I've been a linux guy since 1996. It's also my job. I'm not sure what type of linux scene you're looking for, but there's a lot out there. Have you installed virtualbox and a linux distro to have a bit of fun?

Facebook can see everything, they would never need to be on your friends list.

I know they can but they can ask you leading questions and shit and possibly since I don't put a company I work for down trick you into revealing it so they can get the Trump supporter fired just for the fuck of it and have their fag bragging points on Facebook that they tricked some idiot into chatting and they got them fired. There are also other reasons why people try to do shit like that, they have an agenda then they have their personal being an asshole to someone they don't even know agenda.

Oh I'm sorry, I understand now. Completely agree, future isn't looking very easy.

I have used virtual box a few times and on Manjaro it ran like shit and the site reported it's a but with the guest additions on sharing files and I refuse to use a usb stick to cut and paste since workarounds are bullshit to me. So virtualization on b450 tomahawk max is shitty as hell and some non vbox programs even act up on it. Sorry but between wine and virtualbox both my last 2 setups were shit.

I liked the problem solving for the newbs and the people showing off their new installs of shit that just released or not so well known linux distro's, one guy did daily installs of new stuff, he was bored and retired so it made him happy and gave him a purpose. The administrator on one of the groups also was the COO of Fossbytes and he helped many people out with some extremely tough problems they were having with their systems not booting or crashing for no reason, guy was a real information machine.

Virtualbox VMs are pretty slow if they aren't configured for performance. OpenSUSE Tumbleweed is pretty nice for a constantly updated distro. It's really strong with KDE, if you like KDE.

Sounds like that group is hard to replace, I guess that's the nature of great communities, part of it is the good memories.

Main performance boosts in VB are:

Chipset: ICH9 Paravirtualization interface: minimal Graphics Controller: WMSVGA (max video memory: 128, or by hand in the config: 256) Storage Controller Type: virtio-scsi Networking Adapter Type: virtio-net

The rest can be recommended by Virtualbox.
