I don't remember how many times I created this thread on /qa/, why doesn't gook moot care about us? It was a totally different sub culture, also we didn't need to stay in exposure of GPU wars, wallpaper threads.

Please bring it back.

Bringing /prog/ back won't bring the same users back. It's possible the majority of them left 4chan entirely.

Perhaps it's time for you to leave /g/.

Why are linux users such smug self-satisfied knobs?

>As I tried out distributions, I didn't find the one that fits me best. Necessity is the mother of all inventions, and so I concluded that I would create my own distribution. By then I was comfy with aptitude and apt-get, and other terminal commands like ls, wget, cd, and many others. So, I did what every guru does and learned how to use Bash and make scripts.

>With my Bash skills in hand and the vast Internet for guidance, I used a great program called Ubuntu-Builder that set up everything and dropped it into a chrooted environment. Using my scripting-fu, I set out to create Sol-OS.

I honestly don't get linux shills.

I've been using linux since 2007ish. Keep trying it every year or so.
If you want to do any decent modifications on Linux prepare to have a new fucking part-time job.

Will never forget the clusterfuck that was getting my usb wifi to work. Took maybe 12 terminal commands and multiple system file edits.

Linux desktop is only good if you don't change ANYTHING, or have enough time and patience to fix shit and make it cozy.

Still love having it in my VM so I can do bash and shit, even within windows. PCI passthrough GPU too. Cozy.

I used linux on THinkpad until the BIOS got rooted by an OTA update. Then I realized that nothing is secure and I gave up caring about computers.

You probably fucked it and it isn't bootable. Or you're trying to read it as USB-FDD when you should be trying to read it as USB-HDD. Or you fucked it in some other way. Go fix your problem instead of bitching about it here.

Okay, it's gone up a dollar, but this is still tempting. Is this way overkill just for chatting/gaming? I do occasional RiffTrax-ish stuff with friends, but that's as much use as it would likely see in addition to the chat/gaming.

The look has nothing to do with the distro newfag. Linux distros are like dolls that you dress with clothes (DEs), and then you just look at them because you can't do shit with them.

how hard would it be to make a physically based rendering system that utilizes the principles of absorption/emmission/scattering to define materials.

i think that has to do with pathtracing, which is populating a bunch of rays whereas this is just assigning parameters that you still have to create artificially for scattering and such. it's just that they're REAL parameters not just specularity or quadratic attenuation.
