I'm tired of Elementary OS, it has a small community and It's bloated as fuck.

I like Arch, but I don't have the time to install it. I tried Antergos in Virtualbox, and it works well. However, debian with gnome it's pretty good. What should I use, /g/?

Dear /g/,

I'm currently using VLC to play videos and webms. Is there a better alternative? I don't need a ton of streaming or capture capability, I just want something to play videos and webm.

I checked the catalog and google is full of bad opinions from sites I don't trust and little facts.

I'm running Windows Botnet 10.

Just bought pic related. It's a misfit Shine. I know it syncs with my phone via bluetooth, but I can't find it when searching. Can a device be visible but also not? Can I sniff the activity from my phone when it syncs?

I have an old computer with 2GB RAM, Intel Atom 230 and 160GB HD.
It suffers to play youtube videos, but I feel I could use it to do something good. Any ideas?

I was thinking about torrent server, but I'd like to take a look at other ideas

The kids in my school beat me up and call me " hipster java loser " and tell me to " learn C/C++ and get into the big boy club " I cry every single night. But last night was special. James Gosling visted me tonight, he held me in his arms while I slept. So am I a hipster /G/?

Why aren't we talking about this?

"If you use Firefox, we recommend you temporarily switch browsers to Chrome, Safari or a non-firefox based browser that is secure until the Firefox dev team can release an update. The vulnerability allows an attacker to execute code on your Windows workstation. The exploit is in the wild, meaning it’s now public and every hacker on the planet has access to it. There is no fix at the time of this writing."

I need a new laptop
Required things:
>IPS display
>1080p+
>13-14 inches
>Good build quality
>Adequate processor
>SSD
>Slim and light
>Good battery
>No bigger hardware issues
>700 eur max

Not a requirement, but would be great
>Metal build
>Good GPU
>512+GB SSD

Avoid at all costs
>TN screen
>Cheap chinky plastic
>Unnecessary stuff that just add bulk, like CD drive, internal HDD, Ethernet port, Floppy drive

The only laptop I find so far that satisfies the requirements is a used Macbook Pro.

Does anyone else have this problem/know how to fix it or am I just a fucking idiot?

I was trying to set up an N64 controller w/ my PC (it's the only one I have atm) and everything was working fine until I started using the Xbox controller emulator. It worked with the 64 bit edition but not the 32 bit, and when I went back to the 64 bit edition it broke for the same fucking reason.

It says "Blah blah blah MSVCP120.dll is MISSING or CORRUPTED so this wont work xddddD"

Well? Am I alone?

or am I a stupid cunt?
