install gentoo

Install Gentoo

Do a fresh uninstall of Ubuntu.

sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /

Start learning the details of bash shell (string expansion, pipes, redirects, file system organization, etc) and the command line tools. Specifically, for the tools:

-sed
-awk
-tr
-history (actually, I think this a bash command)
-grep
-find
-kill
-ps

Doing this right will also mean getting decent at regular expressions. Also, learn enough vi, or just just nano, to make quick edits and write short scripts.

If you get proficient, in just the above, everything you do will take less time. In fact, you’ll be able to do lots of tasks quickly; some that you might not have considered doing before.

now buy a mac you dumb neet cuck

cunts

1) open the terminal
2) type sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
You can thank me later

use it for a couple weeks and then go back to windows once you realize linux is a meme and not actually useful and you need a program that doesn't support linux

spend 3 days setting it up to your liking then either :
A: find out a certain program or service you use isn't available on linux, so uninstall and back to windows

b: you fuck around with some terminal commands while troubleshooting why something isn't working, it fucks your whole system and now it won't boot, time to install Windows.

c: you miss gayming or need a windows only program so you decide to dual boot, every time you boot to windows you get an overwhelming feeling of joy that everything just werks and you start using Linux less and less till you forget you even had it installed. eventually you need to free up some disk space so you delete that old Linux partition that you never use.

>need a program that doesn’t support linux
There is exactly ONE piece of commerical software that anyone could possible need that only runs on windows:

Excel

(no, the Mac version doesn’t count since it’s not as capable).

overwrite with windows partion
wait till 18.04 LTS

>everything just werks
That would be a Mac.

>There is exactly ONE piece of commerical software that anyone could possible need that only runs on windows
Unless you're planning on doing any image/video editing or music production and want to use professional software rather than broken garbage.

Davinci resolve

photoshop and using it with wine is not an actual thing, nor in a vm not enough vram

Those all run on Macs.

See

Why dont you install MATE then?

It looks like shit

So true

/thread

There's software for all this on Linux.

Troll harder.

apt install build-essential

make an update/upgrade script

sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade

put the dockbar thingie back where it goes you fucking degenerate

i'm waiting for 18.04.1, running 16.04.1 now

apt-get dist-upgrade you mongrel, apt is for sissies :p

Blackmagicdesign hardware always gets me hard

Now kys

kek

Pffft, that's a good one. Everything, meaning the handful of Apple made products? Or the handful of shitty software?

Make the theme and icons just right for your tastes. There's a noobslab PPA with a bunch of them available.
Make a couple of terminal profiles to suit your system theme and tastes.

If you have old games, see if they work in Playonlinux.

Oh and do whatever actual work you usually do using Firefox/chrome, libreoffice, programming, etc.
If you need VMs try Gnome-Boxes or VirtManager, they can be better than virtualbox.

Revel in the fact you have a stable, convenient, and mostly free system.

Start using it.
Expand only if needed.
Set it and forget it.
Enjoy.

Start writing drivers for it. No one else is.

I mean, it's one click on Windows

>>type weird shit in the terminal
You type weird shit in the reply boxes on Sup Forums. What the fuck is so difficult about doing it anywhere else?

What if I fuck up the OS?

lol

>mostly free system
>mostly
What

meanwhile arch
yaourt -S popcorntime
so comfy
inb4 >yaourt

browse Sup Forums

Download some porn.

Yes, mostly free. Has a blobby kernel, software center with proprietary stuff

For fully free, you should check out Debian without enabling the nonfree repo, Trisquel, Parabola, and GuixSD.

I fucking hate yaourt I always forgot how to spell it

yaourt or yoaurt

holy shit

cower -d popcorntime
cd popcorntime/
makepkg -sic


More sane

yeah thats why i use pacaur desu

damn this hit close to home

You done fucked up user, you should've installed gentoo.

Now honest tip, go get Pale Moon as your browser, do some fiddling with security features to install adnauseam, replace your main UI with Openbox, and for completion sake, make sure to get moebuntu.

savor that sweet, sweet compiz compositing
because its going to be replaced by its down syndrome cousin, Mutter.

underrated post

Remove unity
Install cinnamon
Install mint tools.

alias yoaurt='yaourt'

>shouldhave ibstalled gentoo
yes :^)
>now honest tip
Oh :'(
>palemoon
oh yes :^)))
>adnauseam
ahh :^\
>openbox
Yuck D^:
>moebuntu
Phew
what a rollercoaster ride.

change those ugly icons

install fedora

Install gnome

don't do this

you install another distro, the life of true linux dekstop user

uninstall and install manjaro or arch

upgrade it to win 10

uncuck yourself from proprietary software and blobs shipped with ubuntu
also install gentoo

rm -rf /*

Try FreeBSD, it might not work, but at least you are not bound by any commie licensing.

maybe he is not homosexual

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install mpv screenfetch

apt>apt-get

Install Mint instead

Remember it like this:

The "yao" in "yaoi",
plus the "urt" in "joghurt".

--> yaourt

Get TimeShift, its like system restore for Linux. Also, grab a spare USB and throw systemrescuecd on there, in case you somehow corrupt GRUB or whatever. Saved my ass one time when I accidentally used gparted on the wrong partition.

Just download popcorn-time.zip from their website, unzip it and run the binary. Easy as fuck. doesn't need any terminal action.

Unless you work in design, parts fabrication, music production, or just like the occasional video game.

uninstall ubuntu and install arch

install it again.

Samefagging this hard

but 3 commands vs 1 command, defeated my friend

...

All me.

Lies, it was me

here's your reply, buddy

It was ME all along.
