Linux and FreeBSD have cute mascots. Windows has… What? A Window shaped flag? An annoying paperclip?
Oy, don’t shit on clippy.
He only ever wanted to help >:(
i think they used to have anime girl mascots, not sure if win11 has one tho.
And Mac has an old fruit that someone’s already taken a bite of
not an apple fan, but this guys cute :3
I always figured those were two guys …?
The Picasso mom has at home
The Mac logo is the original format of the “L stares at Light” meme.
I keep thinking about giving NixOS a go, but do I really want another job of maintaining my own system? could like read more books instead, or get better at piano, may be spend time with living breathing humans.
someone walk me from the ledge
Well, i’m probably not the right person to do that for you lol. I’ve daily driven NixOS for well over a year, however at the moment i’m actually working on a GNU Guix config in a vm lmao.
I mean you don’t have to. You can have the most boring and basic NixOS setup ever. That’s what I did. But then I thought what’s the point?
Me, I just gave up after that tbh. I’m too lazy to go beyond that. Seems quite tedious that allbut like, you can version control your entire os config how cool is that. I do agree its… time-consuming, which is why I haven’t jumped in yet
Time consuming at first, but reinstalling a system is a breeze after that. I reckon nixOS has saved me so much more time than all the config tweaks put together.
do you reinstall your system often? i installed my system in 2022 right after slackware 15.0 released, never reinstalled since. even when switching hardware i just have to update/modify the kernel, nothing else.
I only had to reinstall my desktop once due to hard drive failure. My laptop’s main use is testing out other distros, so I frequently put nixOS back on there when I need the laptop for a weekend away.
I’d imagine it also being great for servers, but due to proxmox templates and snapshots, I’ve never needed to reinstall there.
This. I don’t see where the benefit of NixOS even is.
Everything in Linux is a file. You can literally just copy your system to a new drive, rebuild initramfs and fstab, and boot it.
Nah, we’d love to see you cook. Hell, you could hook up your piano keyboard to your PC and experiment with music creation or using MIDI for keyboard shortcuts (can be fun to try to game with lol)
But NixOS is so cool though. I use NixOS btw
One thing I’ve just noticed: why is Tux holding his foot?
So he doesn’t roll backwards?
hot a f
sudo hot -af
I love Tux.
The first season of this show (13 reasons why) was somewhat palatable and was at times maybe even an okay show. The following seasons descended into some of the best hate watching, career destroying garbage you’ve ever seen, if you’re into that kind of thing.
Gentoo is the best system, I love it so much.
I love using arch btw
