This looks like malicious compliance to me.

They were probably given a list of things that the parade had to have and they went down the list. Marching in formation (doesn’t say in step anywhere), check. Tanks (from 1980), check. Soldiers with drones (from Best Buy), check. Music, check.

It could be a distro if enough of us download it

Basically, you could see for a long way but your eyeballs suck so it largely doesn’t matter. Even with the best telescope and optics on a perfect day you will be limited by the gasses in the atmosphere which scatter light.

Also, Barad-dûr was destroyed when Frodo threw the One Ring into the fires of Mount Doom so it wouldn’t be there.

Yes, and some fine work as been put into making it a great choice for a webserver:

Just download this executable file from the Internet and run it as administrator.

if __name__ == '__main__':
    exec(open(__file__, 'r').read())

We’re just waiting for the Rust re-write

Does Bazzite have a new enough KDE Plasma and Wayland to do Wayland HDR? (works in GE-Proton10-1+)

looking for anything to remember the hierarchy and memorizing the metric and Celsius measurement system, sometimes explained in schooling or local sayings. (if I had an example for those systems I would give one lol).

This is how I was taught it in school:

The same

I knew, as soon as they installed that damned GUI, that we’d have Windowers coming around with their “Windows key this and WSL that”. I’m going to have to move to BSD at this rate, I hear they have a more permissive license. I was telling my friend Margaret just the other day that I was meaning to move to BSD. That and that I wanted to get a shrubbery, for the garden.

The terminal is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.

I have a git repo of a bunch of stowed configs and scripts, and use Arch, btw

Should be easy to fix, just edit your configuration.nix file…

A, e: very, large number of crabs

Also, Terminal User Interfaces are a nice middle ground between learning terminal commands and having a GUI.

Example:

btop - process manager TUI

ncmpcpp - TUI media player, used mpd on the backend

Here’s a big list: https://github.com/rothgar/awesome-tuis

Oh-My-Zsh (https://ohmyz.sh/) is good if you want to try a nice suite of plugins and dotfiles.

This whole thread seems to be, primarily, people inventing strawmen and them a comment thread dogpiling them.

We have the “elitist Linux question answerer” and the “average user who is grandmother of 93 years that faints at the sight of terminal text” taking a lot of heat.

Many of stray shots at developers for having the audacity to provide access to the software that they made in their spare time without providing a full UX that compares to IOS.

The “fellow Linux users” who installed Linux 5 years ago, ran into a problem and declared Linux a failed experiment.

The OP isn’t even a good meme. It’s just ragebait.

The people who post these kind of things are not trying to improve the community. They’re concern trolling.

Nobody is “preventing simplification”. Anyone is more than welcome to fire up an IDE, clone a project and simplify whatever they feel like. That’s how the open source software ecosystem works. If you don’t like something then fix it.

You’re not a customer, you’re a community member. Making demands of other people isn’t going to go over well, but it isn’t because people are “elitist”.
