laptops will always be superior to desktops

- if there was a war, have fun plugging your desktop pc into a power outlet or powering it with a solar panel
- can just plug your laptop into a solar charger and keep recharging it
- you can use it away from civilization while desktop fags are getting bombed in their houses

Because laptops are portable, which is their whole point, they're superior to Desktops?

Couldn't come with better arguments?

all consumer electronics coming out are shit. Apple, Samsung, HTC, that chinese brand that copies Apple, Sony, all of them, and each of their softwares are also tailored for some and not for others, and this will always be the case.

So lets stop brandfagging like slaves and be productive. /g/ has changed a lot, before when gentoo was a light joke, no it wasn't a civil and justified community but at least there weren't trolls :( I want my safe space back. Somewhere nice people can converse after a good or bad day.

Previous thread: >>56647408
Welcome to /fglt/ - Friendly GNU/Linux Thread.
Users of all levels are welcome to ask questions about GNU/Linux and share their experiences.

*** Please be civil, notice the "Friendly" in every Friendly GNU/Linux Thread. ***

Before asking for help, please check our list of resources[*].

Take this quiz before asking for what distro to try: https://distrochooser.de/?l=2

If you would like to try out GNU/Linux you can do one of the following:
0) Install a GNU/Linux distribution of your choice in a Virtual Machine using VirtualBox or other software made for this puporse for safety purposes.
1) Use the Live ISO (if your distribution of choice has one) to boot directly into the GNU/Linux distribution without installing anything, that way, you can get to experience the GNU/Linux operating system without installing it.
2) Dual boot the GNU/Linux distribution of your choice along with Windows or macOS, this is recommended if you want to know more about the GNU/Linux operating system.
3) Go balls deep and replace everything with GNU/Linux.

Meet the /fglt/ team (not really):

Now I see what is actually wrong with you. You think python scripts are scripts written by the users and the users could simply update their scripts, but you're wrong. Python is a widly used language and many programs are written in it, packaged and in every distros repos. Don't expect all these people to "fix" something that shouldn't be fixed since it's the default way, just because Arch wants to link python to python3. If you still don't get why linking it to python3 is a bad idea, please read >>56649210 again.

So the devs update the scripts, which are then propagated to the users?
How can you be this retarded
You're blaming a DISTRO instead of UPSTREAM inadequacies

Explain why V2 exist then?

It was used as the introductory textbook for computer programming for 20 years on most universities around the world. All principles it teaches are valid still. Even more so with modern computers that do not have scarcity of resources. As a bonus it teaches you Scheme and you are able to glimpse what programming nirvana is through it.

Nope. I would argue it is better if you don't know shit but do follow the exercises if you can with Racket. There are also the original lectures on Jewtube.

How did you learn to program /g/?

After taking countless free courses (No bootcamps I live in a shithole) I grasp the basic concepts of abstracting and algorithms but I feel as if I haven't learned to enough of the language. Is studying just syntax an understood step that no one seems to be covering?

The speed comparisons are kind of pointless. The 6S was already faster than any Android device, of course the 7 will be better.

Water resistance test was neat though.

Is this the model to buy?

I'd choose this $175USD Redmeme or a used $125 Nexus 5.

Thoughts?

Apparently my HTC 10 has a decent AMP/DAC. Would this allow me to use over ear cans on it?
