Me being an arch using vegan with a man-bun makes this feel like a personal attack.

But once I get my new arch setup working I'll install gimp on it and create a meme making fun of you!

And you’ll finally get your sound working on your new laptop after weeks of messing with pulse audio and realizing you just needed to install sof-firmware but didn’t scroll far enough in the wiki to see that, but now your pulse audio config is so messed up it’s just easier to reinstall Arch again

Step 1: install pipewire

there is no step 2

I won't stand for the vegan bashing

[-] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 44 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I'm vegan for health reasons and I have yet to meat one of the infamous vegans the stereotype portrays. I ask questions, look for recipes, etc, and everyone has been super nice. I think "those vegans" live primarily on Twitter and Reddit.

PS: I've had a working Linux system in daily use since I started back with Red Hat Halloween and I prefer Debían based installs like Pop!_OS and Mint D. Nothing against Arch but I ain't got time to fight the OS as well as my work.

EDIT: The typo stays.

I’ve met one or two. It’s like fine, it’s a major lifestyle change often associated with ethics that sets you aside from most of society. Many folks have a period of a few months to a year or two of being really annoying about shit like that. It happens with all sorts of folks: linux and arch users, freshly out queer people, people getting into polyamory, new converts to religions… frankly atheists and people who just converted to Christianity are the worst about it in my experience. And yeah these people are annoying. You’ve been annoying too I’m sure, we all have, it’s part of being a person and the people being annoying about these things are typically doing so at an age where some variant of that is a common experience

This dead horse is pulp by now

[-] 018118055@sopuli.xyz 52 points 9 months ago

If we keep beating it for long enough, thermodynamics says it might spontaneously turn back into a horse.

[-] el_bhm@lemm.ee 21 points 9 months ago

And that horse will be using arch btw.

I use Arch, BTW.

I feed on your hatred.

[-] _cnt0@sh.itjust.works 43 points 9 months ago

I can feel your anger. It makes you stronger, gives you focus.

[-] MycoBro@lemmy.world 82 points 9 months ago

I’ll never forget the first time I successfully installed arch and got my I3 set up juuust like I wanted it. It felt like I did something. It was great. Fuck you!

[-] _cnt0@sh.itjust.works 52 points 9 months ago

Fuck you, too 😘

Needs a Steam Deck owner in the corner playing games, wearing headphones, and ignoring all questions.

[-] _cnt0@sh.itjust.works 42 points 9 months ago

I might have created this long before Steam Deck was a thing and just reposted it for fake internet points.

I love how "unbiased" it is and I'm not even an arch user.

[-] _cnt0@sh.itjust.works 22 points 9 months ago

Yah, I'm a huge fan of factual content. Biased people suck.

No way the Fedora user figured out how to configure partitions in the installer without having to google it at least five times! I've installed Fedora a few times over the years, and that UI still makes no sense to me!

When did all the 13 year old Redditors invade Lemmy?

[-] the_one@lemmy.world 33 points 9 months ago

I would be so proud of my 13 year old cousin knew this much about Linux.

Debian guy could have just downloaded the nonfree installer that includes some common wifi and other hardware firmwares. There are some pragmatists at Debian.

[-] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 21 points 9 months ago

Also... It's included in all versions starting with Bookworm.

I actually encoutered this the other day.

Me: "Yeah I need reliability for work and sometimes I just don't have time to repair stuff. Last time I was on rolling release some update fucked my system right before an important deadline"

Other person: "It wOn'T bReAk If YoU UndErStANd iT"

._.

Anyway stable is awesome

I'll have you know that I eat a vegetarian not vegan diet and I really don't have a man bun (got no hair for that) ... The stickers on the laptop however really felt like you took a photo of my machine.

Also if it wasn't obvious I run arch

man I knew this was going to be rough when I saw him wearing a vegan shirt but god DAMN

"All Arch users are stupid vegan crossfitters who never shut up and contribute nothing to society and the only thing they ever care about is making their desktop look l33t and Arch is a horrible distro and did I mention all Arch users are stupid?"

Oh. My. Sides.

I switched from Ubuntu to Arch because I was sick of packages not compiling due to a complete lack of dependency management. I use stock KDE with zero frills and I spend most of my time hacking on open source projects. I never tell anyone what OS I use (unless they ask for recommendations for their new machine, and I'm prepared to also tell them why I personally prefer it) because they don't care. I'm a normal guy who keeps myself to myself and hates the people who think a pretty desktop is more important than a usable system just as much as everyone else.

However, I use Arch, and Arch bad, which means I must be the most annoying person on the planet.

If that's a first install, then sure. Otherwise... There was a speedrun installing arch under 2 min...

Might just be an old comic. The above was true a few years ago, but not so much anymore.

I've tried Arch before. I don't really remember it being a hassle. I've even installed Gentoo but never used it. Sabayon was the good shit.

Any place of discourse that incorporates the term 'master race' in its name is a place I give a wide berth.

Anyone here remember when people would say "I use debian btw" ?

[-] kttnpunk@lemmy.world 20 points 9 months ago

I've found Garuda pretty much gets you all the perks of Arch without the drawbacks and installs just as quickly as debian if not faster. And I love ancient Linux memes as much as anybody but neither Debian or fedora is much to write home about nowadays IMHO.

Honestly this is the reason I want an immutable build of Arch like NixOS.

Let me roll back my mistakes and I could live more happily with rolling release.

I quit using Arch after about ten years of using it because Team Fortress 2 quit working and none of the resolutions on protondb fixed my issue.

Priorities, people.
