>>539 >what distro of linux is the best for a beginner in linux? all of them

>>628 >Arch he actually uses systemd

>>539 as many have already said, linux mint is what i recommend to any beginner. it is my favorite "just werks" distro. i use the default cinnamon DE version on laptop for college and it does me just fine. it functions similar to windows, is based on debian (and is therefore stable), and comes with all the bells and whistles a noob would want from a distro. most games work fine on linux now as well so if you're a gaymer you'll have no issues as installing steam is either one command in the terminal or a few clicks in the software manager.

>>539 I am using gentoo although I wouldn't recommend it to a beginner. I suppose mint or ubuntu are the most user friendly distros out there.

>>472 qbittorrent is open source (you dont need to read the code though), find in what directory its looking for the icons and swap the picture out for something to your liking >I mean there are presets I saw somewhere sometime on the internetz You should be able to find that too unless they did some web-based bs, in that case there is a forum you can ask in: forum.qbittorrent.org

>>424 I want to learn Racket. It's sound so fun to craft your own meta-language I don't know what I'd use it for tho...

>>410 i think that may go against the rules anon...

>>411 Post a catbox pic link on the rizon chat.

>>412 heh

>>406 That's hot..

>>405 No but its still pretty thou.

>libpcap >libnet use those both, they are easy to program with and are very powerful

when I was a psychopathic 12 year old I spammed gore images on a porn forum. I used to frequent jihadi forums and other extremist websites to get my kicks. I was one evil little shit.

>>354 i tried to connect trough mobile data, workplace/college internet, the guy ip banned my entire country i think

>>354 >Can you guys browse textboard.org? It's not working for me as well

>>354 confirming also it seems to not be up.

does anyone know what happened to textboard.lol? I know the site was infested with underage memefrens by the latter half of its life but I was hoping to get back on to lurk older threads when I found out it didn't exist anymore also the first (and so far only) time I've been perma ip banned from anything was when I got auth on a cube 2 sauerbraten server and kicked a random guy on the server because I wanted the place to myself. after the server owner banned me for that I uninstalled and then reinstalled the game to see if that would unban me and it did absolutely nothing

phones are addicting, i prefer comfy computers (but I have no choice other than using the smartōphone >>300 it's not hard!! just expose yourself to new things in computer... try programming, installing other OSes, messing with the bios... go on, explore the world!!

C and Unix are the bread and butter of computing. Install a Linux or Unix operating system in Virtualbox, preferably a Debian disto (Linux Mint is a good choice) or FreeBSD (GhostBSD is good for absolute beginners). Don't jump into something like Gentoo, OpenBSD or Arch too soon. Then go through this book: https://www.linuxcommand.org/tlcl.php Just make sure you have a copy of your OS' manual as a handy reference. Once you've done that, pick the Scheme dialect of Lisp or C. Scheme is easier to learn and will teach you a lot about computing whereas C is hard but used in literally everything and you will have to learn it at some point. Which you do first is up to you. Lisp is a great choice for any beginner. For Scheme, go with Simply Scheme and then move on to SICP if you want to https://archive.org/details/SimplyScheme SICP https://mitp-content-server.mit.edu/books/content/sectbyfn/books_pres_0/6515/sicp.zip/index.html For C, just use the King book https://archive.org/details/c-programming-a-modern-approach-2nd-ed-c-89-c-99-king-by Then just do what >>314-san said, explore, try new things, learn the relevant skills you need to do whatever interests you.

>>316 i am a proud practitioner of COMPUTER

>I broke the pc by moving the cable inside the computer you sure that it's broken? anyway yeah just like poster number 36 said buy a USB adapter for hard drives and plug it to any working machine if you use windows it will appear as a disk F or something i don't know how alphabet works in microsoft but it should be easy and straightforward >>36

here are the ports needed but I don't know what it refers too which cables? and their names

>>154 On the right is SATA. On the left is Molex.

>>155 and what the other end of the cables must be? usb?

>>161 yup
