I am a person online.
Thank you! This year’s even harder, but I’m hanging on!
As someone who’s not a developer at all and has been making a comic about systemd for a rather small audience, it’s worse than you think: We actually have stuff to do and procrastinate on them while spending time and thoughts in this, reading old blog posts and forum debates as if deciphering Sumerian epic poems. Many pages were made while I was supposed to be preparing for exams, which I barely passed. Others when I should’ve been cleaning up for moving. I think part of the reason why I haven’t made any in a while is that with a faithful audience being born and waiting for the next chapter, it’s started feeling like something I had to do, and therefore, the type of stuff I procrastinate on.
There you go create another fable
Tbf, Unbuntu works, but they’re ran by a company which has made some questionable choices. You can still go with it if you don’t care too much, it has the advantages of being user friendly and well documented.
If you’d rather not, but you want something not too far and equally easy, you can go with Linux Mint, which is based on Ubuntu but disables snaps. They also offer differently choices of desktop environments, the default being Cinnamon (which looks a bit more like windows), and another being Mate, which is closer to Gnome.
They also have a “Debian Edition”, which aims to stop being dependant on Ubuntu and may or may not replace the default edition someday, but so far it’s not the one they recommend for new users.
Debian the first time I think it’s best.
Thanks!
I’ve thought about including Shepherd in the narrative at some point, but ther’s another character scheduled to appear before. Shepherd isn’t really at the center of this narrative, so they might not appear if I decide to make the story shorter.
Could be a X.org too

I guess I could upload the kra files (there are four of them since I made each panel separately, exported them to png and arranged them a fourth krita doc). Tho if I did that, would it even count as open source? A .kra file isn’t really a source code, it’s an archive that contains binaries.
He’ll get very virulent in the X vs Wayland debate before he even learns what these mean.
Keep breaking my system while trying to fix bugs, then fix or reinstall, distro-hop when I’m out of bugs, call it permanent revolution.
I heard a guy once tried to make his Linux work without compiling Hannah Montana Linux. It was obviously a failure from the start, but the madman raged on. In his hubris, he obstinately weaved lines of code to make something… Anything that would seem to function as an OS, at least from the surface, no matter what cursed and bloated horrors laid beneath.
An insane smile cracked on his face as lightning in the night sky as he’d finally made his monitor display a pop-up window that read “hello world”. Soon he’d ironed out the details of all the other stuff an OS was supposed to do, an released his abomination upon the market… Keeping it closed source so no-one could see what sacrilege he’d done to get there, and also so that he could make a buttload of money.
Thus was born Microsoft Windows.
I wonder what would offend Linus more: A version of the Linux Kernel with C++ or one that breaks the userspace…
