An absolutely and totally unbiased view ofc.

Boy, I wonder which Linux distro OP uses

[-] Pharmacokinetics@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Are we talking about War Thunder Russian bias or Linux Debian bias?

Image having a "War Thunder Russian bias" and still giving the Sherman more credit for beating the Nazis than the T-34.

I'm actually offended, and I'll gladly throw down on any Wehraboo that thinks the Shermans were trash

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

As an arch user and a German heavy main, this actually feels fair. Both are capable machines but neither are going to maintain themselves, both come with an entire manual you're expected to read, and nobody will be sympathetic to you if you don't know the basics of what you're doing (rotate the steel box for fucks sake).

Now comparing the StuG to Manjaro, that hurts.

[-] anyhow2503@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Beyond the initial setup, Arch has become quite easy to maintain if you have some Linux erperience, mostly because the community has grown a lot in the past few years. Still wouldn't recommend it to a complete beginner in most cases.

Now, which fucking tank doesn't require regular maintenance or come with instructions you're expected to remember?

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 1 year ago

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

Care to explain? I'm not so familiar with tanks

[-] _cnt0@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago

It's more of a joke. The tank in the picture is a T28 Super Heavy Tank . It was developed in the US and was ludicrously large. Not being ready for serial production at the end of WW2 the project was canceled. Only two prototypes were ever built.

Green Ubuntu for the win

[-] PlexSheep@feddit.de 9 points 1 year ago

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 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year 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'

[-] cpw@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

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

[-] TheInsane42@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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.

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

Censhermion? Uh. Maybe not that name though.

[-] quantenzitrone@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago

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 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[-] Gork@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Do Hello Kitty livery tanks equate to Hannah Montana Linux?

[-] tuto193@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Where does NixOS place within these?

[-] fl42v@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year 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

[-] riodoro1@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year 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 works™

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

[-] mlg@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Fedora would be the 76 jumbo lol.

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?

[-] Sanctus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Looking at unixporn, arch is a panzer 4
