You use a baby distro. It’s nothing to brag about.
I don't even use Manjaro kek, but I would unironically use it over you joke distro for mentally challenged individuals.
Samuel Russell
You use Manjaro. Manjaro is a baby distro for retards to embarrassed to use Ubuntu. You are not special. You have no reason to feel proud for being to stupid to copy and paste a handful of commands and install proper arch. You are a brainlet like all Manjaro users.
Lincoln Richardson
You wipe your ass with your bare hands, user? You know, toilet paper is bloat.

how many IQ points i gain by setting up my clock on a command line, user?
Sebastian Smith
>surprised the best rolling release distro is also the most popular >surprised he gets called out for being smug about using a baby distro, when he uses a baby distro
Fagjaro users have literally no reasoning skills, huh? Come to think of it that’s probably why they use such a shitty baby distro.
Ayden Murphy
none, just copy everything you see on the wiki
Joseph Rivera
awww cute wittle arch babby need his daipy changey
Quite a few actually. Case in point, remember that time the Manjaro devs forgot to update the SSL certs on their website. And when people complained they claimed it was user error and there wasn’t a problem.
And then their eventual ‘fix’ was just telling their users to set their system clocks back a month.
So I guess time keeping is out of reach for Manjaro fags. What would you expect from a baby distro?
Manjaro is a baby distro for people to stupid to install arch.
Nicholas Powell
If you are too stupid to install Arch then you shouldn't be allowed to use computers.
James Cooper
When you fuck up copypasting the OP, you know you're a fuckup.
Austin Hughes
imagine being this mad at Arch users just because you lack the small amount of brain power on following instructions and typing a few commands.
Ian Cooper
yea that's right you're a big boy you installed arch
Jayden Cruz
is there a way to get the terminal to automatically do something when I start up?
Christopher Lewis
Are there any alternatives to Fedora which are similarly up to date (i.e. not quite bleeding edge, but not outdated either) and also just werk?
Jaxson Campbell
You use Manjaro. Why do you think you can be sarcastic to anyone?
Alexander Smith
Ex: termite -e "do something"
Jason Torres
I would counter with if you use Manjaro you probably can’t use a computer.
Eli Rodriguez
and you use arch, which is a babby's first distro imagine being this angery when confronted with the truth
Ryder Bennett
Just make a bash script with your favorite text editor, make it executable and make it run on startup.
Matthew Hughes
So you're confirming that both Arch and Manjaro are easy to use. Because they're both the same in functionality.
Isaac Brooks
Is it worth using powertop on desktops and things like the raspberry pi?
Ryan Sullivan
If you copy and paste commands from the arch wiki without knowing what you're doing, you're no better than the average n00buntu user.
Grayson Jackson

Manjaro is babies first distro. You are superior to no one. Your baby distro is based on Arch, and all it’s users are people too stupid to install it’s progenitor.
Noah Perry
>manjaro and arch have the same functionality
This is what Manjaro babies actually believe.
Jaxson Reyes
I honestly don't get it. Arch is nothing more than running a pacstrap script to install all the packages required to operate. It's no more complicated than installing Debian. I've installed both and Arch is far simpler.
I stuck with Debian because it's so snappy. Applications instantly pop up. In Arch, there was always a second or two delay like I was on Windows.
Gabriel Jones
>browse r/unixporn long enough to think using arch makes you smarter YIKES based archbabbies
Christopher Turner
C?
Gabriel Scott
>been usin Manjaro long enough to literally become removed from reality
Manjaro is baby arch. It’s not better at anything and you only use it because you’re a brainlet who couldn’t install arch.
Jacob Smith
>manjaro sucks! >no, arch sucks! >no, manjaro is for babies! >well manjaro is just arch so that means arch is also for babies! >but arch makes you use the command line whereas manjaro doesn't because it's for double-babies!
Brody Ross
It's literally the same base packages with a slightly different repository but very much identical.
Post some facts that it's not or shut the fuck up already. This is why you have no friends and punch holes in walls.
I agree that the Manjaro baby is a retard but please keep the friendly GNU/Linux thread friendly, yes even to retards that are buttmad against Arch.
Isaac Green
>Manjaro babies think they're on the same level as Arch users
My sides
Connor Perry
I don't use either of them.
Robert Bennett

>Nobody uses Gnome anymore.
I used to think it was ok until a few years ago when they moved everything over to a bar on the left, and if you had more than one terminal it crammed them all into one so that you had to click a few times to find a specific one, and in the same update they added the gay animation where the icons sorta bounced a little when they moved. at that point I decided to let the reddit/microsofties/macfags or whoever was in charge of gnome have their shit, and moved to xfce.
that and they got rid of the old maximize/minimize icons and changed to the idiotic red green and yellow lights. I'd lay 100:1 odds that shit came from mac or windows. I kinda understand red means stop and green means go, but what the fuck does it mean to "caution" a window. jesus.
>I kinda understand red means stop and green means go, but what the fuck does it mean to "caution" a window. jesus. >hmm >i wonder what the exact same order has been since the fucking 70's >i wonder what that middle icon could be >i mean its only 3 options > and its in the same order Stop being autistic

>her windows only have three buttons OMG you're basically using Redmondware at this point
Anthony Kelly
Actually I’m a debian user, and it’s konsole transparency I overlayed over a Chinese cartoon. I just thought the manjarofag was annoying.
>If you copy and paste I did not say copy and paste, I said following instructions and typing a few commands. Obviously if you copy paste everything you will fuckup. Those who copy paste are brainlets
Ayden Baker
I couldnt use KDE on stretch because it was too buggy im surprised that you find it usable
Blake Ross
This is what coping looks anons. This idiot probably failed at some point to install Arch because he's a brainlet. But of course he cannot accept that reality, so he tried so convince himself that Arch is shit and goes around insulting Arch to cope with the fact that he simply is too stupid for it. It's much easier to say that Arch is shit rather than come to terms with reality that he actually has a 2 digit IQ and can't follow simple instructions from a wiki
Elijah Martinez
Had to sort a few things out with xdotool but now it’s completely stable.

Constantly checking every keypress to determine if it's a keybind is more bloat than a GTK button though.
Sebastian Murphy
Make your own global keybinds? and stop being a pussy ass bitch?
Christian Jenkins
Why you dont want to use fedora if it satisfies you?
Kevin Richardson
Has nothing to do with processing. It still checks every keypress to check if it's a keybind whether it's a default or you set your own.
The system checks every key you pressed to see if it has a modifier on it So using shift is bloat? Oh shit i used a symbol, oh shit i did it again. Fuck i cant stop using symbols. Is that bloat?(fuck i did it again)
If you have a 100hz cpu and using modifiers on your system HALTS it, you might want to fucking upgrade Anything else isnt a performance factor at all
Joseph Gray
Thinking about installing Windows to avoid having to deal with all this shit desu
Brody King
nobody cares, die
Carter Martinez
Oh shit I have windows buttons enabled, oh shit i did it again. Fuck i cant stop using opening windows. Is that bloat?(fuck i did it again)
If you have a 100hz cpu and drawing 3 GTK buttons on your system HALTS it, you might want to fucking upgrade Anything else isnt a performance factor at all

Thomas Howard

Evan Williams
You post means nothing to the conversation. Your retarded logic is that pressing global keybinds some how slows the system down, when the xserver processes it within picoseconds of pressing the keybind,even on a 100hz processor
Brody Moore

Hi /fglt/, winfag with ayymd gpu here Is Lubuntu 18.10 worth installing? It looks quite nice and only takes around 300 MB of RAM. Considering that I'm limited to 4GB it's a blessing for me.
Dylan Jenkins
Is Fedora 29 Xfce still buggy?
Grayson Moore
Pacman > apt in my opinion, so install Arch or Manjaro.
Austin Sanders
This is not 100% linux related, but my guess is that someone in here is likely to use Kdenlive. I have auto mask following an Object and now I want to auto zoom on it. How would I accomplish this
I'm way too used to apt now And no, I have no desire to deal with setting up Arch or Manjaro's bloat.
Lincoln Lee
I had the displeasure of installing Windows 10 on my aunt's laptop. All the fucking background downloading, and slow as fuck process got me to thinking. If you can stop yelling at each other and live up to the thread's name for a minute - What OS / distro should I use to be able to use D12, while not losing much of W7's functionality?
Liam Nelson
OpenBSD
Asher Reyes
Yes, I've used it and it's decent.
Dominic Edwards
what distro is not frigging meme around here?
Blake Rivera
You might want to stay with 18.04 because its LTS while 18.10 you will have to upgrade in a few months If you want other lightweight alternatives take a look at Xfce-based Xubuntu or Linux Lite What is D12? otherwise see above
Tyler Clark
I've tried to do just that and i could never get it to work It would be the panzoom filter.
