Can your display handle wide gamut, /g/? Does this pic look like a solid red box to you, or do you see a logo inside?

I need help /g/. I'm not very tech savvy but recently I have begun exploring the deep web. I'm not doing anything illegal, however I would like to keep total anonymity. Some people have been telling me TAILS is flawed. Is this true? Are there any better alternatives? Also any advice/help is appreciated friends.

It's pretty OK, I installed Iceweasel and it runs fine, shitposted a bit and everything.

Couple of issues:

1) Pocketchip doesn't work right if you plug a USB keyboard and mouse into it I guess.

2) It's bare bones Linux, you have to install most everything yourself, but it's standard Debian so everything works as expected and it comes with apt of course. You have a terminal that's the console, and you can run X programs as expected, but for some reason switching away from the console and back makes the foreground program go away and I don't know how to fucking find it so I end up killing it from the console and feeling stupid.

3) Slow but it plays Youtube videos, slow framerate with anything but 320x200 or so, but full audio. There has to be a decoder or something onboard, Next Thing Inc™>3 include a link to the SoC docs on their site but that's about it.

4) General documentation and support is pretty bare, kind of a "here's a little cheapo thing go MAKE SHIT" type hipster half-finished quality, but the thing works.

5) Buttons are fucking brutally hard to push but are the metal snap-dome type rated for a MILLION FUCKING presses so I will probably make some kind of contraption to ease the interaction there.

6) Games, lots of games included, like Hug Arena, where you have to hug the bad guys, a Mario game where you can basically just shuffle around and smoke or ruminate about being Mario, many cool actual real games, has a game dev environment PICO-8 and access to (I think) all the games.

All in all, neat little thing, I will pop it out of the case and run it with an external monitor and see what happens and write a report if anybody really cares.

It's 2000 motherfucking 16
Why the fuck can't printers just work?
I just want the drivers, I don't want your fruity rainbow interface, I don't want fucking news, I don't want to subscribe to your god awful newsletters

I just want to hit that print button and watch a sheet of paper go in, and come out with whatever I wanted
