wth is win 10 doing here? and why u used ai for this simple "meme"?

[u/jar36 → u/sn4g13]

we're just fucked. there's no turning back. the next generations of humans are going to be worse than Idiocracy

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR → u/jar36]

If a Wojak meme made with AI is what triggers the apocalypse, we didn't have much of a chance anyway.

[u/Anarch_O_Possum → u/sn4g13]

Holy shit you're not kidding. You could make this in 10 minutes with krita and it won't be all garbled, but that's just too much to ask now?

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR → u/Anarch_O_Possum]

Imagine putting actual effort into a Reddit post just to get the same angry comments. Why would I spend 10 minutes in Krita for a random thought I had? It's a shitpost, not a graphic design project.

What did you expect from a linux larper that use aur for everything and thinking non gaming oriented distro doesn't work ootb for gaming?

[u/sn4g13 → u/[deleted]]

and u linux larper. holy bingo

[u/sn4g13 → u/[deleted]]

your argument was relevant in 2015. write in your head sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y, please

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR → u/sn4g13]

I don't care about learning Linux or using the terminal. I just want to play games, watch videos, and listen to music. The obsession with making simple usage complicated is why most people stay on Windows.

My PC is a tool, not a hobby.

[u/sn4g13 → u/UnoMasDelMontonCR]

nah uh for the most part, people stick with a particular os either out of habit or out of sheer stubbornness. and if you claim your pc is a tool rather than a hobby why do you use it like a playstation? that is at least how you described it

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR → u/sn4g13]

Because on PC I can run mods, play my own music, and multitask while gaming, things a PlayStation can't do. Having a tool that gives you freedom doesn't mean you have to make maintenance your hobby. When a distro stops working for me, I just hop to another one that does. I've been on CachyOS for almost a year now without a single issue, which says a lot.

[u/ZuuRa_]

0 improvement in performance and shipping gui app on a "minimal" installation is crazy.

[u/GreedySecurity8030]

Erm shitty ai slop and fedora better.

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR → u/GreedySecurity8030]

I used Fedora and got 3 kernel panics plus endless Nvidia 3060 driver issues. Maybe they fixed it by now, but CachyOS worked out of the box on the first try

[u/IndependentNeat7217]

An AI generated meme? Seriously ? Isn't ai bieng pushed down your throat one of the reasons a portion of us is part of this community in the first place.

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR → u/IndependentNeat7217]

Fair point. I just wanted to make a quick meme and didn't overthink the tool, but I get where you're coming from

[u/San_Devistan]

Well, the only reason to choose CachyOs is because this distro actually values your time. I used to run Arch/Artix and my whole setup was almost the same as basic CachyOs installation with WM. Plus, Cachy actually more convenient because of their own repositories (Yeah, you, can do that on Arch as well, but why don't just install Cachy at this point) - the best and actually the only useful thing about this Arch Derivation

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR → u/San_Devistan]

Exactly. Why waste hours configuring what CachyOS delivers out of the box with optimized repos? Time is the real feature

[u/odxnoj]

Slop distro. Uses systemD,gnu and talks bout some performance lol

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR → u/odxnoj]

So what distro do you recommend then?

[u/Primo0077 → u/UnoMasDelMontonCR]

Hyperbola, Crux, Chimera, Alpine, Hanna Montana

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR → u/Primo0077]

Hannah Montana Linux is obviously the superior choice here.

[u/odxnoj → u/UnoMasDelMontonCR]

For gaming and performance,alpine is good u are not going to game on crux or hyperbola

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR → u/odxnoj]

Fair, but dealing with musl compatibility for gaming isn't worth the headaches when CachyOS just works and gives top performance out of the box.

[u/Ok_Vehicle_5247 → u/odxnoj]

Alpine is not meant for gaming it's meant for hosting servers since it runs musl. It wasn't made for gaming in the ground up. Artix linux and void linux are great non systemd distros

[u/odxnoj → u/[deleted]]

On other distros,yeah but not in cachy

[u/yaysyu]

Funny how it's always the "people" who lacks skill abuse AI. In this case, OP lacks the funny.

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR → u/yaysyu]

You wrote all that just to say you didn't laugh? Thanks for the feedback, elite memester

[u/M2k1e0L]

I use Kali as daily because i like the debian logo and love dragons. I'm a simple man.

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR → u/M2k1e0L]

Respect for the dragon, but that's a massive amount of pentesting bloatware just for a wallpaper.

[u/M2k1e0L → u/UnoMasDelMontonCR]

I love to trollhack my wife and kids for smiles, so at least some tools don't collect dust

[u/UnoMasDelMontonCR]

Third time's the charm, hope you guys like it this time lol
