    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.






  • lol typical bigot thing to say. BUT 200 YEARS AGOOOOOO…

    Nah you loser… BTW those books aren’t for you or your kid. They’re for kids who are confused about why they are different. It’s that fucking simple. Just like the products you scream about in Target aren’t for you…they are for people who would want them… Which there are a lot of.

    I was jerkin off to cosmopolitan magazines by the time I was 8. You want to kids to be ashamed and repress any feelings they have that are part of being a normal human. The 3 books in a school library that talk about gay and trans are for those kids who are going through that.

    No one is teaching Timmy to dress as a girl. You have been groomed by propaganda. Literally it’s not happening in any meaningful way you are just a literal bigot that has taken the side of religious whackos based on actual false information.

    You’re one of the idiot parents that definitely shouldn’t have shit to do with what happens in the education of ANYONEs kids. I feel sorry if you actually have one. I’d bet you are actually just a loser incel that pretends shit’s happening in mass based on some dumb ass pod casts you listen to.

    Might want to learn about actual journalism that has backup sources and data. Where you’d find literally none of the shit you think is happening is happening. Instead you’ve chosen the weak minded bigot route. You’ve been groomed and continue to this day to be groomed… It’s all republicans have. They want to dumb you down as fast as they can because if not you’d realize they are trying to strip all sorts of rights away. 1st amendment, 14th amendment. Meanwhile they pass 0 actual useful legislation. Completly deny the existance of climate change and think the earth is 6000 years old.

    looolll… You’re parents fucked up with you. Hope to shit you don’t actually have a kid because you are already fucking up with it.


  • Yes. Parents are idiots. Just because a couple religious bigots don’t want a book is meaningless. Parents don’t know how to teach kids or what the data says about what is important to learn. Parents don’t set the curriculum and they shouldn’t because by and large they are idiots.

    You’ve at the very least buddied up with a bunch of bigots who would be fighting to keep black people out of their schools of this was 60 years ago.

    Well done, bigot.



  • You can’t handle that people are different than you and by having the school even mention them it sends you to a rage. It’s religious grooming that fucked you up. Lots of parallel to racism. You know this thing called freedom means you won’t always like everything to come of it. We put up with your stupid ass religious horse shit. You’ll just have to deal with seeing gay people from time to time.








  • 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
