ITT: You have your GF's old EEE PC laying around, which

Mint, if you are a rookie.

>>58437350
Install Gentoo.

>>58437350
Gentoo and fuck off
This LE WHICH LE DISTRO XDD is the worst cancer on this fucking board

I throw it away and buy a cheap sub-$300 Chromebook like the Acer Chromebook 14 and run whatever I want on that instead.

>>58437350
Fedora

>>58437350
Debian or arch, with xfce

Arch and LXQt.

If you aren't afraid to recompile some, try DWM (from the suckless git dont use the binary otherwise you cant customize) also, install powertop and thermald. Make sure to set the powertop governer to powersave as intel cpus support this.

Mint MATE or XFCE
Ubuntu MATE
Xubuntu
Lubuntu

Maybe BunsenLabs?

If you are an autist you can also go with Arch I guess.

And then you post some nude pics of that slutty gf of yours, please.

you are actually asking for help from fucking linux community... Everybody will give you different answers, and most of them incorrect. If i had that PC i would probably go with:

systemd: Arch / Debian.
non-systemd: Devuan, Slackware.

I didnt mention Gentoo because you will need week to install it, can you imagine this cpu to compile xorg? Nope.

Mint is pretty slow on my 1008HA, I'd stay light weight with Lubuntu if I were you. Even Xubuntu was slow...

You run HD recovery software to see what the bitch had been up to before you got with her, if you're smart.

I run gentoo (obviously) but installed elementaryos on my gfs laptop because it's pretty got her and I don't have to send as much time setting it up

Tbh I have noticed screen tearing a lot with elementary, gotta look into that

Go X-less.

I'm a weird mix of normie and aspie. I was in a gear in college, have a hot gf, and love snorting addy and raging with the bros.

But I also love zoning out and learning new shit. Last night I learned how to use firejail to sandbox qutebrowser. Still have to figure out how to get it to save settings though, firejail wipes my config when I close out

Fedora is too resource intensive

>>58437350
max out the ram and then install debian with xfce
