Is Proton a Debian-based distro?

Why use Wine? All it does is emulate Windows.

WSL invalidates Linux's existence.

Depends on use case. If Ubuntu is what you yourself like best? Then yeah totally.

I installed WSL, to install Ubuntu, to install Hackintosh, so I could VNC my self into it on my work laptop for testing apps on it.

So yeah, not bad.

You can always tell a Linux user by the body order. Oh and they're all hackers and on a government watchlist.

Edit: odor, not order

How awesome is Windows? I mean the way it runs so smooth…you can like process a lot of processing with the processor. Like if they added AI to the ESC key, that would really be awesome.

They have had their Store for over 10 years now. I envy you if you haven't had to deal with Windows for so long. It's not even user-friendly anymore, it just hates it's users and constantly tries to scam you with ads and pop-ups

Tbf if you’ve only used windows at home and not for work, it was pretty easy to just not know about the Microsoft store at all until pretty recently.

I used windows all the way up to last year and only found out about the windows store after swapping to Linux

My body order is head, shoulders, knees and toes (knees and toes). I have no idea how that flags me as a Linux user.

How to piss off a Linux guy in 3 steps:

Step 1: Use Windows

Step 2: Encounter a computer problem and ask the Linux guy for a solution.

Step 3: When they say they don't know Windows, mock them for being so stupid despite staying in the terminal playing pretend hackerman all day.

Ugh you don't need to write 30 million lines of code to install a browser. You need to compile 30 million lines of code to install a browser. 🙄

Wouldn't call it bad ass. It was just a bit weird installing a bad OS on a nice OS on an evil OS.

Also, there are good instructions online to achieve this.

A good one is saying windows is the best Linux distro because you can just run exes straight from the shell

~/dev/foo $ msbuild.exe MyProject2026UltimatePro.sln | grep Error(s)

Try it and confirm there is no god

No love for YYYY-MM-DD?

If you see a date in that format, it's pretty unambiguous.

That's just what an Arch user would say.

Given the reference, it would have been a decent burn if you'd said Mint or Ubuntu.

I'm an LMDE user which is a sliver more advanced, but not by much. The song might even fit better. I can point at and name parts of the system and maybe even work with them, but most of the time someone else is looking after me.

Days are shorter than months, which are shorter than years.

Makes sense to go with smallest to largest.
