Don't be elitist. You were a noob once, and someone helped you along the way.

The more people who leave corporate platforms, the better. Punch up, not down.

[-] bhamlin@lemmy.world 44 points 5 days ago

someone helped you

New to the FOSS community, eh? ๐Ÿ˜‰

[-] Geodad@lemm.ee 16 points 5 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Been here since Fedora Core 5.

The FOSS community is awesome, if you hang out on the right IRCs.

[-] chainysawrs@lemmy.world 9 points 5 days ago

Sometimes you just need to be told to โ€œread the manualโ€

[-] markovs_gun@lemmy.world 35 points 5 days ago

The meme is poking fun at elitism.

[-] Geodad@lemm.ee 12 points 5 days ago

Ah, ok. I'm a bit neurodivergent, so I sometimes miss the tone of memes.

[-] haui_lemmy@lemmy.giftedmc.com 20 points 5 days ago

Last sentence shows you're the real hero.

What the hell kind of setup are you working with that doesn't have touch?

[-] kurumin@linux.community 1 points 12 hours ago

One could say they are out of... touch. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

[-] CannedCairn@lemmy.world 31 points 5 days ago

As a 20 year Linux user I cringed at this.

That's the purpose

[-] bier@feddit.nl 4 points 4 days ago

Exactly the same, what kind of lame bs is this, the best thing about the Linux community is that people help each other, not for money or fake internet points, but because they are good people.

I know this is a joke but I genuinely get annoyed by people who seriously believe this.

While yโ€™all were beating your chests over PC operating systems, I was simply browsing lemmy on my phone.

[-] termaxima@programming.dev 24 points 5 days ago

I hope the point is that it is as idiotic as the original. WTF did the original guy study the blade for, if not to protect other people from the barbarians ? Is he really so bad at the blade he can only protect himself ? Then I guess maybe he really did need to train all that time after all ๐Ÿ˜†

[-] andybytes@programming.dev 13 points 4 days ago

Windows is the virus.

[-] Captain_J@lemmy.world 25 points 5 days ago

As a linux user myself, this is kind of cringe to be honest.

[-] greywolf0x1@lemmy.ml 15 points 5 days ago

It is a meme? ๐Ÿ˜’๐Ÿ˜’๐Ÿ˜’

[-] DannyBoy@sh.itjust.works 17 points 5 days ago

No, it's a very serious post that has to be taken literally.

This isn't the original image and that sword doesn't really look like it goes with that scabbard. Did someone recreate/enhance the image with AI?

The original:

I find it amussing that tech bros think the average home user will care.... They'll keep using Win 10 like nothing has changed. I knew people still happily using XP in 2014...

[-] millie@slrpnk.net 7 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

For those who aren't already aware, you can continue to get Windows 10 security updates after EOS, as well as updates for legacy windows systems, with 0patch. That's what I plan on doing. https://0patch.com/

[-] reksas@sopuli.xyz 6 points 4 days ago

I thought they specifically planned to end the security updates to force people to use win11

You can also overcome your Stockholm syndrome and ditch the trash for good.

Unfortunately there are a few things that keep me from switching to Linux.

  • The drivers for my mouse don't work properly
  • JACK is not a substitute for Voicemeeter
  • JACK's latency makes it less suitable for recording guitar
  • I use FL Studio
  • I need access to a Windows testing environment
  • Having to suddenly troubleshoot in Linux completely breaks my flow
[-] wpb@lemmy.world 17 points 5 days ago

I'm kind of surprised at the number of people taking this post seriously.

[-] Richat@lemmy.ml 17 points 5 days ago

Lemmy is SRS BUZINESS!!!

How about you sudo apt install deodorant and maybe a life :3

[-] SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 32 points 5 days ago

Sudo apt install edge

[-] fullovellas@lemm.ee 12 points 5 days ago

Why is everyone so sure that W10 support ending will have its users stampede towards Linux? I think most users don't care about support and will happily run an outdated OS. They'll probably switch to Apple if they are concerned with that. Am I being too pessimistic?

[-] leaf 5 points 4 days ago

We will get thousands more new users at least and I saw a poster in my local university about a install linux on your pc event.

Excel is basically a bunch of CLIs.

:'(

Also GIMP skills, not to be mistaken with gimp skills (tho there is some overlap in users).

[-] shiroininja@lemmy.world 16 points 5 days ago

This is absolutely top tier

[-] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 14 points 5 days ago

How do I open an exe file in Mint ya smelly nerds??

[-] Lembot_0002@lemm.ee 32 points 5 days ago

Vim or wine. Depends on what you call "open".

Gimp = green is my pepper

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 2 points 4 days ago

Wait, was the scabbard always curved in this image?

[-] pelya@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago

Hey don't bash Excel, it can run Linux too, although heavily stripped Risc-V version.

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง Language/ัะทั‹ะบ/Sprache

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.
