2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Tell me you've not used arch much, without telling me you've not used arch much.

    I drive a German Tiger btw.

    NixOS: just a bunch of steel and vehicle.conf

    Go to the factory and sudo vehicle-build the tank you want

    [–] dukk@programming.dev 5 points 2 years ago

    NixOS isn’t a tank, it’s a tank building machine!

    Green Ubuntu for the win

    What could fedora be? I think I'll switch from it to debian unstable or mint when I make time.

    [–] TheInsane42@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

    Fedora is the beta of CentOS, which is the beta of RedHat/Rocky.

    Ehm, the French BDR G1 B? (picking a tank from WoTB, designed but never bult as successor of B1)

    Hannah Montana Linux is a 1943 Willys Jeep painted pink with a bubble gun on top and a really loud sound system blasting 'Party In The USA'

    Love the Debian conclusion. they just might deserve the superiority complex. (I have to admit, Debian is pretty stable)

    BTW love the Centurions in WoTB, great tanks, all of them.

    My brother used to drive British tanks, and constantly mocked other tank brands. I run Debian btw.

    ARCH LINUX

    [–] palordrolap@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago

    Me on LMDE: Sherman / Centurion hybrid it is then.

    Censhermion? Uh. Maybe not that name though.

    POV me over a year ago:

    • boot into LinuxLite life environment
    • Holy fuck is that Google Chrome?
    • immediately shut down the Computer and delete the ISO
    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago

    I think Manjaro should be the one of the early ones that had a thin shell that was unable to stop bullets

    [–] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

    That's based off your comment under the arch-buttplug meme isn't it

    [–] tuto193@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

    Where does NixOS place within these?

    [–] fl42v@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

    Some futuristic scifi-ish thing that is also a factory with a pocket dimension allowing you to easily morph/replicate it and pull previous versions from that pocket dimension if something went wrong... But the orders are given in some alien dialect, and from time to time you have to check how others have managed to convince it to do parts of the job you want and stitch together a solution while listening to it cursing at you cryptically

    An intricate command center for orchestrating large ground operations, which just so happens to build tanks with the same technology.

    [–] Gork@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

    Do Hello Kitty livery tanks equate to Hannah Montana Linux?

    [–] riodoro1@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

    Im really curious as to why arch is always criticized for lack of reliability. Ive set up mine btw a long while ago, update it once a month if I remember and it just worksβ„’

    Ive used debian previously and every second update left me with fucked up nvidia drivers and needing to boot to shell.

    [–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

    Looking at unixporn, arch is a panzer 4

    [–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

    An absolutely and totally unbiased view ofc.

    [–] mlg@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

    Fedora would be the 76 jumbo lol.

    [–] ThisIsAManWhoKnowsHowToGling@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago

    I am offended that Zorin OS isnt on here. But what tank would it be? Which tank is fairly reliable, user-friendly, and very pretty?
