I've got archlinux mounted to a usb right now but looking at the installation guide I don't really understand whats happening at the "Partition the disk" section, am I supposed to understand whats happening?

What is the actual difference between Archlinux and Gentoo? What are the distributions meant for? Is Gentoo just a meme because its very hard to install as people say?

Is there any easy guide that explains what happens and how to install Archlinux? Don't really understand what im doing except copy+pasting commands to the shell

modern "hacking ethics" classes will just teach you a bunch of politically correct bullshit, and justify NSA spying on people and talk about how copying files is STEALING and is BAD and how you should be subservient to the government and just females in general.

Fuck all of that liberal garbage.

We need to get them out of our fucking country.

Ethical hacking should be learned from Edward Snowden, Julian Assange, Gottfried Svartholm, and that tranny bitch that released those documents, whatever they were.

The time to UNKEK is NOW.

I recently decided to do a permanent switch from proprietary software Windows 10 to free software GNU/Linux Kubuntu. I've been using it for about two weeks now and I am really in love with it. I would like to see more about GNU/Linux. KDE looks great, but I am still looking for trying out other nice-looking desktop environments. KDE sometimes glitches out and gets all screwy, which sometimes disappoints me. I am looking to try a new, cool distro.

Can you just pick a distro for me? I'm just so fucking undecided. I want to find the distro that gets shit done, looks super nice and doesn't shit itself with graphical bugs.

Distros I've tried:
- Gentoo (yes, I ran it for a while. I uninstalled it after a few days of use because I couldn't bear compiling things from source all the time. It was time consuming.)
- Fedora (not supported by my graphics card, results in terrible resolution)
- [UKLX]buntu (using Kubuntu right now. Uninstalled Ubuntu because Unity was too complicated; Xfce was boring and so was LXDE)
- Arch Linux (time spent fixing problems would rather be spent doing work)
- openSUSE (zypper is weird)
- CentOS (I didn't actually get much interest in this distro. It doesn't seem like there's anything that stands out about it.)
- Debian (software is old, using testing repos fucked my installation)
- Ubuntu MATE
- Linux Mint
- Tails
- Kali Linux


Distros I'm considering trying:
- Trisquel (might not support my graphics card which only runs well with proprietary drivers)
- Solus (some are suggesting this is malware)
- Elementary OS
- Antergos (sounds like the best option right now)
- ArchBang (not sure if this is still maintained)


Distros I will not use for daily things:
- Fedora
- Gentoo
- Slackware
- Kali Linux

Nice logic there bud.

Also good job noticing the super obvious false flag.

Why are people so desperate to shoehorn javascript where it shouldn't be? Why do you think it's necessary to fork an ENTIRE GODDAMN WEB BROWSER so you don't need to learn a real language like C or Python?

It's a nice even number

it's a multiple of 10
you can divide it by 5 evenly
it's not an odd number
it's an even number
it's not a prime number
it's not too big of a number, but it's not too small either

What's the last piece of tech that you bought that you almost immediately regretted?

I bought a Surface Pro and fucking hated everything about it. Gave it a week trying to adjust but just couldn't and returned it.

What about you? What did you regret buying? Extra points for buying something expensive.

Anything specific besides "it's shit"? Build quality and screen are just ambiguous. I mean, expect the keyboard to be shit since it's built into a screen cover.
