Give me the tl;dr

>>6580
Tl;DR of the first two, is that EMF weapons design seems to be hazardous to the health of those designing it for one reason or another, and the government is keeping it top secret. Cold war fears and all that jazz too.

The third is concerning the "Moscow Signal", which goes from 2.5 to 4 gigahertz at 5 milliwatts per square centimeter. What the paper is so concerned about, is the possible medical effects of microwave radiation above 10 milliwatts. Project PANDORA was the US's experiment of recreating the Moscow Signal and determining it's medical effects on monkeys so they can gauge it's effects on humans. 

From the paper, the study concluded that the frequency caused neural issues with the monkey while the monkey "worked". However, there is a LOT of missing data in what is merely two pages of an extensive report. What "work," was this monkey doing? What could potentially hamper the results of this test? What was the monkey's state of health before the test?

The fourth is a paper on how soviet standards are far different than american standards when it comes to microwave radiation, not too much to tell, since back then, there wasn't many sources of radio or magnetic radiation through electronics.

So what does this mean for the modern day?

Well, the thing is this.

A microwave oven runs at 2.45Ghz. which is technically 5mhz below the 2.5ghz of the bottom of the Moscow Signal.
Wlan and other Wifi technologies run at anywhere from 2.5ghz to 6ghz, which is both in and beyond the range of the Moscow Signal.

No, I had some issues with libvirtd where it was hanging at random, and it's probably related to it being an older version. I will, though, try and get it back up under a new channel at a later date.

>A little, see
A giant copypasta is not experience.  What is it like attaching new hardware devices to distro X?  What is it like trying to roll back an update that broke something you were using for a longer term project?  If I wanted to write a program in C that had a couple small dependencies (say, a simple GUI library), what would that process look like?  That's the kind of stuff I want answered, not vague platitudes about being "comfy" or "for beginners."

I consider myself a tech beginner and a Linux novice since I don't do much dedicated programming (which I'm looking to change), but I'm head and shoulders above most normalfag devs who would vomit at the sight of a command line and I do have an education from a college that was taught to me by white men.  I'm sure that I could do any individual thing needed for a power use installation like pure Gentoo or even LFS, but I know that I enjoy it when computers have sane defaults and do work for me.

>>6403
When you are choosing a distros, you need to consider:
1. Can I trust this distro and its maintainers? (they have basically root access to your system!)
2. Does this distro have all packages I need?
3. Does this distro have a future, or will it die soon? (Source Mage GNU/Linux is example of distro that has too small community and Void had some internal drama some time ago...)
I recommend you install either Arch or Artix because they meet the criteria above and they mainly just work. Arch could better choice than Artix because it's easier to find help with Systemd using Goolag.

>What is it like attaching new hardware devices to distro X?
Plug it in and it just works on all GNU/Linux distros (unless you need proprietary drivers). Using non-free drivers is easiest on Arch/Artix and Gentoo.

>What is it like trying to roll back an update that broke something you were using for a longer term project?
I never have experienced major breakage after an upgrade in years while using GNU/Linux (in general). And I gave up using Slackware because installing stuff on Slackware is not very comfy (you need to solve the dependencies yourself and not everything is packaged on Slackbuilds). 
Archwiki has instructions for downgrades but downgrading and doing partial upgrades are not supported on Arch. See, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Downgrading_packages and https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_Linux_Archive  On Gentoo you can downgrade and do partial upgrades. And on Gentoo selecting a particular version of a package is easy and you can mask broken packages if you want to.

>If I wanted to write a program in C that had a couple small dependencies (say, a simple GUI library), what would that process look like?

Also, you really should try Arch or Artix using Virtual Box VM (https://www.virtualbox.org/).

Using SystemDick can cost you money:
>Microsoft Azure customers' virtual machines (VMs) running Ubuntu 18.04 have been taken offline by an ongoing outage caused by a faulty systemd update.
>The outage started nine hours earlier, around 06:00 UTC, after the affected customers upgraded to systemd version 237-3ubuntu10.54 and their VMs started experiencing DNS errors, with no DNS resolver addresses available on impacted systems.

>downgrading and doing partial upgrades are not supported on Arch
Lol, is this the current state of vanila arch right now? I do partial update all the time in Artix. There's nothing wrong with partial update as long you know what you're doing. Well of course you shouldn't do partial update on sensative packages like icu,sudo,nettle because that would make you unbootable to your display manager. Lets take a scenario where you broke 1 program. You got an error looking for /usr/lib/example.so.34 library is missing. You can always do pacman -Qo /usr/lib/example.so.34 to find which package that is responsible for that breakage. It will name you the package so you could upgrade that single package accordingly. If you lost track on other possible missing packages, use "pactree <package>" to see the whole relatable dependancies of that package in hierarchical result.

Why should one waste time programming? Everyone should just learn to use what others wrote. Better yet, they should own nothing and be happy about it.

thats basically just a library you stupid fucking boomer.

Because the first good build system (Meson) was only made recently and hasn't picked up as many users as it should. Most programmers don't know programming itself and are too dumb to know better or they're in a state of learned helplessness and still think build systems are like mail clients which have never been done right. Also, nobody is taught how to write build definitions correctly and few can figure it out by themselves.

>>6674
In their model, anything that maintains a key value store with respect to being up to date is a build system.

>>6674
It makes sense. The tables are build instructions rather than values, which are then processed to make the final result. 
I guess the distinction is that a function either just returns you a result or needs to be called, whereas the build instructions generate automated results.

>>6558
Install Arch or Gentoo. Debian or Devuan are also acceptable choices.

any /prog/fags here? what is it like handling programs made by trannies? is it true that gays code software better than the rest of us?

>>6508
I am afraid the only fag here is you. Gays are not necessary better programmers. kys

>>6508
I don't think gays or trannies make better software than anyone else. They are certainly better at annoying the fuck out of people and making themselves known, though.
Preferably you'd avoid tranny software whenever possible. If they really care about FOSS, then they should tolerate someone that doesn't like them making use of their software, but of course we all know how tolerant trannies are, so I wouldn't bet on them staying neutral in regards to Chuck the Chud  using xer software to run a neo-nazi forum.

Everything downhill ever since. I'd buy a windows xp handheld if they made one for retro gaming and such, just non-Internet things. It'd be neat if it had no wifi nor bluetooth. I wonder if an atompi can do it? Too big though. Win7 works they say but then mini-itx would be better for that.. when win7 works.  I still have a dell inspiron b130 and it runs an older project64 pretty good for common n64 titles. Older/weaker consoles even better of course.

And yet systemd took Linux over and Linux comes with Chromium installed also now days I'm sure. The way you install things is dick with Linux. Javascript, cookies... why even complain? Post 2007 CPU's got backdoors in them to where they can hack from afar as I understand it rather than crack up close. Why move on past 2007 devices? Are you using Debian 5 on a 2005 cpu? 

It's okay I like Lakka and Slacoware version Puppy Linux and dual booting them using Pinn.

>Say something nice about it.
Most comfy OS I have ever used. Privacy and security concerns were limited and easy to deal with back in the day. Easy to modify to hell and back. Great useful programs out of the box for people to make their first baby steps with a PC. Great for video games old and new at the time. The definition of the home computer in the early 2000s.

Two years ago I build an offline XP machine from the best eary 2000s hardware I could find to play with some old games that don't run correctly on modern systems. Was fun to fiddle with the old hardware again. But oh man was it slow. Once the games were running it's fine, just like today. But everything else took it's minutes and seconds longer than you expect it.

Yes they do it. Mass-surveillance is pretty easy to do since everyone is on social media and has a goyphone.

>how come the school shooter who says he will shoot up a school in instagram DMs the day before the shooting, doesn't get caught?
Remember Waco? Can you trust your government? ((( They ))) get more money for the next budget if there are terrorist and school shooters. It's not just about pure money but also politics. 9/11 was known beforehand (dancing Israelis et. al.) but it wasn't stopped? Why? I bet it was because of money and the Patriot Act (and to get casus belli to attack middle eastern countries).

>>6476 (OP) 
They want absolute control and ownership of everything, from your body to this planet, to the universe. They can't track everything yet, but that is the goal, because they want a system of universal slavery that will last forever and that can never be opposed. Just look at what is happening in the world right now. Agenda 21 has already happened, and Agenda 2030 is being implemented right now. They are already trying to take away people's land and talking about banning car ownership. There is no amount of power that they will be satisfied with.

>>6476 (OP) 
At this point government spying, and corporate spying is pretty-much-accepted-as-fact regardless of what they're actually doing.

the NSA spy-ops are generally seen as gov spying on citizens for stupid reasons. I don't have it personally, but there's a repost that details how there's a recon organization for the US armed forces that basically is the eyes for actual threats against our nation without the need for spying on citizens. 

I don't know, but I have three hypotheses on just why they spy on citizens.
Law Route - "War is changing, we need to look for threats within ourselves,"
Neutral Route - "Better safe than sorry, everyone else is doing it anyway,"
Chaos Route - "Nobody can be trusted, we will not survive an uprising without this,"

Believe it or not, most of the "wow, you're so paranoid for not having a facebook/instagram/google/pintrest/tiktok account, lol." types are either out-of-touch wannabe-influencers, shills, or bots.

Most normies are actually sick of feeling like all their tech is watching them, they're just afraid and don't know what to do to fix the problem. Besides, it's not like anyone with a cell phone had a choice in that their personal data is being treated like another piece in a spreadsheet to be used as a convenient blackmail tool.
