Welcome to /flt/ - Friendly Linux Thread!
Users of all levels are welcome to ask questions about Linux and share their experiences.
Before you faggots start spamming "euhhehhu it's Ganoo/Linucks praise the almighty rms who eats from thy foot", I think that we should at least stop forcing people to install Gentoo and install Ubuntu then gradually level up to the /fglt/
*** Please be civil, PLEASE FUCKING NOTICE THE "FRIENDLY" in every Friendly Linux Thread ***
Before asking for help, please check our list of resources.
If you would like to try out Linux you can do one of the following:
0) Install a Linux distribution of your choice in a Virtual Machine.
1) Use a live image and to boot directly into the Linux distribution without installing anything.
2) Dual boot the Linux distribution of your choice along with Windows or macOS.
3) Go balls deep and replace everything with Linux.

Anyone know if Xubuntu uses systemd? I can't find any info on this and their IRC is asleep
>>61812171
AFAIK -Everything- uses systemd except Gentoo and some of its derivatives, Slackware, and the ultra-lightweight stuff like Puppy Linux and Tiny Core. Debian lets you opt out. I don't think anybody else lets you opt out, but I might be wrong about that.
Use virtualization to try distros out if you're curious about them.
>>61812297
thanks for this, so during thr install process debian asks you if you want systemd? is this correct?

IM THE OP NOW I GUESS EDITION
highly recommend anyone learn assembly even if you're just doing capture the flags to have fun. it's vitally important and really fun to be able to debug stuff and look inside compiled executables that aren't supposed to be looked inside of
>>61789088
do you think python is a language worth learning?
>>61789088
anyone who programs a compiled language should know assembly
if you can't debug your code what's the point of being a programmer

So is there something on the horizon for the poorfag who needs a gpu? Even without miners raising the price of cards, there aren't any budget options being developed today, aside from maybe the new load of nvidia crap. What are some good budget GPU's?
Need to know this if I ryzen 7 me

not enough low budget cards? wtf
>>61839227
It seems like a dumb move to buy these since they're a bit old now. Vega, for example, is running a new architechture, but it's for high end. I want new budget cards.

Why does /g/ unironically always false flag almost everything as a botnet?
>>61837768
In the world of software, it is wise to treat everything as the enemy until proven otherwise.
>>61837768
You can't prove proprietary software isn't a botnet

When will AMD realise that releasing Bulldozer over and over again isn't going to work? Consumers these days aren't dumb enough to fall for the 'moar coars iz betur' argument, the Threadripper release today has been marked by nothing but disappointment and damage control.

Yes they are
