When you haven't told anyone you use Linux for a while

To be fair. This can be applied to apple and windows users sometimes.

How rich of you to think us Linux users have someone to talk to.
- Some of us do, but you can see their eyes glaze over the moment you mention Linux...
  
  Have you heard the good word of our Lord and savior....
- That's not correct. I have plenty of people to talk to. They don't talk at me back though.
I have to use windows at my new job, and I hate it so much. Have I said that in the last few minutes?
- Yeah, about 4 minutes ago
  
  Thank god I got it out in time.
  Windows sucks balls.
I use Arch BTW.
- I will install arch soon on my host.
  The arch linux experience (in the vm) is great so far. Just search if you need help, install corresponding software for something to work, etc.
I don’t even need to say it anymore. Every single time a coworker, friend, or family member expresses frustration with Windows in my vicinity, I just shoot them a snarky glance and they preemptively tell me to shut up. ❤️
open a terminal and enter the command:
yes I am using Linux
- U R using yes the wrong way.
  
  $ yes no
- Don't know how to type uname -a ?
I saw this, told my cats, and felt better
- I feel worse because I don’t have cats and you do have cats. It’s a catastrophe.
  
  step one: put food bowl out and refill it on a constant schedule
  there is no step two
  Edit: listing is hard
- Did they switch to Linux?
  
  They can do the cat command. I may have moved a paw to help
- Warning: useless use of cat
I use glorious Nixos.
This is not a recommendation. It is an abusive relationship. Do not install nixos without research.
- NixOS is a dangerous drug, but at least it's a drug without side effects, since Nix is purely functional.
My brother jokes about this referring to me, but lately he has been noticing the power of Linux and FOSS, he switched to Lichess from Chess.com and immediately noticed the benefits and how the are totally worth the downsides.
He also noticed how quick my system is, and how cool is that I can hibernate my laptop.
I just hope my efforts make them all switch (at least their personal computers) to Linux at some point.
- I'm as much a Linux fan as you, but windows computers also hibernate without issue
  
  I just want real S3 sleep back, Windows or Linux… “modern standby” blows
  
  I guess so, but can one set it up from the installer? Asking geniunely.
  
  My Linux laptop hibernates just fine...
top left pic is the same girl in the meme about the guy watching another girl while walking with her GF ?
I'm using MX Linux BTW
Hey guys, I use Linux Mint btw!
- I been thinking about trying pop! OS, anyone got reviews?
  
  Not as good as Mint for me
Nobody brags about windows lmao
- Not these days, at least.
  I did go around telling people how much better 7 was over Vista at the time, though.
It's like the Crossfit of tech
For Arch users it's only 5 minutes. MX Linux users it's 3 1/2 minutes.
Edit: I actually meant to say NixOS users, but MX Linix users probably feel the same.
Holy crap maybe that's why I've been in such a trash mood for a few weeks
Btw I don't use Arch
Been actively suffocating for 10min
Akshually its called GNU/Linux 🤓
I'm still on Windows 10. Sure would love a reason to switch...
You fucking fiends.
- It's actually really easy, the best is to start with Linux From Scratch. That's how you get a couple of hours of heartwarming fun and games.
  Start on your grandmother's PC she can join the fun
  
  Great, thanks. But isn't she going to be confused by the lack of anything to click on? She doesn't know how to "hack" or "code" or whatever you Linux brainiacs do lol...?
  
  games
  On Linux?
I dunno, I've never head anyone evangelize Windows.
Apple, yes. But honestly Linux users seem to have overtaken Apple users with their evangelizing.
Switching to Linux desktop was last years news. Now I go around telling everyone about my Linux server (Debian BTW).
Replace “Linux” with “arch” and then it’s golden.
- Change it from minutes to seconds and make it Nix.
As a basic bitch Mint user, I like seeing the meme using women instead of the usual men! Didn't even know I wanted that.
- Mint ftw.
I feel personally attacked by this post.
Told the wasps outside and they stung me for my insolence.
https://screamintothevoid.com/
I just go here everyday and tell it, the void doesn't judge, it just accepts and disregards.
I use Mint btw.
In panel 3 is that two people collectively performing CPR with one hand each? Is that something that people do?
- That is just one person with their hands woven together. You can see the part of the hand coming out of the sleeve of the white coat of the other person the CPR person is next to.
  What concerns me more is how she went from CPR to being on a CPAP sleep apnea machine in Panel 4.
- Its just like in movies having scenes where they add a second keyboard to type faster.
  And they show the screen doing an apt-get upgrade
I haven’t mentioned Linux for decades
You should make a meme about tech corporations spending billions to advertise their products
slackware btw
hahaha joke's on you all. i wait until there's some essential thing i need to do (like installing a program for work, school, etc) and then if it doesn't work because it's only for windows i tell them
or if they ask, but that hasn't happened yet
i ve been forced to use windooze, help me
- Here: https://bellard.org/jslinux/vm.html?url=alpine-x86.cfg&mem=192 Quick!
Yeah, well so.
Quietly: I run a Linux server at home.
I use windows and Mac os
Mint users specifically
Looks more like the reaction by those randos who seem to think everything on the internet is made by AI.
I use kubuntu btw
Head tilt and jaw thrust when bag valve masking
- I loved that part as well as her post ROSC CPAP, rather than intubation. lol
