Have I made a good decision, /g/? will I screw myself in the future with the lack of documentation compared with other distros?

You've got the wrong mindset for using linux.
The second something goes wrong you're going to be a frustrated mess.

The process of withdrawing from "consumer" accounts is much more expedient than it is to put them in.
It's the same reason it's way fuckin easier for the government to siphon trillions of dollars from the taxpayers than it is for them to pay it back in.
It's a logistical issue, combined with a banking system issue (it's a completely separate route to put money back into an account)

What's /g/'s experience with the commercial VPNs been like? Thinking of going with either PureVPN or IPVanish.
Enjoy having your door kicked down. After being remotely hacked and having your privacy violated of course. :)
>>57762108
So stick with self-VPNs then?
>>57762126
>self vpn
You do realize the whole point of vpn is a shared ID that is encrypted,and used by many user so as ot hide you
A self vpn would just have a single user being you making it easyer to find you

Im doing my own computer build and am entirely sick of Windows 10, am wondering what alternatives I have, if Windows 7 will still run applications in a few years (Thinking photoshop, CAD, AAA games) Or what options for Linux I have
TempleOS is a good OS for beginners. It's simple to use and understand
>>57761470
Install win7 and then Arch for dual boot
>Thinking photoshop, CAD, AAA games
None of these even run on Linux

Only pedophiles and terrorists use tor, shit for brains. Kill yourself.

It's a bug in Firefox, not Tor, you illiterate clown.
>>57761400
we told you firefox is trash, but you freecucks didn't listen.
firefox is the most bloated piece of human waste out there, everyone who thinks that it even remotely compares to chrome in speed, has obviously never used chrome.

that's a meme deal they are comparing the price, new, 5 years ago.
it's a standard price for those specs on the aftermarket. $5 $10 would be a good price

>Setup a Ubuntu KVM server and annotate the correct method of doing by writing on how to make virtual interfaces to allow the machines to connect to the outside.
>Next week get offered an internship and and a fully payed project where I'm to run a KVM server for 20 people coding a java monitoring program.

And yet I know not a single thing about KVM besides computer hardware and setting up OS's.
And I hate virtualization.
Should I take it or keep studying Electronics which is the love of my life.
Also post your stories.
20k a month is enough to turn my head op

>Should I take it or keep studying Electronics which is the love of my life.
why not both? Too time consuming?
If you're already earning in Euros they might be open for you to keep studying. No harm in asking. Might take you longer on a lighter academic load tho.

Are you saying they want you to run this server that you apparently already set up for free and afterwards you might get paid?
I'd promote the manager of this project. They are getting skilled (if naive) labor for free.
Is an Intel Celeron Nuc much more power hungry than an ARM like raspberry pi?
I consider to have either a Nuc (pic related) or a raspberry for a server and media center.
>>57761270
Yes, it uses about 10x more power. But 10x 2W doesn't sound too bad but it really adds up if it's constantly running.
Unless you need a Windows based server, just go with ARM.
NUC uses up to 36 watts while Pi can use under 10.

Where's the processor?
>>57761243
64GB of RAM means I'll probably never need to buy RAM again for the next 5-8 years.
Processor is 6850K. Which explains the rest of the shit I'm looking at.
I think you're a retarded faggot and should kill yourself.
Where do I go for everyday torrents now?
