Looking just to have another running laptop in the house.
Its a Dell Inspiron 8600 with a nice 1280x1024 screen.
Specs:
120GB PATA HD
1GB RAM, 2GB max
Pentium M 1.4GHz
ATI 9600
I tried Arch Linux with Budgie, ran like shit. And so did LXDE. Ubuntu was taking 2 hours to install so I gave up.
Ran Windows XP fine. Now loading 7 on it just to have it working.
What would this thing run smooth? I'm thinking I make a coffee can directional antenna, and put it on the garage so I can use to to look up car manuals, and shit. Maybe stream music.

not even worth the time anymore, not even trolling
t400, x220, t420, t430 are all better options
t400 can be found for $80 and under nowadays with 4gb of ram

>>58395733
It runs 7 pretty decent. Imma find some ram, and make it work like this.
maybe reload some light version of 7 that netbooks used to have

I like the idea of Linux and free operating systems, however its current iteration leaves much to be desired.
The biggest issue is its user unfriendliness, no GUIs for options that ought to have them, and tons of bugs - in any distro really, even major ones like Ubuntu. Then there's the whole shitstorm about X, and the fact that it's unable to display stuff correctly. Though they say Wayland is on its way, which is great, but apparently its been on its way since 2013...
Moving on, there are issues with most major DE's - KDE 5 despite being touted as "stable" sofware, really ought to be in Beta, or better yet Alpha, it is crashing so much. Gnome is just absolute trash, it's incredibly inconvenient to use and I can't fathom who in their right mind would choose it as their DE of choice. Probably sociopaths.
Unity is a failure, not that Ubuntu cares, since they stubbornly keep trying to force it down on everyone's throats. The only more or less decent DE is Cinnamon, but it's heavy on the resources. Great.
I haven't tried Xfce, MATE personally, beyond a simple USB boot, but they appear to be rather primitive in customization, which I personally find deplorable -but each to his own right.
The available programs on Linux are what i'd generally call..lackluster, though there are a few hidden gems worth discovering and using on a daily basis. As for file browsers, the options are acceptable, but only just barely. They seem rather sluggish performance wise, especially compared to a good old Windows file explorer.
Last but not least Linux gaming is still pretty much nonexistent, which isn't entirely Linux's fault since CEO's choose which OS's they develop for, but still, this is a serious drawback - just like the buggy windows emulation.
Overall Linux has potential, with a bit of time - 5 or 10 years, hard work and cooperation, I can see it catching up to Windows. But until then.. it's a rather unpolished diamond.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

hello,
work in this field, I would like to remind users gnu+linux is not a consumer OS! it is used in specialized areas of computing i.e. supercomputers, enterprise, certain areas of software development, networking and storage management (servers).
there are reasons for this which can be loosely categorized by 'externally' and 'internally'. externally, gnu+machines are easier to maintain, cheaper and more reliable. internally, the l-kernel itself responds and is better suited to the tasks I previously mentioned.
notice that these tasks listed are generally not consumer oriented! linux is taking great steps and leaps in trying to penetrate that market but as of today and tomorrow won't be a consumer OS. If you are interested in this type OS, use XNU! It is a consumer friendly.
thank you for reading!!

I'm looking to pick up some DT770s, is there a discernible difference between the different impedance models?
Getting the 250 Ohm model would likely require a DAC/AMP as well, would this be a worthwhile investment over the 80 Ohm?
>>
Is the oppo ha-2 actually good? Powering "anything" and good overall quality?
It's a bit expensive compared to the other similar dac/amps on the market. But if you disregard the price?

You're doing it WRONG so do NOT buy one.
I tell you: 90+% of Raspberry PI's end up in a drawer or on a shelf or something like that.
There really are a lot of very cool things you can do with one.
Just wait and if you ever find that you need some interesting thing that can be built using a Raspberry PI (you actually need one for something) then get one.
Don't waste your money by just buying one with no idea what you will be needing it for because then the answer is Nothing.
