Everytime I scroll past something from this community my eyes bleed. Y’all wanna fuck windows users so bad
You can embed it:
I don’t think I can from kbin.
, right?Oh, I didn’t notice you were on Kbin. Sorry.
Should’ve been on Linux smh my head 😔
._.
(It’s just a joke it’s ok)
Not if they’re using Linux.
Yes.
I may think windows users are dumb, but not so dumb as to exclude them from the ability to consent, so…
wtf
Whoops ignore my last post I thought you were someone else.
It’s what is called “a joke.” Comparing windows users to say dogs, who aren’t intelligent enough to consent.
I guess you could take it darker to intellectually disabled people,
Or really darker to children,
But the interpretation of that part shall be left to the reader, that’s on you.
It’s a figure of speech, it means to be obsessed with.
An alternative phrase would be: “they live rent free in your head”
It’s a joke.
An alternative phrase would be: obviously that wasn’t serious, dingus. Lmao.
Actually, maybe y’all can’t consent after all.

Lol all good!
I don’t know, given what they let Microsoft do to them I don’t know if Windows users actually understand that consent is something they don’t have to do.
Relax stallman
Actually, what you’ve been callng linux is actually gnu+linux (copypasta continues).

It’s not a religion it’s just some damned software
Y’all are very serious for a meme community
Its not something that effect’s your every day live its just a book
Excuse me sir, do you have a moment to talk about our Motherboard and Server?
Is it true that The Man in the Middle was cast down from on high?
Can tell you’re that type of friends if you’re replying with anime reactions

Very professional looking, even though all that is offered is drawing anime girls, lol.
When she gets onto Linux:
“Now we just need to get you onto Arch!”
I knew about Linux when I was 10, and Linux was only like 2 years old at the time. How does someone be online in any capacity these days and not know about Linux? Linux users are everywhere and they never stop talking about Linux!
Do you have a moment to talk about our lord and saviour Linus Torvalds
God bless his kind soul
Git in my belleh
I heard the name Linux from Minecraft being available on “Windows, Mac, & Linux” when I was maybe 12-13 (2014-15), but I never looked into it, and all I thought of it was it was some kind of really obscure operating system. I wondered why I’d never seen a Linux computer in tech stores. And Windows seemed perfectly fine, so why would I need to use it? “It probably has some crazy UI that nobody can understand”(except I didn’t know what ‘UI’ was at that age)
That’s back than… I’ve been using Linux as my daily driver now since mid 2021, and I’ve been on Manjaro for nearly 1 & a half years.
However, I’ve met barely anyone who even knows what “a Linux” is. I’ve met a guy who was only using Kali Linux because he wanted to hack or something; and a friend at my church who manages a lot of the technology and computers: him and his father tried using Ubuntu about 10 years ago when he was a late teen. Than there’s another guy at my church who, despite never having used Linux in his life; surprisingly new a lot about it and was able to help me solve a display issue I was having earlier this year. I’ve nearly gotten my Mum onto Linux Mint for her laptop 😂, because she really only makes documents, browses websites, and checks emails, and really doesn’t need to be paying for Windows & having updates forced on her regularly. As a matter of fact, I’m downloading it for her as I type.
The thing about not seeing them in stores is definitely a disconnect between our ages lol.
I remember seeing Debian and Red Hat retail boxes being sold at Sears and Myrvin’s and even Target growing up. Not so anymore. Haha
That’s really surprising to hear! I live in Australia and that may not have been available in stores here even back than… but maybe. Target is actually still around in Australia and a popular store.
We’ve got Linux and eggs, eggs sausage Linux and ham, Linux Linux sausage and eggs, toast juice Linux and ham…
“But… I don’t like Linux!”
“DON’T LIKE LINUX?!”

You’re a good friend.

So can I play Microsoft Flight Sim on a 5120x1444 ultra wide or is that asking too much?
oh my god msgk linux
Do you know how many grey beards have waited their entire lives to have a girl ask them what Linux is. You’ve made a lot of irc mods jealous tonight. Stack overflow responses are going to get super spicy for a couple days
It is normal your friend doesn’t understand what you are talking about since what you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!
Thank you for making this distinction. I’ve never heard this before. Especially not thousands of times by the most socially well-adjusted people on the planet.
I’m currently on some pirated LTSC Windows 10 but I’ll probably move back to Linux next. It just bothers me how much more effort simple tasks take on Linux, and how a lot of the options emulate the inferior Mac look. Whenever I see the red yellow green buttons on a window it makes me gag thinking about all the money that terrible company has scammed people for.
Why worry about the fact that there’s lots of options that emulate the Mac look, when there are many options that don’t? My favourite Desktop Environment currently is KDE Plasma, which I use on Manjaro. It’s more like the Windows design but in my opinion way better, and of course ridiculously customisable (which is what KDE Plasma is known for, especially compared to Windows 10/11). Also the exit, minimize, and maximize buttons I for some reason absolutely love so much better than anything else I’ve seen (no, they look nothing like Mac). My other favourites are Budgie, Cinnamon, and Mate which are all great options. Budgie’s great for the minimalistic design while still looking very modern and clean. And besides, which DE’s are you talking about when you say they are emulating Mac? Most, if not all of them allow you change the “Red, Yellow, Green” buttons to the more traditional Windows look, and move them to the right side of the Window from the left.
Well that’s nice but I was just voicing my personal gripes with the Mac interfaces which are on some of the mainstream Linux versions. I didn’t say they were all bad, it just takes me personally more time to pick the correct ones. I’d hate to select an ultra specific customized version that gets abandoned by the maintainers in a year or two, I generally run machines for about 8 years.

TLDR (Apologies for the crazy long comment): Basically, I say that if you want peace of mind the project isn’t going to be abandoned; choose one of the most popular distro’s and one of the most popular DE’s. And I reccomend a bunch of options for Distro’s and DE’s you might like to use.
That makes sense. If you want the peace of mind that the distro or Desktop Environment isn’t going to be abandoned in a couple of years; that’s why you go with one of the popular ones; they aren’t going away any time soon or the foreseeable future. The distro developers usually customise the included Desktop Environment a bit to cater to their specific audience. Choose a popular distro, and choose one of the officially maintained flavours they make available, rather then a community maintained one, which is much more likely to be abandoned after a couple years. Here’s an example of the popular desktop environments:
KDE Plasma has been around since 1998 & developed since 1996, and is regularly developed, improved, and updated.
Cinnamon has been around since 2011 and is developed by the Linux Mint distro developers; Linux Mint being one of the top 3 most popular Linux distributions; not going away anytime soon. It’s also regularly updated too. And since Linux Mint are the devs; It’s the main, most supported flavour available for Linux Mint.
GNOME I’m not a fan of it personally. It’s been around since 1999, developed since 1997; GNOME is associated with Ubuntu and is one of, if not the most popular desktop environments available; of course this is also regularly updated too, and not going away anytime soon.
Mate (pronounced mah-tay) has been around since 2011; it was forked from an old version of GNOME due to the backlash GNOME was getting at the time for drastic changes they were making to their own DE; and made for people who preferred the GNOME 2 design. Again: regularly worked on and updated
Budgie released in 2014 and is developed by Solus distro developers. In my opinion, it’s absolutely beautiful with it’s minimalistic yet modern visual design, but I can see why it wouldn’t be for everyone; still worth it to check out.
Why don’t you setup a Linux virtual machine on your Windows PC, install a bunch of different flavours of different distro’s, and try the different Desktop Environment’s out for yourself? You might surprise yourself and find one that you adore the look of. I know from experience that using the environments themselves is way different to simply looking at screenshots or watching video’s.
The best options for distro’s to try out imo are:
Linux Mint (Debian based; probably the best beginner friendly distro out there, just about everything is doable without the terminal)
Manjaro (Arch based; made to be an arch-like distro that’s a beginner-to-linux but familiar-with-computers, and average-user friendly distro. A common misconception is that it’s very unstable and prone to breakage: this is not true anymore and was more an issue in it’s early days)
Pop!_OS (Debian based; brilliant for gamers and average computer users; they use GNOME, but System76 (the devs) are working on their own Desktop Environment written from scratch to replace GNOME; last I checked, there haven’t been any screenshots revealed of it.
Those are my top picks but I know my small list is missing many others of the great and popular distro’s. Making sure you can have a system that’s supported for years to come is easy if you pick one of the popular distro’s. If you don’t want to update the system for years at a time; don’t choose a distro with a rolling-release update system (like Arch, Manjaro, Garuda, EndeavourOS etc. which is basically anything Arch-based) If that’s how you use your system; Linux Mint with the Cinnamon, Mate, or XFCE flavour is a perfect choice. And if you want to, you ARE able to install any other DE on Linux Mint even if it’s not officially supported, and you can have as many DE’s installed at once as you want; though that will all require the terminal.
It just bothers me how much more effort simple tasks take on Linux
Such as? I’ve never had this problem.
It depends of what distribution and overall understanding the mentality being the how to install thing stuff. Most people don’t know what’s a package manager for example, how to manage multiple disks on the computer etc… While some linux distros are streamlined and made simple, they can feel quite different to windows.
You don’t just download an installer, go to the folder, click an icon with some associated details, and have warnings about the sort of modifications the program might make when installed. No, you have to learn the command line for this task and sometimes you need to know what parameters to set, and in the case of dependencies you should probably keep track of what all it comes with and what they do because when it comes time to remove a program it’ll be even more tedious. If it takes time then it is work, and Linux is more work.
I think most distros have a command to remove orphaned packages. If you just don’t want to use the command line but want a more App store like experience, then there are some distros that do have a GUI based app store. I think you should try dual booting with something like Pop_!OS when you want to try it. Absolutely do not install it in place of windows the first time, because you might not like it, and dual boot gives you an option to remove it and go back to windows like nothing happened. Then ofc if you don’t want to try it then don’t.
Oh god no, App stores are cancer. I just want files in folders. Easily identified formats like executables or media. I’m sure theres one right for me, but it’s not like it cost me anything to use the Windows LTSC.
Well, linux executables and 3rd party installers exist, but they are not the recommended way to install software, and linux uses the same formats as windows for almost everything(mp4, txt, rtf, etc…). But you should probably stick with windows if you want that UX.
So you not only think Microsoft is not a shitty company, but their UI is better? Lololol
Lololol their UI is 100% absolutely better, and they are much much much less restrictive than Apple. Still a shit company, but if I had an extra 400 or 500 USD I’d pay them for the LTSC.
Yikes
I hate many things about apple but Jesus MS UIs are trashy af
stop calling people pathetic because youre more educated… especially women
