I’m switching to Debian right away, this is nonsense
You laught
Not gonna lie, that’s concerning.
It may of pissed a lot of people off. Yet people wonder why I have such a strong dislike of Ubuntu.
Now introducing UbuRecall! Do you remember what you clicked on yesterday?
We do!
That’s it, I’m switching to Windows!
Windows 3.11 that is. The last pure Windows there was.
Joke’s on you. It’s basically a dos s shell.
Exactly, that means it hasn’t infected my entire system and is constantly connected and phoning home about my computer usage and browsing habits all day. I can just play Skifree and Minesweeper and not worry about a damn thing.
You forgot gorillas.bas you heathen ;)
It isn’t even connected to anything
Can we modernize 3.11?
Why modernize 3.11 when you can modernize OS/2 Warp instead?
My favorite bit of OS/2 snark from back then was “OS/2 = half an operating system”
an alternate timeline, where Linus didn’t make Linux open source, got rich off of it, and sold it to IBM.
You mean RedHat?
I mean…
They have GUI system upgrades, this is kind of a pain in Debian
Okay, now I updated 12 laptops from Ubuntu 22.04 to 24.04 and…
- it always hangs at “swap deb Thunderbird with snap”, like, always. 12 times.
- the wallpaper is gone after the upgrade, every single time
- there are like 10 buttons to click
- you need to be a sudo user (the updater shows but just vanishes when being a nonsudoer!)
- on 2 machines some random repo issues caused a silent error. Needed to
apt updatein the terminal, fixed - there are tons of snap packages, and all are outdated, yay! Installing those on a sudo account causes them to fail on the nonsudo account.
Damn this is bad. And this is like, the best of the best distros?
Doubt that. Fedora Atomic has way more potential, while only being user friendly as uBlue.
Every couple of years I think to myself “Ubuntu can’t be that bad, can it? I must be misremembering. Surely it’s just some combination of my memory exaggerating how terrible it was and my lackluster Linux skills, which have since improved. Everybody still recommends it as a beginner distro, right? Why’d I stop using it?”
And then I download Ubuntu.
And then I remember.
Ubuntu is very much NOT the best of the distros anymore.
I’ve been using Kinoite on one of my daily drivers, and so far I’m loving it.
Chat is this real?
LPT: In NixOS you can fix this by adding
environment.systemAds.enable = false;to your
configuration.nixfile 😎
Just observing more than anything but this is the same kind of shit people say to leave windows because of.
It is a joke, there are no ads. I just wrote a fake command in the Nix syntax.
Is this real?
Not yet.
I feel like the choice of time of day (24hr clock) for the screenshot might have been an attempt at being prophetic.
So the hell is real
Can you download package with ads for linux? It would be great pair with activate-linux.
just install ublock
uBO!!! ublock is unrelated!!!
