over wiretaps, except digital
it's INDUSTRIAL surveillance
everyone is lazy fucks including glowies, most of it is automated
>i guess if you have no sim card theres less chance of that happening. my cheapo walmart smart phone boots in about 30 seconds.
that is based

im not saying these things cant access cell networks without a simcard but if it was uploading lots of data like video and sound it would be very obvious in terms of battery use. especially if its kept off for extended periods. could every phone be uploading this kind of info constantly? i guess....but whats the point? i bet it can be done to a target if someone wants to listen in bad enough though.

you can monitor all network traffic anyway if you want to. there are ways, especially if you root the device. and if we're getting this concerned then you can't really trust any laptop with a net connection either.

>>22946294
>could every phone be uploading this kind of info constantly? i guess....but whats the point? i bet it can be done to a target if someone wants to listen in bad enough though.
you lack imagination

>>22946300
maybe you have a bit too much

>>22946258
Nah. I can't install a basic terminal or run Linux without root, despite it already running the Linux kernel.

Also other Anon is right they are mega spying devices.

>>22946489
im not saying they aren't. i also did mention requiring root for some stuff

>>22946488
i know i don't
there's no such thing as too much, the fact that we have computers and automobiles and flying machines & shit proves that
controlling factions of the world like glowies are playing as close to creative mode as you can get, they don't have the same limitations or helplesness we do

>>22946489
i think you actually can run a terminal emulator atleast, even without root
idk what the limits are or how that works, though

>>22946496
then dont have any devices anon. you'll feel better about things perhaps. i'll just keep on using cheap smart phones that can do more than i could have dreamed about 20 years ago and not worry too much about anyone collecting my worthless data through secret cell tower connections that dont need a sim card or for my phone to be turned on.

>>22946498
Yes you can run them, but termux and proot don't work properly without root, so you can't actually run xorg properly.

>>22946513
i will too
it's not about your worthless data or my worthless data, just think about the scale of the whole thing
a single cell in a body is worthless the same way your data is worthless
imagine if you had billions of simple little surveillance nodes, and what you could do by centralizing and collating everything they pick up
it's a gay example, but remember in the dark knight when they used all the cellphones in the city to map out environments with echolocation
i know that's not feasible, but similar things could be, like triangulating the source of a sound by the microphones from several nearby phones & their known locations
there's been machine learning crap which can classify a bird call in the middle of a noisy audio stream, that's been around for over six years
all of it could be automated

my point is there is ABSOLUTELY motivation to collect this shit, beyond fucking "gangstalking" or whatever these faggots talk about

>>22946521
termux doesn't work without root?

>>22946529
sure, i get all that anon. but i just use my cheapo smart phone to read book on, maybe a watch a movie in a tent sometimes. its not on a network, no simcard, off most of the time and when its on im quietly reading cheap fiction for the most part., or in the woods in a tent. i offer nothing. now, if i was somehow in a position to be of interest to people id care a lot more about security because 100% phones can be full compromised with little effort.

>>22946538
>now, if i was somehow in a position to be of interest to people id care a lot more about security because 100% phones can be full compromised with little effort.
at this point, if you only STARTED to be careful once you were in a position of interest, you'd probably be caught easily
we're really naked before power at this point, but everyone is comfortable and the power is lazy & not that centralized, so it's easy not to notice

>>22946538
that does sound comfy though
i really should go hiking or something
i have a kobo ereader, it's kinda nice
i lived in the woods when i was younger, in oklahoma and texas, but i don't go out much lately

>>22946543
>you'd probably be caught easily
yeah fair enough. you'd definitely want to keep it in mind if you had any ambitions to get into politics or whatever. or just dont have any dirt on you. the worst anyone could expose about me is that i like lesbian fisting videos. oh no, that'll open me up to blackmail fore sure lol

>>22946548
i like those e-ink readers. very good on batteries for long trips. though lots of those have network and cell access too. i remember seeing kindles back in 2011 that could do basic email and stuff.

>>22946552
i remember thjose
i always wondered what demographic would use a kindle for email and web browsing, lol
i'm sure someone uses those features
some subset of upper class people with corporate jobs maybe? idk

>>22946533
It does, yes. Features are limited.

>>22946580
that's weird termux wouldn't work without root
doesn't seem like it should need root permission for what it does
everyhthing is a bloated clusterfuck now so idk

there could be a good reason as well, i guess
neither would surprise me

>>22946566
for travelers those kindles were pretty damn good back then. you could read on the things for many weeks on one charge and in a pinch could snag your emails in places where you cant find internet access computers etc. i met some guys were using them up in the mountains on the border between krgyzstan and china waiting for the damn crossing to open up.

all in one lightweight little package. i went around with an ipod touch 32gb. now that really was a giant leap forward for me in those days, after years of only dreaming about such small and capable computers. with a jailbreak those thigns were almost like a full going laptop.
