Plot twist: The right side is actually just Linux furries having Vim vs Emacs and X11 vs Wayland debate/fight.
And systemd vs other init systems, FOSS vs open source, GNU or not, Pipewire and PulseAudio, Windows…
Pipewire and PulseAudio
What is pipewire? Shouldn’t this be alsa vs pulseaudio?
Sir, it’s 2024, not 2006.
Pipewire is a more modern replacement for pulseaudio.
Sir, it’s 2024, not 2006.
I have never heard of alsa. Pipewire is supposed to be the better pulseaudio is it not?
Alsa is the very base of the Linux audio system. Pipewire and pulseaudio run on top of it. Back before pulseaudio it was directly used by software
ah got it
People are fighting over Wayland vs X11? I thought X11 wasn’t dropped specifically for compatibility?
Plot twist: the “wolves” are just furries going to a major infosec conference, and will also talk endlessly about Linux
And about how they penetrated disney so hard with their hairy giant cocks, lol
Do you realize you could simply not type a comment about hairy giant cocks?
Yes
Definitely next to Linux guy. I’ve been working on Linux since very early days, so I don’t talk about it because at this point it is as core to my life as knowing how to brush teeth. Nothing would entertain me more than to spend a flight giving that guy the ole “ummmm…actually”.
No, you’re the Linux guy this image macro is about.
Oh, I’ll bore you to death talking about stuff, just not Linux.
I would love to sit next to you gaining Linux knowledge!
Could you give us your opinions on what you would change about bash if you could go back in time and just decide how it was?
Me, avoiding that hornets nest.
Add a 30-second delay after every command to make it harder for hackers
You convinced me; “Pack of wolves, please?”
Emacs or vi?
nano
Heathen!
Obviously vi.
I’ll sit beside him, put in my IEMs so I can’t hear him and reimage my steam deck with windows 11 just to make him squirm.
Oh, hi Satan.
So You Have Chosen Death
Wait, you carry Win11 installation media with you? Who let you out of Arkham Asylum?
This might be one of the few scenarios where the wolves feel bad for him and eat you anyway.
The wolves are the ones that gave me the windows installation media.
Amos was goated
Seat 2. The guy in seat 1 already uses Linux, so someone ought to tell the wolves.
Oh, when I entered the plane side 1 was still empty
Well this is lemmy, nearly everyone is the Linux guy. Personally I would definitely sit next to the Linux guy because I would love to nerd out with someone else about Linux for 10 hours.
There’s an easy way to solve the hungry wolf problem. Which also solves the other.
Feed the Linux bros to the wolves.
*I use BSD, btw.
I thought it would’ve been for you and the Linux guy to grab the people in first class to feed to the wolves…
We tried that first. Wolves were still hungry.
You say that, but what if they use Manjaro.
Then they won’t be able to talk because their SSL cert has expired
Hear me out.
The Wolves got through the airport checkpoints without any issues.
And what do you imply?
It was an argument in favor of the wolves. In fact, there is no implication at all, it was very blatant.
I’ll sit next to 1, and I’ll spend the entire flight talking to him about my .NET setup on Windows and how to date Visual Studio is still the best IDE available for any mainstream programming language.
The good old lying approach, I see.
Name an IDE that is better.
i somehow feel this might be sort of a vim-vim situation 😁
Aside from being boomer tech, I’d say that both are text editors.
Have you heard of our lord and saviour, Delphi?
Oh man. I miss Delphi days.
I wish they’d open source it.
I don’t think anything else comes close for just dropping a bunch of shit on a form and running it.
I haven’t. What’s that and does it come close to neovim?
I think it’s a different beast entirely.
The open source alternative to Delphi is Lazarus if you’re that way inclined.
A lot of Delphi was the work of Anders Hejlsberg, who you might remember from other little known languages such as C# and Typescript.
There is some that are faster and probably lighter and more efficient. But better, no. VSCode takes the cake. I use VSCodium.
VS is not VSCode, not even comparable
You say that as if somebody was disputing that.
I’m more partial to Zed now. I like to type in high FPS.
