Why does everything in the FOSS sphere have to be made overtly creepy by adding anime teenage schoolgirls?

[–] [email protected] 45 points 1 month ago (1 children)

every slightly popular thing gets their anime girls, nothing can escape

every major tech company has an anime mascot. Here's AMD's one: https://moeverse.xyz/wiki/Amada_Kokoro

And here's the one Microsoft made for Internet Explorer:

Clicking that image will take you to her Wikipedia article.

Let me introduce you to the concept of the Venn Diagram

Why are you showing me a circle

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If you think this is restricted to FOSS, you are gravely mistaken https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS-tan

I didn't say it was...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Wait, there's actual text there?

All I see in Voyager is an empty text box.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

It's an image.

I do see an image on Voyager iOS

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah I was really disappointed when I tried Hyprland

The Debian logo is very similar to the progynova logo (progynova is estrogen). The above image is probably inspired by that.

Nah, I think it predates trans culture memes becoming so mainstream.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yet, I don't see a direct relation between (trans) gender and sexuality. (I've seen a meme making fun of the similarity of the logos and packaging before, so I see the point).

(city 17 logo) The City 17 logo featured on several Combine devices.

Welcome. Welcome to City 17.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Woudnt it make sense for computers in city 17 running something like RedstarOS so that they can see what every single citizen is doing

Can't be late if you celebrate pride every month

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I thought we just had a pride month, how many are there now??

[–] AlligatorBlizzard 32 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Debian is out of date. That's it. That's the entire joke. It's basically this without beating on the rotting horse corpse of IE. (And this, like the IE meme, is funnier the longer it's been since June).

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Hah. That's pretty clever

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago

Shoulda used the lesbian colours.

Wdym "sorry" this is amazing <3

Without the thin black outline i would steal this for future use

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Personally I think it is too blocky and the colors too random, but I don't know the original comment that gave the inspiration. I like this one much more, although I'd rather see the rainbow colors follow the direction of the swirl more.

It's the disk usage analyzer.

I was hoping to find something exactly like this, but I didn't - what I used was the Debian Diversity logo from their own site.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

I just searched for "Debian Rainbow" in an image search. I'm sure you can easily hack something together with a rainbow gradient mask over the regular logo in an image editor.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Interesting, to me, the dual gradient looks like late 90s WordArt lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I was more talking about the logo itself, not the background.

I'll fix it up in a bit, but I made it on my phone because I was in the process of re-installing Debian on my potato laptop, and it felt like blasphemy to make it on my gaming laptop (which is currently Windows only until I get another SSD for it), lol.

EDIT: fixed. Mind you, it's still not good...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Cool thanks :D Indeed making this on a windoofus machine would be blasphemy lol

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Let me guess, pride month 2022?
