Why do people use standart distros when rolling-release distros exist? Srsly, it's so wrong when you can't install a software because some faggot doesn't compile it for a new version of a distro. This why Arch is a bless.

yeah but then you update and your entire OS breaks and now you've got to try and fix it even though you're a user and not a programmer
>>
>>62364773
1. Almost doesn't happen when *you* don't fuck up your Gentoo stable.
2. Fixes to unbreak such problems almost always require just a litlle sysadmin monkey work, no programming.
3. Many mitigation techniques exist. Rollback to last nights lvm / btrfs / vm snapshot if you need to or whatever.
4. "Users" as in the undereducated masses can only handle Android at most.

>>62364773
Yes, standard-release has a tendency to break after upgrades, I agree. Doesn't happen on Arch tho.

If there ever comes a day where I have to stop using Windows 7, and lets be honest that's not going to happen for a very very long time, I'm switching to OSX. I would rather use OSX than Linux any day. Linux is NOT a desktop operating system and it will NEVER be a desktop operating system. Linux is for servers exclusively.
Keep your dirty X11 and pulseaudio and systemd away from my anime machine.

HDR is more similar how your eyes perceive differences in lighting, so I'd say yes.

Taking the CCNA exam next week and I'm wondering, do they combine all of the chapter exams into a final exam or will there be unique questions?
Also, can't you google the questions if you're efficient with alt tabbing? :^)

the ccna is a digital exam, the questions it gives you adjust to your weak points
when you get a question wrong, it will ask further related questions to make sure you actually know the subject material

I know this is bait, but seriously, I can't take anymore of this.
>>>/v/, either actually LEARN informatics or fuck off.
I'm sick, physically and emotionally sick, of your incessant shitposting.
If you don't understand a topic, don't comment on it.
Linux is the furthest away from being obsolete compared to the proprietary and bricked shitfest that is Macintosh software and hardware, or the banal and bloated botware of Micropenis.
If you want play your shitty AAA games (in which they don't even bother anymore), rather than actually contribute to intelligent technology related discussion? That's great.
But newsflash!
We have a containment board for that rubbish:

It has to be in color, and you have to be able to see contours.

Will a Threadripper x399 motherboard fit fine inside a Fractal Define R5 case or would I need a Full tower?

The reason why I'm asking is because the z97-a motherboard I currently have in my case just fits inside the define r5 case. Threadripper motherboards has a much larger socket, 8 RAM slots many PCIE lanes, it must be bigger, if it is then it can't fit

>>62363611
if I'm not mistaken the only E-ATX x399 board is the anus zenith, the rest are standard ATX
>>
>>62363722
X399-A Prime whatever is also E-ATX.
