Can't you see the logical hole?
You use a known insecure OS with steam botnet and use tor for muh privacy?
Wtf is wrong with you? Can't you realize how dumb this is?

>>60327735
do you have a smartphone?
if you do, you are already on the botnet
if you dont, youre living in a cave which is even worse

Reinstall windows to remove any crapware

>>60327735
How is it insecure? I went with it because it's the most supported.

From experience, just the browser and an ad-blocker, and everything at some later point when I actually need it, which – independent of the OS used – often ends up about only about half of the software

>>60327830
>installing a minimal OS then shitting it up with bloat like terminator and sublime
I sincerely doubt you could install gentoo if you need to install something like gparted for drive management

>>60327837
*+… I used on the previous computer.

The correct answer is Chrome

>>60327871
I like to be 100% sure when it comes to partition management since I fucked up a a year or so ago and lost ~250gb files of various kind. I'm quite good with system administration, but that day left quite an impression on me. And I like sublime because it's the swiss-army-knife of editors, but I only use it to edit bigger projects. Single files are done with vim.
Terminator is in the list because I got comfortable with it. Do you have any recommendations? I want to be able to have a translucent background so I can put it over mpv to play nethack while watching movies.

Drivers, C++ Libraries, CCleaner, XP's Paint, a quick TakeOwnership.reg file, UXTheme and a nice Windows Vista Visual Theme.

-Drivers and Libraries: Optimal performance and avoiding getting errors when I execute X application on my OS.
-CCleaner: Fast and pretty light cleaning of the system and registry entries.
-XP's Paint: I just can't stand the mspaint of Windows 7/8.
-Take Ownership: Mainly to rename the mspaint of Windows 7/8 and have XP's named as "mspaint.exe".
-UXTheme: Custom visual styles.
-Windows Vista Theme: I fell in love for Windows Vista's appearence ever since I saw it, that's enough of a reason for me.

uBlock Origin, basic security measure.

total commander

Install Gentoo

(If used for desktop stuff) Install KDE and my most used programs (Steam, mocp, Konsole, zsh, etc.) from my binhost because why compile again?

(if used as a new server) Install various server programs, set up a chroot binhost again, copy over old server configs, kiss old server goodbye

You sound like my mom. She has a smartphone, can barely use it, with problems she always asks me or my brother. I instinctively know better what to do with her phone than she does (because they are made for idiots to use, but apparently late-middle-aged women are even worse). And don't get started with computers. Completely tech illiterate.
And then she has the gall to call me backwards because I still have a dumbphone because nobody has ever been able to give me one (1) good reason to get a smartphone.

For increased functionality? High speed internet, calculator, numerous useful apps at your finger tips, video calling, etc. Do you use Windows Me?

>>60337838
But you can do all that on your GPD Pocket under real Linux or even Windows if you are into that.

>But you can do all that on your GPD Pocket under real Linux or even Windows if you are into that.
Does it also make phone calls and text messages? If so, what's the difference between that and a smart phone?

>>60337890
For the phone calls and text messages you use your phone.

>>60337897
Well then you're carrying around two devices for the functionality of one, which is retarded.

>>60337915
The Pocket does computing tasks better than a standard smartphone. And a standard phone holds a charge way longer.

>computing tasks
Such as? What are you computing on-the-go that takes perceivable amounts of time?

>holds a charge
A battery is a battery. If you use a smartphone as you would a standard mobile phone they'll last very closely, both of which far outlast the necessary usage of the regular day away from home. This is also clearly a case of cherry-picking a pro of a standard phone usage and disregarding the cons that come with it.

You really seem like you're just grasping at straws.
