I caught this ubuntu server thing on my laptop, I haven't really bothered fixing it because it's been really handy

I like Linux. I like Linux users. I don't like people who think Linux is the only viable OS to use, though. That's just obnoxious and exhausting.

So theres BSD, truth.

Lemmy users are hookers confirmed

I don't understand why anybody would complain about that. It's like complaining that too many people wear jeans.

I think OP is confusing the fact that people are sick of Linux users preaching with people using Linux.

Speaking of, I recently switched to Linux, do the thigh high socks just show up or do I have to order them myself?

If you use arch you have to start knitting

[–] [email protected] 12 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

And with Gentoo you have to spin your own yarn before the knitting 😁

[–] [email protected] 3 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

But you can tune the specifications of the yarn to theoretically make the socks up to 2% more comfy. In practice your tuning efforts will make the socks less comfortable and tear more easily.

And with LFS, you need to breed, raise the sheep and then shear them yourself before you get to spin and knit the socks........

You have to find the shop and pay some gold, but when you equip them you get +2 programming and can be combined with BLÅHAJ for +2 gender euphoria.

Frankly, I don't have a problem with anyone who uses linux, I do too. I just get tired of the same stupid circlejerks that paint it as some kind of perfect alternative to existing mainstays. I like it, you like it, Lemmy is a deeply nerdy subsect of diehard FOSS ideologies and the power of the personal computer. But dear god is it kind of insufferable at times when it's preaching to converts, and I imagine even less pleasant for those who just don't have a desire to care.

who just don’t have a desire to care.

With this attitude don't expect people to be supportive of your wrong choices

Yeah, who knew an open source platform would be used by open source enthusiasts?
