Is it true? What is the best way to convert to the gospel of St. IGNUcius?

Who's forcing anyone to use Linux?

[-] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 36 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I do! I break into people's apartments, beat them up a little bit and I say that I'll be back in a couple of months and if I will see them using Windows I will kill them. Works like a charm.

Guess we all need a hobby.

What do you do if I'm using Linux already? Beat my ass a little and then cuddle with me in bed?

[-] Malix@sopuli.xyz 19 points 2 days ago

You're obviously using a wrong distro. Beatings will continue as planned.

You are going to have to pry CachyOS out of my cold dead hands then.

How did you know? Did we meet?

[-] HerbGrower@slrpnk.net 3 points 2 days ago

What if you come back and they have a macbook?

[-] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 4 points 2 days ago

I would tell you what happens to those people but I don't want to give you nightmares.

Probably various workplaces. Just like lots of them force you to use Windows.

Personal machines, yep, it's all a choice.

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

It's a normal thing that you work with whatever your workplace pays you to work with.

You see, when people complain about Windows online, and others jokingly suggest to switch to Linux, that is practically forcing people to switch, OR ELSE! /s

I have a car issue could you guys have a quick look?

Sell your car and switch to a bike

Well I use my car for client visits. I try to use the bike more but some clients are very far away and it is impossible to use the bike.

Ah so you already have a bike. Just sell your car and use the bike 100%. No car no car issues. Simple as that. Btw I use a bike

[-] copygirl 1 points 1 day ago

How dare they steal your work car and replace it with a bike! /s

Yeah, no. These comments are annoying at worst, but again, nobody is being forced to use Linux.

The opposite (people being forced to use Windows) is more likely to be the case.

Try troubleshooting something windows related on Lemmy. I dare you.
