Thread 512490359

I can't do shit with my computer anymore.

>>512490359 (OP)
the great thing about linux is the built in IQ filter

>>512490359 (OP)
I'm sorry you're too retarded to use Linux

>>512490458
Linux-fags would defend it if their operating system exclusively used a base-17 numeral system because it's high IQ

>>512490359 (OP)
Linux is for esoteric types who generally identify as furries, LGBTQ+ or suffer from some sort of neurodevelopmental disorder and stick their thumbs up their ass on the daily. Basically, 4chan mods.

I mean, you could make Ctrl+C copy... Most niggas don't even know the difference between raw and cooked terminal inputs though.

Anyway, hint for the n00bz on /pol/: stty intr

>>512490359 (OP)
Get a Mac. Best of both GUI and UNIX worlds. Not so much gaming, but games are gay anyway.

>>512490359 (OP)
First, this never actually happened.
Second, if it did, it's a good thing.
Also, you deserve this.

Skill issue. Literally babby-tier OS nowadays, even Arch.

>>512490571
if it kept stupid niggers away yea

>>512490716
mac is dogshit and you are a faggot to suggest it

>>512490571
>>512490594
>t. glowies who want to spy on people
>>512490716
Mac is even worse than windows for privacy.

So far I've tried
>Mint: Had too many issues. Considering it's meant to be boring but work, I had loads of issues with it. Fan speeds being one.
>Ubuntu: No thanks
>Fedora: Felt slick. But then the weather didnt work, apparently they "upgraded" it and now is has about 10 locations in it worldwide. "Dude who needs weather, download this instead"
>Pop OS: My favourite, it worked, but looks childlike. Going to try it when the cosmic version arrives

What distro should I try next

>>512490716
This is true, but only if you are literally gay.

>>512490904
I'm guessing you're using Nvidia, or not using LTS kernels.

Alright, /g/fag crossposter here. I will provide free tech support and I won't be a dick like other autistic linuxfags. What's going on, what can't you do?

>>512490904
Install Gentoo

>>512490959
Pretty annoying though, that fan speed were a problem on mint, and not on anything else

>>512490904
Arch has been for working for me for years without any issues.

>>512490836
Mac is real UNIX. Not hand me down Flea Market "Unix-like". Why do you think Chinamen and Indians like it so much? Their whole lives is a flea market aesthetic.

>>512490904
Idk nigga, you may be dumber than LeBron... Damn whitey do be dumb and shiet.

>>512491047
I can't breath. I think it has to do with the melanin in my skin.

>>512491164
>Mac is real UNIX
Untrue. macOS was its own thing until 10, which was when they rebased themselves on FreeBSD, a UNIX-like OS that the Open Group refuses to certify for "not being real UNIX."
As of MacOS 11, all FreeBSD code has been stripped out, too, replaced by their own coreutils and kernel.
There is zero authentic UNIX code in macOS. They paid money for their certification so they could use it in advertising, this is open information.

Using Linux feels very lonely knowing Darpinder Singh is no longer observing my porn habits.

Why do faggix users make an operating system their whole personality?

>>512491106
Did you try different kernels, or read the notes? There's always a kernel that will cause some issue with a particular hardware combination. Also your BIOS settings can affect things, especially settings like TPM.

>>512490359 (OP)
use mint, its ez mode

>>512491355
Most of them are autistic obsessive. Some of us know how to be autistic in a non-obsessive way i.e. we have diverse enough interests to have some semblance of a wider personality.
This thread is about Linux though, so, expect people to talk about Linux.

>>512491214
Well that certainly narrows the problem down.
>>512490904
Seriously though probably give EndeavorOS Plasma a spin.

there`s always dual booting

>>512490359 (OP)
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring 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.

>>512490904
Distro ricing is GAY. They all use the same user utilities and kernel.

All that matters I'd desktop environment and the programs you install.

>>512491464
>we/I have diverse enough interests
No one believes you.

>>512490904
>the weather didnt work, apparently they "upgraded" it and now is has about 10 locations in it worldwide.
>but looks childlike
Nigger what? These are handled by your desktop environment, not your operating system. You can change these at will.
The main difference between distros for an every day user is how packages are managed (i.e. how you install and update shit)

>>512490594
Sometimes it's all of them combined.

>>512491355
cause you cant actually use it for anything other than keeping yourself busy. 99% of using linux consists of wiping and starting over with a slightly different version, fucking with drivers for a couple days and then doing it all over again cause you read about a new version that will for sure fill the giant gaping hole inside of you this time around

>>512490359 (OP)
I doubt you do anything important with your pc

>>512491836
I use Arch btw

>>512491760
I believe him because I too have a diverse array of interests, skills, and thoughts.

that would actually be impressive since all existing systems are base 2. quantum computers don't really exist yet.

>>512491729
I kinda like trying loads of distros

>>512491784
I'm new. The weather has hardly any locations lol I haven't ventured into changing desktop environments yet. Thought about trying KDE plasma with arch. Kinda liked pop os though..

Ubuntu on Dell XPS, ive no worries

>>512490904
How long did you stick with each one? You should try sticking with each one until you iron out any issues you're having, it's how you learn. Eventually you'll be experienced enough to use any of them with just a few changes. You'll know what's happening and why.

I dual-booted Windows and Pop for just over a year, then dual booted Mint and Manjaro for about 2 years before finally moving to Arch.

>>512492278
I use Arch with KDE, for over a decade. KDE makes customizing shit extremely easy. I am fairly certain you can install KDE on pop if you like it already

I’m using a Raspberry Pi 4, thinking about upgrading but no rush

>>512490458
Not always though. SystemD is proof of that.

>>512490359 (OP)
Just go back to windows or mac. You can actually have fun on your computer unless you enjoy surfing the file system.

>>512491127
that is completely impossible, i dont believe you are running arch. a bot wrote that.

linux is for people who have a life span of 200 years

>>512490904
Manjaro, its like Arch for casuals (I confess Im using it since 2020 precisely because of that) and everything works out of the box, including 99% of all games. Sometimes better than on windows.
Occasionally there is a little oopsie during updates but thats manageable.
>>512491164
>Mac is real UNIX.
You missspelled HOMOSEX, common typo

Then add them? Use a different weather program? Use a web browser?

Gnome is best BTW. You need to install tweaks to add minimize and maximize buttons though. Also live without a system tray.

>>512490359 (OP)
niggers are too stupid for linux.
stick with your FaggotOS95 or whatever retards use these days.

>>512490359 (OP)
good, I just quit fucking windows one day like 2 years ago, I've been getting the hang of linux, gnu/debian/unix stuff
it's sometimes REALLY WEIRD, like I sometimes can't find files in the exact damn folder I downloaded them to
what the fuck, why is it using space if it isn't in it's place?
but it works, and at least I can rest easy that I pirated the distro, so no money from me fucking MINT fags

>>512492636
Last time there was a little oppsie with windows updates millions of businesses lost billions and were inoperative for many days, that never happened with linux.

>>512492489
>linux is for people who have a life span of 200 years
You are such an aidsridden catamite by the way.
My first Linux was Suse 8.2 which I bought, yes BOUGHT in Saturn in Germany. Came with two big books inside the box.
You know how many issues I had with this, 20 years ago?
Zero!

Linux has been better than Windows since Windows ME came out

>>512492445
I used to defend systemd but systemd-resolved.service has been failing for me out of nowhere since yesterday
Now I can't defend it anymore.

>>512492458
It isn't 2008 anymore. Your PC will run Windows programs/games faster using Linux. You'll experience rock solid stability as well as better compatibility with legacy software that no longer runs on Windows, since Wine has better legacy support. Since Wine translates calls on the fly, you can LARP as Windows better and faster than Windows can be Windows, because it is full of bloat. You can run multiple instances of things no problem, as they are isolated. You have much better alt-tab stability, and can treat your entire system and all running programs like tabs in a browser. Such are the benefits of not spending resources on telemetry so you can be datamined in real time like a good goy.

Compare system calls between the two. These graphs are old, it's even worse now. Mac is just gay, by the way.

>>512492602
No it works just fine idk why people make a big deal over it.

>>512490359 (OP)
protip everyone who sings Linux's praises never actually uses it

>>512492822
Give Voidlinux a try. Its systemd-free and independent of other distros.

>>512492445
That's just glowniggers compromising the system. Along with UEFI, secure boot, and Intel ME/ AMD PSP. Look up Intel minix. They have entire subsystems to remotely install hacks.

Linux just helps protect you from dragnet PC spying that's built into windows. Glowniggers can still hack you remotely.

>>512492877
This. It's basically Mint on steroids as far as user experience goes. It isn't even a challenge to install anymore, the playing field has been leveled.

>>512490359 (OP)
I hate LeBron James now

>>512492688
Yeah if you're a fucking retard. I've only had Linux have a hard crash and need reinstall 6+ years ago. A few years ago I broke the package manager, but that was my fault for manually installing shit, instead of adding a repo.

>>512490904
neofetch!
pop os, when you're both a pedostuprist AND retarded macfag furry!
very nice!
next up BAZZITE!!!
let's not only rape children, let's troon them out too!

>>512492964
yes and no. There have been fixes out for a long time to resolve the minix issue.

Look up Management Engine removal or something like that.

>>512492762
>I can't find stuff to where I downloaded it
User error, bad OS install, or bad hardware.
>>512492810
For the most part. Linux isn't made for ricing.

>>512491164
>real UNIX in 2025
funny

>>512492943
I know but they love niggers so a hard pass. And I already fixed it. lol

>>512491106
What stops you from installing fancontrol on mint?

>>512491760
I've been all over the board the past week talking about various things, brother. Look for the memeflag.

>>512493113
Yeah, but it only works on some systems. If you completely disable ME, the CPU refuses to boot. System 76 ships linux systems with ME disabled.

Linux for niggers might be more up to your speed.

>>512493217
Didnt like 95% of all companies do that in 2020?
As long as it does not influences their direction long term with things like cuck of conduct etc, I think they should be forgiven.
Voidlinux is, just looking at its qualities as a distro, quite good.

Trust me bro its worth it. You can still use windows until you finish the tutorial. Just use vm's to follow the tutorial so you don't have to mess with the dual boot scenario.

why does everyone want to use an obscure distro that they will never see implemented in a data center?
No wonder there are so many anons complaining about not being able to get a job

>>512492810

How do you fags fall for shill campaigns on /pol/? They are always so transparent.

I bet you shaved your beard a few years ago when shills were anti-beard right as broad scope facial recognition came online.

Beardchads will be able to do at least one undercover mission in the technodystopia.

>>512493616

>>512490716
MAC OS gets worse every year. KDE Plasma 6 blows it out the water

>>512494075
No it's not. Linux Mint is the same experience as windows, max/min/close buttons in same spot, dashboard and start menu in same spot. By far the easiest for beginner and experienced. Ubuntu is terrible simply because they gave it a gay name and put the dashboard on the left and crippled any settings that put it at bottom.

>>512492601
manjaro is a good idea until it fails (it will). just use EndeavourOS to get a proper Arch install

>>512494361
Arch sucks

Priority for most ppl is user base and help. When I Google a problem on Mint I have the answer right there because 60% of the market is Mint/Ubuntu. Arch manjar doesn't have that plus everything breaks all the time.

>>512494287
>>512494349
Mint is very reliable and a great starter Linux for most people.

>>512491649
I tried to post this pasta yesterday and the system flagged it as spam, I had to cut half of it out. How'd you get away with it?

>>512493905
you're going to use whatever opsec supports as a desktop. No shop is going to allow you to build and maintain your own desktop OS in 2025
You might as well use the OS you're going to need to tweak in a job so you learn how it works.
Look how many people are still crying about systemd because they're still on the learning curve. They should be learning that stuff on their home hobby box so they can lead their teams at work.
I worked in a jeet shop that refused to learn systemd. Our networking was completely niggerrigged for years before I finally got them to start using current tech for installs.

>>512494472

>>512494564
>astra is only supported by the kgb

>>512494472
>>512494564
you can basically use whatever works for you but I recommend people to stay away from ubuntu based distros because they go against linux and GNU as a whole. They have replaced core GNU components of kernel and used more restrictive licensing. If you have to use it then go with Debian. Otherwise Arch will do just fine.

>>512494553
Bruh I use Arch, I'm way too familiar with how systemd works given how often I use it to set up timers and services.

>>512494523
heh... get on my level

>>512494162
>>512494349
my 65 year old female neighbour uses it without problems lol. i have also installed it on my room mates stationary computer and hasnt had problems so far

>>512494723
Red OS is better

>>512495313
linux is very stable once you get it installed fully. the key is choosing a distro that works well with yoru hardware - this isn't hard to figure out. otherwise just avoid distros that break shit on the regular. Mint is extremely reliable and a good place for people new to linux. Once you know your way around there are other options. I think KDE is fantastic and that is my main priority.

I have a flashdrive with Pop OS on it just waiting to be installed.
I fully expect some major Windows vulnerability within the next couple of years due to the H1B JEET push.
Only problem is that I'm a big gaymer, so I haven't made the switch yet

>>512494553
Only retards thought systemd was a huge change that took a lot of effort to learn.

>>512495617
Well hopefully you lose that at some point, because PoopOS is poop.

yeah they're on the HFCS man, it's hard to get pure, but you can get it watered down or baked into cakes if you really want to, though you'll have to drink a gallon of soda, 3 moka sweet starbucks, or some monster cans, and eat a bunch of sweetrolls or cinnabuns

You can just shave anywhere in a few seconds.

>>512490594
Imagine being such a jew.

Can someone explain to me like I'm a 5yo nog why someone would use Linux distros?? I had a QRD operating my trunas server and Plex app and successfully troubleshooted issues in the past via terminal, and I'm interest to know more, but I'm not sure why I would change OS tho cause I need to gayme and use the internet

this is why the internet is so fucking gay nowadays.

Gentoo is what you want.
Devs are based, at worst apolitical (which means far right by today standard). They removed the default cuck "help feed poor children in Uganda" ad in vanilla Vim and give you absolute complete freedom to install whatever the fuck you want.
Because they have to deal with actually building upstream packages and making the build process easy to end users who also have to build them in every possible configuration, they naturally came to hate rust and other soidev bloated crap.
The only better OS I could conceivably think of is OpenBSD but unfortunately the hardware support kind of sucks. I'll make the switch when Linux inevitably degenerates into a bloated cluster fuck of rust crates, cmake/ninja build system and nigger/troon friendly code of conduct.

>>512496897
That makes sense. Helps with becoming a shaved man instead of a big bearded one fairly quickly after a report or similar. However, i still think it is better to keep staying clean shaven, if that was your default for a decade, and you have never weared a beard in front of cameras before. Which somewhat defeat the original purpose of my reply because you've clearly addressed ex-beardchads who got shaven.
