I use arch btw
That one line probably started a three-hour debate right there at the funeral.
I’ve never told anyone IRL that I use Linux.
Nor have I actually spoken to anyone for more than a few words since I started using Linux.
Are young among people a lot?
Thank you, because on here people don’t shut the fuck up about it even if the thread doesn’t involve Linux. They’re as bad as Cross-Fitters and Vegans.
Tbf, here it is (mostly?) often a joke, whereas… 🤪😳🙃🙄😞😤
Here here
You’re doing it now! /s
I heard symptoms get worse the longer you don’t talk about it.
I haven’t either but I do find myself having to master the urge more and more.
And yet here you are
this is the same corporate fueled viral joke as “vegans always telling everyone about being vegan”.
maybe if windows wasn’t a vibe coded, microslop, death-by-1,000-papercuts, spycrosoft, torment nexus, then nobody would feel the need to tell people about linux?One of my favorite jokes:
Q: A Vegan, a crossfit enthusiast, and a Linux user walk into a bar. How do we know?
A: They told every. Damn. Person. In the bar. Within 5 fucking minutes.
except it’s an unearned stereotype pushed by the corporations that lose money from people quitting meat and windows
i could tell you a lot of jokes based on stereotypes but i don’t want to spread fud.
also, i’ve never heard a single person talk about crossfit ever, but if they do, it’s probably because they enjoy it and want to tell you about things they have benefited from because they want you to be healthy and happier… not to gloat or whateverThe two people I know in real life who do cross fit netting it up constantly, and it’s definitely to gloat. I’ve rarely heard people who are vegan being it up. As for Linux evangelists I’ve been one since the late 90s.
If it’s all the same person, which do they tell everyone about first?
this line of reasoning seems right to me. Well, if Windows didn’t have all these problems, there wouldn’t be as much need to migrate to another operating system
Yesterday someone was murdering their dog in public. I almost intervened, but thankfully they told me just in time that they’ve already squared that decision with their conscience. Phew, haha, that was close. Wouldn’t that have been embarrassing, if I pushed my ideology onto somebody who has already squared that decision with their conscience?
i get it but i have a dog and im still mad at you
Arch

I exchange emacs for vim
I exchange ancient vim for fancy neovim and monospaced fonts upgraded to nerd fonts.
Ew emacs, yuck 🤢🤮. Try Vim and you’ll never go back.

Arch comments in 3, 2, 1 …
So you’ve all heard about rolling in your grave, but have you heard about rolling releases? No? Well it works like …
I came in here to say “Arch, btw” but now I don’t wanna.
Fine, Hannah Montana it is then.
People are boasting about Arch, but my first open-source OS was FreeBSD 4.2, fitting on a single CD-ROM.
It included a tiny base system and C compiler, and practically every other package had to be compiled from source, using theportssystem, which was just a collection of makefiles, one for each package.
And you had to be careful to usegmakeinstead ofmake, because the default Make was BSD-specific tool incompatible with most of open-source software, which targeted Linux. And you had to make sure to use GNU versions of grep, sed, and awk, and remove all bashisms from shell scripts, because/bin/shwas of course incompatible withbash.
You had only about 50% chance that a given package would compile. Package manager? What package manager? Just runsuand thenmake install.
And my PC was AMD K6, and it had Turbo button, which did absolutely nothing. And I was very proud of my TEAC CD drive.Arch-based, the path you choose, btw? Good.
Big endeavour it is.
Closer to the Force, you’ll feel… the more you learn.The turbo button actually slowed down the pc.

EDIT: Replied to the wrong post, fuck it, it stays as is.
Feels like one of those jokes that explicitly shouldn’t go into programmerhumor. A programmer that doesn’t interact with Linux, that’s something to tell the world about…
Oh yeah, did I tell you I’m vegan?
There needs to be a vegan distro. Surely someone has created one just so they can make this joke.
A vegan, a crossfitter, and an arch user walk into a bar. She orders a gluten free beer.
I watched Pew Die Pie’s video about self-hosting de-googled services with docker.
I did not expect this. What has happened to the world?
This is sad whatever happened but I use manjaro btw.
Lemmy.
Just going to leave us hanging re the distro guy??
It was the set-up to a joke. Nobody asked who’s there so they did not get to finish.:-(
I tell everyone at my part time job that we need Linux on their systems. I know nothing about Linux servers. Lemmy has convinced me most institutions would benefit from the switch.
