I just turned 22, Ive read and practiced The Linux Command Line.
Im only now starting to get heavily interested in programming. Is it too late for me now, at 22?
How old were you when you started all this, and how far have you come?

All proprietary software is botnet. Install Gentoo and then use an open source torrent client such as Transmission or Deluge.

Great laptop.
Idk about their industrial stuff, server and printers.
>>
>>60449560
They went to shit when they began losing talent after that one woman wrecking company CEO took over.
Printers suck.
Laptops suck, but don't suck as much as acer.
Their pre-builts are locked down cancer.

>>60449560
I'm the only person on the planet that likes their laptops. Probably because I never leave the house with them and treat them like a fragile vase.

Is it completely open-source, or are there binary portions of it?
Can I run bash/x11 on it?
Will it use linux/BSD drivers?
Most importantly, can I run screenfetch/neofetch on it?

Literally any scripting language is better than python so how did it get so accepted?
Is it because it's dumbed down so retards and women flocked to it?

Most likely because the team is deploying changes. Wait for a bit and refresh the page. It should be mostly stable now.
News
>Nyaa works!
>Sukebei is in the process of being fixed
>Categories and searching works on master
>Filelists are implemented but need to be made hideable and tree view
>People are working on improving search and making it faster.
>Sukebei and nyaa accounts will be the same.
>New theme will be added.
>Daily db dumps possibly later today/tomorrow.
>Gravatar will be removed and replaced.
>Mascots will be customizable.

Do I really need this meme?
I have windows "defender" & Malwarebytes.
Windows 10, have the last updates
and I have a brain.
not downloading any shit or crap.
I never open single link from spam email or any bullshit
I don't believe any facebook "2017" scam or phishing.
most of my games I download from steam or IPT.
using qBittorrent & LibreOffice and a lot of open source software.
every scan I do with Malwarebytes I found out my PC is clean and nothing to worry about
maybe sometimes there's alert because of "trainer" (cheat for a game).
one day I download HitmanPro and he only found out that I have tracking cookies and nothing (he found out I have KMSpico but all good)
I had using also a laptop and I had their NOD32 internet security and he was fine for few month and then he became shit, killing memory and more.
I had a friend who using Bitdefender antivirus free and it works fine and great for him, I read many reviews about this antivirus and found a lot of great feedback from him.
but let's go back to really question here.
do I really need Antivirus?
since 2015 till now, I still don't have any antivirus.
(only windows "defender" & Malwarebytes)

Doesn't hurt to have. Can cause problems when accessing Your own files.

If you go to porno websites or shady sites, even by accident, I'd get an antivirus, anon. Better safe than sorry

Yes but you need a paid one like Kaspersky because it's much better and keeps you safer against stealth malware
