You could be like me. I have no specialized subject, I just know a little about a lot.
It is good to be good, but it is better to be lucky.

You mean hardly useful, no matter what the situation is? =p.


I suggest Slackware as a starters distro, because we're all here to help you. However, asuming we weren't here, I'd suggest ubuntu, because it basically does everything for you. Ease of Windows, stability of UNIX. Win, win.
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

That's a very inaccurate portrayal of how dispersed knowledge is useful.

Be that as it may, is seemed funny to say at the time.

I've only used a couple distros and even then not very extensively, but I'm enjoying arch linux quite a bit right now not because there is anything particularly amazing about it (yet), but because it allows me to really learn as I go rather than just choosing options and wondering what they do.  I've heard its a spinoff of slackware, but I wouldn't know.

Slack instalation wise, is easy as fuck. I didn't get help from any of you assholes while I installed it.

<3

So, yeah, slack is a good choice.

Slackware works great.  That's what tehserver's running (I didn't copy TehUser, I swear -_-).

No, TehUser runs the one you're thinking of.  I named my server tehserver too, but it wasn't inspired by TehUser; I was just in a very non-innovative mood when I named it I guess (it was about two years ago, I've since installed Slackware on it, but I kept the same name).

In other news, I renamed it!

deepthought ! :D
