So you like being spied on by Microsoft and the NSA? You know Microsoft started ripping code from Windows 10 computers to reverse engineer them, so they know what they do ahead of time. Say you are trying to make a really strong VPN, they know all the source code.

Windows 10 is pretty though. It has a great color scheme, very modern and cool. I don't hate it, I have it, am using it right now. I just like my privacy.

Snow Leopard, easily. I'm still using it. Once it becomes obsolete I'll start using Linux maybe. I tried newer versions of Mac OS X and they just lost me. Been using Apple products since the 80s and I can't see myself buying another one. They turned into every other corporation, but with more expensive shit.
XP was good, Windows 7 is pretty close too.

Nice to see I'm not the last person left on /b/ who can order a beer without being carded.

I used CP/M as long as I could, until I couldn't find software for it any more. Fucking Uncle Bill deliberately killed it. It was a much better OS than M$-DOS. In the end I was forced to switch to M$-DOS against my will, the same way I'm a hostage to Windoze now.

Of the various Windoze, 2k was best. I'd still be using 2k, actually, if there was better driver support for the 64 bit version.

The OS I used for the longest stretch of time was Workbench 3.0

Fucking great OS.

Certainly not as a daily driver. As I lack the specific hardware I've been running it virtualized on a KVM box with RT patches for ages. Ya, it's a bunch of work getting it properly setup, and patching fucking everything is a plain, but I love the concept behind it; there's nothing quite like an IRC-like interface to everything. ACME is cool too. They also got the Windowing system right, while the rest of the world is still stuck with X11.

fuck canonical for so many reasons. I can't even remember why I hate them any more.
All my money goes to debian, mint, fsf, eff, and the linux foundation.
LMDE is where it's at.

We went from that would never happen, to that was a long time ago.

Goalposts moved.

Can anyone explain the aesthetics with arch linux.
What other operating system posses this aesthetic?
Does anyone els feel this?

Gentoo probably.
It's aesthetic should be entirely your own.
No premade distro can do exactly what you want it to.
If I understand correctly what you mean by aesthetic

Windows XP Pro SP3, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Bunsenlabs, Crunchbang (RIP).

Manjaro is somewhat based off of Arch. I like Manjaro very much, hence why I chose it for my triple boot >>719928141

no I think I'm just too retarded. I already tried Mint and I broke it more than once. Terminal is too difficult for my brain or I didn't learn the right way

>>719931306
That's ok man. Just keep at it!
The greatest skills take thousands of hours over many years to become proficient in, and a lifetime to master.
Lucky for you, learning your eay around the shell (of your choice) and the basic ins and outs of a Linux distro won't take nearly as long

and although that is true for the most part, its user friendly, and even more important...its lightweight and runs fast.

That triple boot pc i built/posted is only a duo core. Not even an i3. But it runs great.

Ive used Ubuntu, manjaro, puppy, MINT and Debian. Puppy is great for really outdated hardware. Light as hell and equally fast. Ubuntu and Debian tend to be great, but not exactly lightweight in speed. Wasnt impressed with Mint.
Manjaro was my first dive into something Arch based, and Im rather happy with it. Runs great, runs fast.

To each his own....you dont use a hammer to drive a screw, and likewise, you dont use a screwdriver to drive a nail.

FreeBSD

OSX 10.12.1 is what I use for my personal computing, and Linux Mint is also a great desktop OS

Windows 2000 Server edition

>>719939233
Yeah, I really like Mint.

Depends on the system. DSL and Puppy are great on old ass hardware. Not so much for brand new shit. I pretty much use Tails instead of these now days though for what I need to do with it.

Slax is temperamental, I'll give you that, but it's fun to use, or was, it's been a while.

I like this thread.

Anyone ever tried ReactOS? I had high hopes for it a few years ago but it was in super alpha stage and barely ran so I gave up on it. I just checked the site and it looks like it's still alpha but still being actively developed. Well, looks like I'll be busy for a couple hours checking it out.

in that order. All other operating systems are absolute garbage.

No OpenBSD?

>>719940843
No idea. I was curious about AROS, however, since you couldn't play old Amiga games on it (out of the box) I didn't bother spending time on it.

>>719941748
windows 98 and windows 2000 were also good OSes

>>719942398
That's cool. I like these quirky one-off oses.
>>719942813
You should check out ReactOS then, I'm d/l it now, it's a Windows clone written from scratch. Basically what Linux is to Unix.

do you even read? >>719934847

i already said win2k was based.....98 wont run on 2.1+ghz though. And thats why it sucks donkey balls, despite being x86 amd not supporting even remotely modern dx.

Hey everybody, look at me, I typed "Puppy" before someone else said it was cool.

>>719944162
Not sure, it's been a while and I'm still d/l. Gonna vm it of course. But I'm pretty sure since it's trying to mimic windows and use applications designed for windows, if there is an inherent vulnerability, it will most likely need to be patched, the os code most likely is already, need to check the forums.

>>719930854
for people who are doing sensitive stuff on the internet, buying things off black markets, sites like silk road, you need security and anonymity and windows isn't the OS for that.
