    I like Linux. I like Linux users. I don’t like people who think Linux is the only viable OS to use, though. That’s just obnoxious and exhausting.

    If every prostitute approached you and had to tell you how much better she is at something than your current SO/wife, you should ditch your SO in favor of prostitutes, even though you’re not there for service.

    Then it would be like Lemmy.

    It’s contagious. I caught the Linux over the weekend. It’s the Kubuntu strain of the disease, so I think it’s a mild case. But there’s always a risk it can spread to full-blown Arch.

          Yeah I remember this. Though I thought it was even older than 2011. But maybe I’m confusing this with some redhat/fedora based distro some hardware manufacturer was shipping OEM with their x86 desktops around 2007. Can’t think of the name. But anyway that page you link shows an update from just last month. Though it sounds like it’s written by a bot. I’d wonder if it’s full of Chinese malware.

                I like the idea of pronouncing it hook-ai-rs just for the implications on Ubers becoming u-bears.

                “U-bears for hook-ai-rs” makes me chuckle. It’s just the right amount of churches up.

            You know… That’s not a bad idea.

            We had call girls back in the 80s and 90s. They were good as long as you had some blow.

            Now, I’m not so sure. I guess they are traveling onlyfans blowing through metro cities like tumbleweeds.

        Escorts are luxury accessories you take to upscale events for “smoozin & boozin”.

        They’ll even fuck you if you gain their interest or are rich enough. Think of them like geisha. Beautiful, seductive, multifaceted and cultured.

            I honestly cannot tell you the last time I ran windows to do anything. Like I’ll have to do some tinkering on the steam deck soon for the first time in a long time to get the sims playing for my SO, but that is still way easier then maintaining another whole OS, especially like windows where they hit my fam with UX updates that piss them off.

    I don’t care how many people use it, but it seems to pop up (unwarranted) in darned near every sub I’m in. Enjoying something is fine, but it’s best to not let any single thing become your identity or define you as a person.

    I don’t care that Linux is talked about here. It’s just insufferable having people commenting with this superior attitude about it making it seem like the second coming. It’s just as bad as aggressive vegans and cryptobros.
