  • 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. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    I don't get it.

    Archlinux goes in the water at night, but neofetch shocks a reasonable person into silence, because it reveals ...? cachyos or btrfs or the DE ???

    Here’s my interpretation (probably way off): This is in a manga chapter about a teacher who is recounting a day where students were let out early due to a typhoon in the area. She was driving down the road making sure students weren’t outside and everyone was safe when she noticed a student’s book bag was left on the side of the road. She got out to make sure the student was safe. She then noticed the student (Kurose) who was marked as absent during class that day with another girl holding hands looking like they were about to commit suicide, so she tries to run down to help stop them. Now, in the image OP posted (meme format? Never seen it) they seem to be likening opening neofetch to “losing” (as they say in their caption above) the user. Maybe the OP has an aversion to Arch Linux users who use neofetch? Maybe it has to do with the things they do that change what neofetch sees? I don’t know.

    I thought it was saying that CachyOS is an imposter Arch Linux. Like that classic horror trope where the MC approaches a person they know from behind only for that person to turn around and reveal their a monster.

    Thanks for the explanation.

    I think I have a problem making sense of my memes. People can't read my mind

    This meme means that the love of using neotech is the first step to using cli programs not for functions but for beauty

    Programs such as cava, btop, cmatrix, hollywood with tiling window managers and wayland compositors and post screenshots to unixporn

    The meme is not trying to say that arch-based distros are bad, or that I hate the arch users, I just didn’t want to use someone's neofetch screenshoot and used mine with cachyos with a flag giving the arch logo

    It seems self explanatory for me, but I'm high rn so idk. It seems like the girl in this picture is saying that it's dangerous to try Arch. But when the other character gets to the water and the neofetch can be seen as a sign of successful install, she knows she lost them to Arch.
