Who is in the wrong here?
You. You should use a different OS (Linux, OSX, *BSD)

Which plugin(s) are/is better?
uBlock Origin
uBlock
or Adblock Plus
h.a.n.o
>>57951592
uBlock is the official uBlock project. uBlock Origin is just some dumb faggot's fork. With uBlock, you get support from the O F F I C I A L uBlock development team.
More importantly, don't forget to donate!

Why do people still use this poor excuse of a browser?

Works fine for me. Just reloaded all my (36) tabs and CPU spiked to ~60% for one second, dropped to ~20% the next and then finally went back to nearly 0%. Fans were unaffected.
I'm a complete beginner to Linux and i want to know which is the best distro to use ?
Ubuntu 16.10
>>57951401
All of them. And use each for several months each.
After that you will be qualified to voice an opinion in threads like this one.
>>57951401
PCLinuxOS (easier) or Slackware (less easy, but more pure Linux experience). Avoid systemd (i.e. most "major" distros at this point), don't let the cucks who have given in to it convince you otherwise.
How is this extension useful?
ublock and that extension that blocks google-analytics already exist. All this does is make me have to click a bunch of shit every time i open a new website
I think it says a lot about the modern web that there's now extensions that actually remove functionality.
>>57951304
It increases browser security, reduces trackability, and gives you control over what your browser loads
If it's not worth the effort for you then don't use it

name a better looking case

Looks nice yes, but rear IO accessability is utter shit
Looks better and much cheaper.
Fucking do your research.
why
>>57951036
Because people like making new (gnu/)linux distros.
>>57951036
Because people hate setting up the same shit each time they reinstall their OS
I have my own version of xUbuntu that adds in a few more features like psensors
>>57951036
Another op who thinks everyone should work and jack off with each other make one bad distro?
How do I become an actual programmer?
All I have experience with is making CRUD software. I can do it in pretty much any language, but I feel at this point like I'm not a real programmer and just a code monkey.
What should I start studying? Or what would you study?
I feel like such a talentless hack
read a book
>>57950980
It's less about studying and more about doing.
Pick a specialization or two you find interesting. Could be OS kernels, machine learning, 3D graphics, anything really – just make sure it's something that interests you. Then, seek out open source code relating that subject. Pick it apart, get a feel for it. Try to make a rudimentary version of your own. Rinse and repeat. Each time you'll be notably better and eventually you'll approach a decent level of competency.
Studying is good as a supplement, but alone all it'll do is teach you inapplicable theory. That's fine if you want to be a computer scientist, but if you want to be a real engineer/programmer you're going to have to be able to build shit, and as it turns out the only way to learn how to build anything is to actually build the damned thing.
TLDR: Put down the books, analyze what's been built, and build something yourself. There's no teacher like real experience.

Anyone with first-hand experience wearing Momentum 2.0? Is the sound/build quality worth the price tag and having to look like a hipster (strictly for outside use) or should I just get some IEM, if so, which?
While at it, what's a good portable player with a reasonable price tag? FiiO X1/3? Something with great battery life and sound quality, and no, I'm not going to glue a portable DAC to it or anything autistic of the sort.
