What are some of the best sciencebooks I should read over the years? One's that really explain the basics of every science well and make you understand the stuff way better than a HS-teacher does.
I'm looking to find one for:
- Chemistry
- Biochemistry

- (Linux)

why do you change distros so much, /g/? boredom?
>>58579235
because that would mean actually getting something done, it's more fun to tinker.
>>58579235
it is a rite of passage. most newbies believe distro=de
you are free to install any de in any distro. and obviously, when you reach arch, you simply stop distro hoping

Is the linux>windows meme just the result of shilling by all the massive Linux companies? I can't believe anyone thing would think this OS is amazing compared to Windows.

Why does /g/ care so much about "free" software and "botnets"? Not bait, I'm just legitimately confused why there's so much elitism on this board.

I am programming a calculator, not a microsoft's spycam.
There can be NO reason to implant a spyware module into a compiler, you can't justify it no matter how big of a brain dead Microsoft fanboy you are.

But why does it matter? Any information big companies want, they probably already have.
