So instead of falling for nike marketing, you want to fall for vans and hoka marketing?

It’s “kick his ass, seabass”

You’d be amazed how many people have strong sensitivities to most surfactants, or outright allergies to some of the more common ingredients. They can be right beside you in an elevator after years of not using soap, and you won’t know.

Shhhh… Dont let anyone know i havent used soap for years (unless i did something really dirty/greasy)

Unfortunately, whats scarier to people is if the installer is text or TUI, :0

We arent that far behind. I’ve had to pay for tons of private services out of pocket here in quebec.

Basic shit like dermatology and MRIs

No, the CIA was selling drugs in latin america…

Iraq was invaded twice

My guess is iran

Imagine being so out of touch that you cant see the torrent of ewaste this is going to create for a planet that’s already on fire.

I thought i had a pretty good radar for AI slop these days, but this one slipped past my heuristics.

What tipped you off?

On closer inspection, the meteors are a clue. AI doesnt seem to know that the foreground characters should occlude them.

Any other obvious ones?

Same here. I always have a terminal open if i need it. I probably split my time 50/50 between GUI and CLI.

not sure why people think it’s one or the other when using linux

I use debian, btw

There’s a guy at work proudly reminiscing about how we had to fuck around with autoexec.bat and config.sys back in the day to get things to work

But refuses to use linux because CLI…

You know whats worse than doing things in windows command line or powershell? The registry

“Nooooo! I cant $sudo nano /etc/some.conf!!!”

Regedit -> HKEY_USERS/microsoft/windows/system/some_setting --> value=FUCK type=DWORD

well if people stick to the proper linux way of doing things (official software repos) then that’s actually closer to what they are used to doing (apple app store) than just randomly downloading installers off the internet

linux should be a relatively easy switch for most people.

I’m really more concerned about the massive e-waste. Linux communities are thriving

Doubt.

Yes, many internet nerds will finally switch to linux. Most normies will just throw millions of computers into the trash and buy win11 approved machines.

Linus is giving away home made guitar pedals to kernel contributors

Nive guy

I have a coworker who went from windows only to “i want to try self host a bunch of stuff”

Ran into lots of learning curves and problems

Conclusion? “Linux sucks! Too difficult!”

Take up endurance sports…

Starve yourself all week while training, do a 30k long run on the weekend, then eat 2 days worth of food in onr sitting.

Golf of America now…
