Why is it so difficult to find an absolute beginner-friendly book/web guide to learn this language, especially on Linux? Their's, "C Programming Language," by Kernighan but that seems geared toward the novice with some sort of background. I just wanna get into hardware hacking and Arduino stuff.
Try looking up college course web pages. Lots CS101 type classes teach in C++, which will be easier to learn if you're an absolute beginner programmer and will make it easy to transition to pure C.
Just take your time and make sure you do exercises
1) K&R C book 2) Understanding and Using C Pointers - Reese 3) The C Preprocessor - free software foundation 4) The Standard C Library - Plauger
That should be about every resource you need. 2 picks up where 1 leaves off, and has great exercises. C Preprocessor demystifies a lot of the macro gore you'll come across.
If you have absolutely no skill in applying your mind to something you suck at, you'll never be good at anything desu.

This thread was posted a while back and it had a lot of good resources. I bookmarked all of it but sadly my hard drive took a turn for the worst and lost it all. Anyone have these links by chance?
Yes I know who Carl is and what he did. I don't care though, I watched his videos to learn about programming and I think he does a good job of explaining things

Some people like to watch videos when they are starting out.

C is literally LITERALLY the simplest mainstream language, how do you not get this
>Their's, "C Programming Language," by Kernighan but that seems geared toward the novice with some sort of background What the fuck do you mean? TCPL is literally brainlet tier. If you can't follow through it, you should give up computers and go flip burgers you worthless piece of scrap meat.
