Do you have a few minutes to talk about our Lord and Saviour, Linus Torvalds?

I heard rumours that there was a giant animal involved in the making of Linus Torvalds. So please refer to him as GNU/Linus, or GNU+Linus.

Totally understandable. Haven't used windows at all, home or work, in at least a decade. However, I went through my insufferable Linux zealot phase about 15 years ago.

I was an annoying judgemental ass, but I got better.

[-] spujb@lemmy.cafe 34 points 2 years ago

proud of you for your growth, and more than that, your willingness to admit so aloud 🙇‍♀️ 👑

[-] Barbarian@sh.itjust.works 18 points 2 years ago

That's not to say that I still don't honestly consider Linux a better option in most use cases. I just don't generally wade in past the most simple explanations of stuff.

If people want to switch, they will. I've realized I'm not doing anyone any favours by being pushy.

[-] spujb@lemmy.cafe 8 points 2 years ago

100% with you

Me at 16, shitting on people who use OSX (iOS wasn’t a thing then)

Now me: oodles of Windows machines, three Linux machines, a Mac laptop, and an iPhone because fuck dealing with custom ROMs

Whenever I read that joke I get sad. His pictures on the Wiki article from 1990 and from 2000 tells one everything.

(If anyone wonders: Yes, I am great at parties.)

[-] hanke@feddit.nu 22 points 2 years ago

Because you seem to have networking capabilities

[-] orphiebaby@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago

I have so many questions about this pantheon you believe in.

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Infinite universes, infinite Hitler's. And Chrome powers them all.

Lemmy ain’t gonna like this. Ain’t gonna like it one bit.

[-] spujb@lemmy.cafe 51 points 2 years ago

i get being passionate but when its every. single. comment. it gets exhausting.

it’s like if i went and commented “BE A VEGAN” under every picture of a burger on c/foodporn. like live your truth!!, but be decent about it for goodness sake.

[-] li10@feddit.uk 27 points 2 years ago

I get it.

Im literally a Linux support guy for a living and even I think people can be obnoxious recommending Linux.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ll shit on Windows when I get the chance, but I get why people either have to use it or just don’t want the hassle of Linux.

IMO it's Redditor behavior. I hate Microsoft and Windows but there are some really annoying, overbearing Linux know-it-alls on Lemmy. It's possible to inform people of Linux without being an annoying asshole

Linux made my computing fun and free again. It's not for everyone but it did spark my interest and finally settled to be happy with the change.

Ymmv, though don't rule it out how anything could impact you personally. Playing the hard to try way might poison any cool potential personal discoveries on your own.

[-] humbletightband@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 2 years ago

I was lucky to be in a few companies that enforce win, Linux and Mac laptops.

In the win company (a pretty big one, everyone has heard of it), they've given me Think pad T14 that had an i3 proc that was falling behind 3 generations.

In the Linux company they've supplied me with a disgusting chromebook, "because everything in the cloud now". Discussed ByOD, worked from my own one.

In the most recent company - the smallest one I've been working in, they've given me a decent M1 Pro with 16 Gb.

So at least, companies that enforce Mac will give you a decent machine to work on.

You def should tho

[-] spujb@lemmy.cafe 28 points 2 years ago

not the scenario i am representing, but thank you for your judgemental and condescending comment 👍

[-] HKayn@dormi.zone 10 points 2 years ago

You perfectly demonstrated why people will never listen to you. Think about it, you'll get it.

Gives one huge reason that is bigger than all those other reasons combined why Linux is just a not an option what so ever
