Ae people actually using Kali to get their normal shit done? Isn't it some sort of pentester's liveCD or something? (not sure haven't used it since it was Backtrack),

Last I messed with backtrack, it was basically just Debian pre-loaded with pen-testing and security software. I never thought to install it to my hard drive - I'm pretty sure it was not meant for that. I haven't messed with Kali so I'm not sure how it's different.

Yeah no, Kali is for VM use only imo, I don't wanna put my hard drive into an industrial shredder.

Downvoted, who the hell recommend Kali as the first desktop. It is not even intended for desktop usage.

I think that's the joke. You'd suggest mint to a newbie.

OP is the right guy.

I use Kali a fair bit but even still It's not a daily driver.

If you want freedom in computing use Trisquel GNU / Linux
