To be fair. This can be applied to apple and windows users sometimes.
I saw this, told my cats, and felt better

I feel worse because I donβt have cats and you do have cats. Itβs a catastrophe.
- step one: put food bowl out and refill it on a constant schedule
- there is no step two
Edit: listing is hard
Will I ever get to pet these "cats".
You mean should one choose to mark their territory on your hand or arm? Depends on the quality of food, human
Step two, clean litter box. Rinse repeat.. π
Did they switch to Linux?
They can do the cat command. I may have moved a paw to help
No idea about the cats but it would be good if my mice were to switch to QMK.
Wouldn't they be wired?
Yes, most of my mice are wired.
There's one that is not, but it went bad pretty quickly.
I use glorious Nixos.
This is not a recommendation. It is an abusive relationship. Do not install nixos without research.
NixOS is a dangerous drug, but at least it's a drug without side effects, since Nix is purely functional.
Isn't this mainly an Arch meme? I think most Linux users who have been using it for several years don't go around talking much about it anymore. But I admit the meme kinda does depict mid-teenage me who had recently switched to Linux.
Hey guys, I use Linux Mint btw!
I been thinking about trying pop! OS, anyone got reviews?
Not as good as Mint for me
It's like the Crossfit of tech
Holy crap maybe that's why I've been in such a trash mood for a few weeks
Btw I don't use Arch
Akshually its called GNU/Linux π€
I'm still on Windows 10. Sure would love a reason to switch...
You fucking fiends.
It's actually really easy, the best is to start with Linux From Scratch. That's how you get a couple of hours of heartwarming fun and games.
Start on your grandmother's PC she can join the fun
Great, thanks. But isn't she going to be confused by the lack of anything to click on? She doesn't know how to "hack" or "code" or whatever you Linux brainiacs do lol...?
She will catch right on, just trust my advice. A "mouse" is overrated, I haven't used on in years. Once you memorize the man pages(just a few minutes) should be smooth sailing

I feel personally attacked by this post.
I'm the opposite, I generally don't mention it because I know that I won't be able to keep myself from talking too much about it. If it's someone who's at my place and they ask what I'm using or I just see them looking confused about what's going on when I'm using it I'll gladly show them but never do the whole speech thing about why and why they should too etc.
Told the wasps outside and they stung me for my insolence.
I use windows and Mac os
I havenβt mentioned Linux for decades
You should make a meme about tech corporations spending billions to advertise their products

I just go here everyday and tell it, the void doesn't judge, it just accepts and disregards.
I use Mint btw.
