Operating systems

What operating system does /prog/ use?  If GNU/Linux, which distribution (or LFS)?

I didn't have that problem. In fact, it wasn't more than 5 years ago that I had to work with such machines every day and had surprisingly little difficulty. Today I still don't have a use for more than 2GB of RAM... the one time my system used more than that owed to a broken build system turned itself into a forkbomb.

On servers it is different, which is sadly where Java sees the most penetration. Picture a web server with 1 or 2GB of RAM, almost entirely consumed by a few Java processes performing the equivalent duties of a 30-line Perl script (which would need a peak RSS of 2 to 4MB.) Then try to come to terms with the frustration of having these processes hang and eventually crap out because they were invoked with too low a memory limit, which (about 64MB.) And the vendor speaks very good Russian. I'm still not sure whether Java is generally bad or just systematically badly written.

Dual boot Win7 and Arch Linux.
Tried Gentoo but those USE-Flags really fucked me up. Arch Linux just provide i686 optimized binaries and its small and simple.

The hardest part about using Linux was that first cock in my ass. But I'm used to it now, so it goes in easier.

Imagine a giant cock flying towards your mouth, and there's nothing you can do about it. And you are like "oh, man, I'm gonna have to suck this thing", and you brace yourself to suck this giant cock. But then, at the last moment, it changes trajectory and hits you in the eye. You think "well, at least I got that out of the way", but then the giant cock rears back and stabs you in the eye again, and again and again.
Eventually this giant cock is penetrating your gray matter and you begin to lose control of your motor skills. That's when the giant cock slaps you across the cheek, causing you to fall off out of your chair. Unable to move and at your most vulnerable, the giant cock finally lodges itself in your anus, where it rests comfortably for 4, maybe 5 hours. That's what using Linux is like.

i'd have to buy a new motherboard to put a hard drive larger than 120GB in the machine i'm using now (no SATA, only enough room for a 2.5" hard drive).

Crunchbox? I meant Crunchbang.
I've been working on making Openbox not look like shit for the past couple hours.
