Oh man, if only... Door-to-door evangelical tech support would be so cool.

- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.

- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content

sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.

"Thanks for coming over, I'm having an issue with-"
"Sorry, that's exactly the same as a totally unrelated issue someone had over in Des Moines. Read the rules before we knock on your door next time."
This is just IT Catholicism.
No thanks I will stick to Orthodoxy

Oh IGNUtius, Patron of the Code Divine, Bless our Linux journey, make it shine. Guard our systems, keep them free, From malware's grasp, forever be.
Steadfast Saint, with open source embrace, Grant stability, let bugs erase. In your FOSS realm, may we thrive, Under your guidance, we shall strive.
With Pacman's grace, our packages align, Arch commands echo, your blessings entwine. IGNUtius, hear our plea, For safe computing, we look to thee.
With gratitude and open hearts, we say, Guide us on this Linux way.
Going to get real weird when the Red Hat guys start a crusade against Ubuntu for heresy.
Did you ever hear the tragedy of GNU Linux The Wise? I thought not. Itโs not a story the Windows users would tell you. Itโs a OSS legend. GNU Linux was a Dark Lord of the Open Source, so powerful and so wise he could use sudo to influence the midichlorians to install appsโฆ He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of sudo is a pathway to many apps some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerfulโฆ the only thing he was afraid of was losing his niche status, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.
(I'm a pretender still waiting for my Linux box to arrive. I'm sure someone can do a better job of this)
this is innacurate as it shows a woman linux user

They are holding printed copies of Arch wiki?
Should photoshop thier bibles to be laptops instead.
They're printed copies of all of the GNU man pages.
Or rather, the info pages.
should also include mice, cause touchpads on Linux๐คข๐คฎ
Gotta be Thinkpads of course
Oh, for fsck sake!
This is how I feel when I rant about abandoning Chrome and moving to Firefox so we can save the he open internet from the clutches of Google
Well, I installed Firefox on all of my devices after finding out about the DRM plans, mostly through lemmy.
So you got one person.
I abandoned chrome and went to librewolf, am I doing ok
Please switch your user agent
What should I change it to?
Linux
Alright, I guess I'll have to Google how to do that
Just use the user agent switcher extension. You need to copy Firefox's user agent and paste it in
Isn't that called Linux evangelists?
"We're going door to door to spread the news that this is the year of the Linux desktop."
Aka the rapture
I feel more like a vegan when talking about Linux
