Can you C the issue?
(feddit.org)
Is there a /c/linuxdadjokes ?
It was replaced by /rust/linuxdadjokes
damn, that was witty.
Not yet
I know it is a joke, but please do not fragment things into oblivion.
How dare you say something like that in a Linux focused community?!?
(Oh, and this is a joke, don't read it seriously.)
We just need to create that one single ultimate community for good linux jokes.
Until it splits into c/ubuntudadjokes c/archdadjokes and after that, there is no return
I want an entire instance dedicated to the welcome messages you get from a Slackware terminal.
Come on, you guis, seriously?
Shoutout to the developers who work on making Linux safer. Adding memory-safe languages to Linux seems like an uphill battle.
It’s such an uphill battle that some people have altogether stopped contributing to Linux. An example is the former Asahi Linux lead developer.
The Rust community on Lemmy had been foreshadowing this all along.
sed ‘s/c/rust/g’
For non technical readers :
the programming language "Rust" is being used more to make new Linux kernels.
Traditionally, the main language for that use was the one by the name "c".
Non-technical readers? In my Linux memes community??
They're talking to me. I use Mint. I've never opened the terminal. Just because some of us aren't savvy doesn't mean we aren't at least casually interested. You could totally be joking too, I guess.
It's a joke, yeah. Well, or rather a meme. This was a real advertisement, before it got memed on pretty hard:
Edit; disclaimer / content warning: This is a hot take and not helpful for new users! Stay away from reading it unless you want to know, how new users should not be treated. I certainly have learned my lesson (see comments).
Actually ...
I still don't get why Mint with it's legacy Cinnamon desktop is recommended to new Linux users. Even Debian stable with a modern Gnome or Plasma desktop would do more justice to the growing FOSS ecosystem. Or go with Fedora which I recommend to all Linux/FOSS-newbs.
This is a meme, but my strong opinion at the same time. Go with Mint/Cinnamon as long as you like; you'll make your own experiences and it is part of Linux/FOSS, too.
Not using WindowsOS/MacOS is a very big step for them and FOSS
so please don't care that much about distros :) and see the bright side: They are not using WindowsOS/MacOS
Because mint is familiar. The GUI and most of the keyboard shortcuts are similar to windows. The install is quick and easy, and for the most part everything will just work and be similar to what they’re used to.
Some people just want to be able to turn on their computer and do stuff without having to get used to a whole new UI.
I like my mint and xfce tho :(
Man, your attitude is why Linux is still so fringe. That purity test shit is a real turn off.
For a casual user like myself, all that matters is my computer boots, is navigable and runs programs that do what I need. Mint/Cinnamon does that. It does it with no fuss. And every time some great FOSS warrior comes along to tell me it's not Linux enough I like it even more. I'm not interested in distro hopping, at all. To be really honest, I'm not interested in my computer. I just use it.
It's more likely than you think.
Wheres wd-40 linux?
Well, duh: People keep running it on bare metal.
Doctor: Can we talk about C++?
Linus: A-a-a-a-brrrrrr, brbrbr, lololo!!!
Damn that's dry joke. Good one.
I'm gonna bash my head to this fucking joke
yuck yuck yuck
finally a joke for the dads
