    ubuntu is the most widely used distro and very simple to setup and gaming out of the box with steam is very simple. Distro end of the day doesn’t matter all that much because you can change them to your hearts content, but for a beginner, you’d probably have the easiest time with an ubuntu distro.

    Doesn’t hurt to have virtual box windows on your linux box just so you can easily do some of that other stuff. While I have done fine with libre office for a long time there are definitely problems with formatting so having a windows VM would just solve that issue. Plus teams and w/e.

    Epic games will take some serious tweaking, but not impossible.

    I’v been using Ubuntu for nearing 20 years now. Maybe like 18ish… It took debian’s rock solidness and made it ez pz. It’s super easy to install and configure and runs like a dream. Has long term stable releases especially important for server architecture. Has the “server” install that is minimal on disk space.

    Etc… Just really rock solid distro that I’ve run for decades and has cost me $0 to do so.

    I ran red hat till all the cool kids told me it’s got to be Debian and then Ubuntu hit the scene and that was that. I’m sure Arch is fine and I’d bet had I chosen to stick with Red Hat and move to Fedora it’d also be fine. End of the day it’s still Linux.

    I’m in a town of 3600… People are super fucking poor and still work their asses off. None of them would give a fuck if you “try that” or w/e the fuck that guy is on about… They’d go on about their business because they are just surviving. They’d sure as fuck not give a shit about any sorta of vigilante justice. They’d say “that’s definitely not my problem”

    Pretty sure this dude is pandering to wannabees who probably have never actually spent any time in a small town in the US.







  • I think the advertising it can do is a perfectly reasonable way to monetize…

    Their problem is they want to be some major player and not a “right sized” organization… They want to go public and try to be billionaires and be like elon or zuck, but it’s just not going to be that.

    So in their quest for GREED they’ll destroy the very thing that can make them absolute massive amounts of money. It’s crazy how many mega corps have fallen to the same fate.

    They should welcome 3rd parties and any other means to see reddit and monetize the advertising… Hell they could even try to work streaming deals with NFL and NBA and whatever… Cowboys games live threads alone have caused the entire reddit website to collapse lol.

    SOOO much monetization possibilities in that. And it’s charging billion dollar organizations… not the people that use the service…

    Spez is not a good business man

    GOP is busy listening to pod casts that’s how they get all their information. They only know how to use their phones so it makes sense that they can’t actually explore the web and open their minds.

    Hence letting the religious fruitcakes take over and continue to push wild conspiracy theories and ignore science as their main party platform.

    What you are seeing is literally because the people you identify with are mostly fucking idiots. You should be so proud!
