"We're going door to door to spread the news that this is the year of the Linux desktop."
Aka the rapture
"But we hope you'll focus on the Linux thing. Can we give you a flier?"
I feel more like a vegan when talking about Linux
Good for you, but too crunchy?
Should photoshop thier bibles to be laptops instead.
They're printed copies of all of the GNU man pages.
Or rather, the info pages.
Gotta be Thinkpads of course
should also include mice, cause touchpads on Linux🤢🤮
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux, but please do not let this interjection distract you from the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table.
Oh please make this version the go-to answer for lemmy.
Yes
Oh man, if only... Door-to-door evangelical tech support would be so cool.
"Thanks for coming over, I'm having an issue with-"
"Sorry, that's exactly the same as a totally unrelated issue someone had over in Des Moines. Read the rules before we knock on your door next time."
This is just IT Catholicism.
No thanks I will stick to Orthodoxy
Inshallah
Oh IGNUtius, Patron of the Code Divine, Bless our Linux journey, make it shine. Guard our systems, keep them free, From malware's grasp, forever be.
Steadfast Saint, with open source embrace, Grant stability, let bugs erase. In your FOSS realm, may we thrive, Under your guidance, we shall strive.
With Pacman's grace, our packages align, Arch commands echo, your blessings entwine. IGNUtius, hear our plea, For safe computing, we look to thee.
With gratitude and open hearts, we say, Guide us on this Linux way.
Going to get real weird when the Red Hat guys start a crusade against Ubuntu for heresy.
Did you ever hear the tragedy of GNU Linux The Wise? I thought not. It’s not a story the Windows users would tell you. It’s a OSS legend. GNU Linux was a Dark Lord of the Open Source, so powerful and so wise he could use sudo to influence the midichlorians to install apps… He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of sudo is a pathway to many apps some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his niche status, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.
(I'm a pretender still waiting for my Linux box to arrive. I'm sure someone can do a better job of this)
this is innacurate as it shows a woman linux user

whoami
They are holding printed copies of Arch wiki?
This is how I feel when I rant about abandoning Chrome and moving to Firefox so we can save the he open internet from the clutches of Google
I abandoned chrome and went to librewolf, am I doing ok
Please switch your user agent
What should I change it to?
Linux
Alright, I guess I'll have to Google how to do that
Just use the user agent switcher extension. You need to copy Firefox's user agent and paste it in
Well, I installed Firefox on all of my devices after finding out about the DRM plans, mostly through lemmy.
So you got one person.
Oh, for fsck sake!
Bible Pimp: "Have you even RTFM, son?"
Bubblez: "That depends; can you go fuck yourself?"
Isn't that called Linux evangelists?
This was me every time I got bored of windows and was distro-hopping for weeks.
Now I don't have laptop nor pc.
Hint: :q!
