The LFS users are still busy growing their coffee plant
Gentoo is factory assembly line
What does it say about me? I have a French press, and I don't even use it for coffee.
From a sample size of 1 (me) PopOS users prepare their coffee with an Aeropress.
Seconded.
If this holds up, then mint users are rocking a thirty year old one cup drip machine that only has one button, and only makes one regular mug at a time.
Uncanny -- I'm still using the little free drip machine I got with my Gevalia subscription and Mint!
Jfc, that's where I got mine!
Debian user here, something wrong with getting the maximum lifespan you can out of devices and keeping them out of landfills?
Before I upgraded last year, I was still using an i7 from 2010 with 8GB RAM and a 1 TB mechanical spinning drive. I jumped to a 12 core socket AM5 Ryzen 9 with 64GB RAM and a 4TB SSD. When I upgrade, I do it all at once and make sure it can last and actually do use the machine for a decade or more. The one before the i7 (which is now a hand-me-down Minecraft box for my kid) was an Athlon XP from 2002 (still got that one in the basement, any retro collectors wanna clean it out for me? Case comes with big Quake and Nine Inch Nails logo stickers on the front applied by yours truly in my edgier days lol). In the span of 30 years I will have owned exactly three daily driver PCs.
I am totally this meme. My vehicles seem to follow the same pattern as well. Jumping from a tape deck to a touchscreen was fun.
I thought this necromancer thing was a common linux feature... Debian rocks
I have a French Press
Hey y'all, this one is an Apple user!
...but that's a good thing because Apple is certified UNIX.
I'd say French press ≈ Linux Mint.
Intuitive, easy to use and maintain, but despite the lack of fuss still delivers great results.
Where does instant coffee fall in this paradigm?
Containers from dockerhub
Might reevaluate the "instant" part, then.
(I've been using docker for 7 years or so, and it's always some bullshit like undocumented environment variables or bullshit password limitations or broken smtp implementations or the repo just assuming you are the actual dev and giving no fucking instructions at all or the container shitting itself for no motherfucking reason at random times and you try to fix it and it goes well and then you wake up and it's restarted several times through the night...)
(eyes bulging, hyperventilating)
WSL
Any distro on a bootable usb drive. Instant OS, no installation needed, just plug it in.
Slackware.
If you want to learn Ubuntu, download Ubuntu.
If you want to learn Arch, download Arch.
If you want to learn Linux, download Slackware.
As a Ubuntu user, I would never touch a kureig or whatever the hell it is. Those pod things are beyond stupid and you end up needing 2 for a normal sized coffee. Font forget the absurd cost for extra garbage.
Sounds like a great metaphor for Snaps, TBH.
What about the machine that you fill with beans and water and coffee comes out? I have had this thing for 4 years now?
Expensive just for something like coffee: Mac
I got it used for 50€ from a lady who had like 7 parrots just roaming around her 1-room apartment.
No joke, I've had two Keurig machines break on me in the past year. Those machines are trash, built to break. After the second one, I just bought a $10 coffee pot, and it's working great. It's probably going to last me ten years. There's barely any parts to break.
I'm impressed!
I'm in this picture and I like it!
Gentoo gang represent!
I don't drink coffee anymore that's means I shall commit the sin of install Windows again...
I enjoy the memes, but I'm embarrassed to admit I actually don't know what the difference between linux distros are.
The software philosophy of the maintainers and their choice of packages and design.
A simple but important difference: the package-manager: apt, dnf or pacman (there is more but let's bring it down to these three).
Another one is security: apparmor or selinux
The last one are preferred and preinstalled Desktop-Environments.
And if you want to keep it simple, just be based on another distro and let them do the hard work.
Everyone can start their own distro. Manage some packages together, choose for example: Based on Arch, pacman, selinux and hyprland-wm and name it hypearch. Et voila!
I wonder if NixOS is a vacuum coffee maker for how confusing nix looks when you see it for the first time or instant coffee for how reproducible it is...
Didn't miss.
Welp!
No Linux for me I guess.
Hint: :q!
