I have a new laptop and the resolution is getting on my tits. I've mananged to get the system fonts and firefox fonts to be a reasonable size but I'm still coming across programs which use their own size and are far too small. I don't know what to do, I have tried to change the resolution but the next size down looks fucking awful.

So I'm about to do a fresh install of kubuntu, but I know for sure I will want to play around with another distro or two, namely arch, but maybe debian centos and MAYBE gentoo some months down the track when I'm not a total retard.
if I want these distros to be on a partition and not just run on a VM, how much space should I save for them to play around with? Would say 20gig be plenty?

Can /g/ enlighten me on the plus and cons of the two languages? for instance:
1) which is better for job? (especially Europe)
2) which teaches you better programming habits?
3) which is more enjoyable to program in?
4) which is better to write Android games or apps in? (you can do that natively now with Xamarin and Unity right?)
5) does C# turn you into a Microshill robot?

Reminder to fork CDE, the fucking devs are scamming people into submitting bugs in MIT license and never releasing fixes.
Don't believe me? Ask yourself when was the last time you had CDE in your repository, or you could even install the thing.
