  • What little care we can receive is contingent on having a full time job. Putting food on our tables and keeping a roof over our heads is also contingent on having a full time job, if not a second job on top of that. Everyone is working all the time. We don’t have time to go out onto the streets and protest. This is by design. This is our shitty system working exactly as it’s intended, and it’s designed to keep itself intact by forcing the people it fucks over to struggle to survive, so that we’re so preoccupied with existing that we can’t realistically enact change.

    And there is much eye batting, don’t get it twisted. It’s just that batting eyes is about all we have energy for at the end of the day.





  • Lol brother, you were the one that introduced the context of “new Linux users”.

    Linux community: why don’t more people use Linux?

    I’m not whitewashing anything, I’m not being elitist. The only thing I’m trying to say is that if the Linux community wants to attract more users, we should absolutely be turning up our noses at WSL, like Homelander here in this meme. Because it’s a niche tool, not something a new Linux user should be daily driving.



  • How?

    Encouraging the use of WSL to new Linux users is asinine. It’s a niche tool with a shitload of bugs and caveats, not something that should be widely used as a daily driver. It’s not “shitting on” anyone to tell them they shouldn’t be using WSL as their daily driver distro, just like it’s not “shitting on” someone to tell them not to use a hammer to drive in a screw.









  • 184 grams is a touch high for “a cup of flour”, but I’m not gonna check your math, and the comic probably wanted to use “close enough” round-ish numbers. The weight of a cup of flour is usually somewhere between 120g and 145g, going by the conversions used by major baking recipe publishers like King Arthur, Cooks Illustrated, Washington Post, New York Times, etc.
