What are some Linux distros that aren't already compromised by the NSA/CIA/FBI?
>>59713674
Linux sold out a long time ago, kiddo. BSD is the last bastion of Freedom.
Does it even matter if you run any CPU made after 2008?
>>59713674
GNU/HURD running on a 80486.
sup /g/ from about 5~6 years there started to be a lot of "GAMING" motherboards and other computer components.
The thing is they are shit! Literal shit worse then the stock back in the day.
Where can I get good hardware that is not scam level of TEH GAMER shit?
I want to avoid this TEH GAYMER shit!
Also post your GAYMER hardware horror stories.
Mine are:
>GAYMER pro mouse
Literally unusable brick and awkward to hold. Overpriced.
>GAYMER Razer Nostromo
Jesus fuck! Literally gives you carpal tunnel within minutes of using this shit! Has gold plated USB end!!!!! WTF!!! Overpriced!!!!
ProTip: Gold plated USB is the sign that its complete shit.
Also who even wants this(gold plated USB)?!
>GAYMEN motherboard
(I wanted to avoid this shit, looked the best in specks so got it, however was reluctant)
Comes with killer network card.
Best part, no drivers for windows!
On GNU+loonix its detected (figure this one out)
On windows you need to install their driver bundle that installs killer network manager who sends all your data to the manufacturer.
Trying to get the driver without the killer network manager is ultra hard.
Why is GAYMEN shit so bad?
Best part avoid everything with the following
>GAIMER in name
>Gold plated USB
However these motherboards are everywhere now.
got a gaymer mobo (MSI gaming 7) cheap from a magazine reviewer guy i know. is actually pretty good (but way overpriced at launch)
OP, you just realized?
>>59713602
No.
I wanted to ask people what to do about it.
Also vent my frustration with this cancer.
How did you do it, /g/?
Corrupted their databases with SQL.
>>59713365
I sent a prostitute and asked her to piss in their server after she was done fucking them.
>>59713365
After installing the gentoo, there's nothing that can't be done
>having a taskbar
>>59713298
i see no taskbar
I like my taskbar like I like your mother, on the bottom.
If iOS is an insecure NSA backdoored piece of shit compromised by the CIA then why does the US Army use it?
Ever hear of momentum?
>>59713273
Because they're on the same side, retard.
That's why they use it, dum-dum
Why do retards still use Snapchat?
It uses more battery than Facebook, Netflix and YouTube combined with light usage on Android
Why use this crap?
Who fucking cares.
Because a lot of women use it, plus I kinda like it.
>>59713249
Because they are retards
Why use a textboard?
No shitty image macros/memes and 100% srs discussion.
That's nice. Retard.
>>59713162
Thanks, guy.
just use textchan.com
What is the endgame of data mining and spying on users though platforms such as windows 10?
Who buys the data and what is it used for?
they want to see what programs crash on people so they know what to focus resources on, nefarious!
Machine learning for Google to enhance products and services. Pure evil obviously.
>>59712999
>>59713038
Such a fuckin hooplah just to make some shitty products no one uses marginally better?
Surely you jest
Why aren't you using Brave at least part time? It's like ungoogled Chromium with built in super adblock. It's in Beta now and it's available on everything. Totally open source.
https://www.brave.com/
>>59712943
Why should I use brave when Opera and Chrome are so much better?
Because I can't customise it
>>59712954
It's not though. Brave is faster because it blocks all ads. Chrome is slower because it is just a platform for ads.
>>59712963
Just load Chrome extensions.
>ThinkPad finally comes in
>unbox it in the living room

Maybe you should change your diaper then, you fucking autistic retard.
Do uneven bezels bother you?
>>59712900
no. Shitty small images on threads that are shit a bit.
No, I'm not mentally retarded.
>>59712900
What a piece of crap.
>sitting in my bedroom eating tendies
>mummy wheels in a whiteboard
>offers me the sum of all primes under two million in good boy points if I can write a program finding them
>write it in LISP
Prove it OP. Show us your big boy code
>>59713573
He just wrote it in MEMES, coward.
>>59712722
tendies.find(sumofallprimes)
How do I prevent employers from finding out I was locked up in a mental hospital for two months?
I have a two year (and growing) gap in my work history because of this.

I am applying to programming jobs.
anybody actually code like this?
>>59712640
>C
oh god no
GNU is too radically left wing and their code is horrible. Some Kernel/low level devs should start a project to write rewrite all the software that GNU has written from scratch (c compiler, glibc, and other system tools) and release under a sensible license like MIT.
How about you retards just use Windows since your shit OS isn't any more safe or secure.
Personally, I think the GPL is on the right track at least, MIT licenses make it too easy for code to become proprietary; there's a specific reason why the FSF wrote the GPL the way they did and didn't make it a ``do whatever you want" license. Some of the GNU code is ridiculous though, they should adopt the OTBS style and stop adding so much bloat to trivial utilities, as well as being more open to using languages other than Lisp and C. Writing utilities in C was fine in the 1970s, as there was nothing that was more productive in efficient, but now that we have better options we should reserve C for kernels and low-level libraries and use higher-level languages where doing so will enhance productivity.
