    I wonder if NixOS is a vacuum coffee maker for how confusing nix looks when you see it for the first time or instant coffee for how reproducible it is...

    I'm impressed!

    I'm in this picture and I like it!

    Gentoo gang represent!

    I use Fedora and I don't understand this

    I just want to pound my coffee and get to work. I finally gravitated to Fedora because it's clean and just works. Too much setup on my Arch and Gentoo installs with way too much breakage. It's fun to customize and tweak distros like those to an obsessive degree, until you actually need to get work done.

    Debian user here, something wrong with getting the maximum lifespan you can out of devices and keeping them out of landfills?

    Before I upgraded last year, I was still using an i7 from 2010 with 8GB RAM and a 1 TB mechanical spinning drive. I jumped to a 12 core socket AM5 Ryzen 9 with 64GB RAM and a 4TB SSD. When I upgrade, I do it all at once and make sure it can last and actually do use the machine for a decade or more. The one before the i7 was an Athlon XP from 2002. In the span of 30 years I will have owned exactly three daily driver PCs.

    I am totally this meme. My vehicles seem to follow the same pattern as well. Jumping from a tape deck to a touchscreen was fun.

    I thought this necromancer thing was a common linux feature... Debian rocks

    As a Ubuntu user, I would never touch a kureig or whatever the hell it is. Those pod things are beyond stupid and you end up needing 2 for a normal sized coffee. Font forget the absurd cost for extra garbage.

    Sounds like a great metaphor for Snaps, TBH.

    What about people who prefer tea?

    From a sample size of 1 (me) PopOS users prepare their coffee with an Aeropress.

    I'd say French press ≈ Linux Mint.

    Intuitive, easy to use and maintain, but despite the lack of fuss still delivers great results.

    Hey y'all, this one is an Apple user!

    ...but that's a good thing because Apple is certified UNIX.

    [–] [email protected] 21 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

    If this holds up, then mint users are rocking a thirty year old one cup drip machine that only has one button, and only makes one regular mug at a time.

    Help me choose a distro!

    My coffee preparation method is:

    I drink this one kind of instant coffee that does not even need me to heat the water, I can just mix it in cold water and be good with it. It's still coffee and I don't have to make the slightest effort.

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

    In this case the distro doesn't matter. Just have someone else install and maintain it for you.

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 2 hours ago

    That is I guess Windows:

    • Installed by the manufacturer
    • "Maintained" by M$

    Just joking tho, I run Fedora, even lazy people have standards.

    I use Artix, but hate coffee altogether and would rather drink southern iced tea, what does that say?

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

    Same here. I think we're Puppy Linux or XUbuntu maybe? I'm trying to pick a distro that's different, while also killing conversations among enthusiasts... Because all of my coffee enthusiast conversations inevitably die when I I mention tea.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

    Southern iced tea is Lindows. Does anyone remember Lindows? It's called Linspire now.

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

    What about instant coffee? Arch user btw

    [–] [email protected] 7 points 3 hours ago

    Error. Does not compute. Instant coffee implies Microsoft Windows user. fzzt fzzt Bang

    [–] [email protected] 8 points 5 hours ago

    No joke, I've had two Keurig machines break on me in the past year. Those machines are trash, built to break. After the second one, I just bought a $10 coffee pot, and it's working great. It's probably going to last me ten years. There's barely any parts to break.

    Orange for Linux:

    Orange is a powerful platform to perform data analysis and visualization, see data flow and become more productive. It provides a clean, open-source platform. It was developed by The  University of Ljubljana under the GPLv3 license.

    Ljubljana is the capital and largest city of Slovenia, located along a trade route between the northern Adriatic Sea and the Danube region, north of the country's largest marsh, inhabited since prehistoric times.

    Where does instant coffee fall in this paradigm?

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago

    Any distro on a bootable usb drive. Instant OS, no installation needed, just plug it in.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

    I use Ubuntu and drink instant, in both cases because I can't be bothered to expend more than minimum effort.

    Might reevaluate the "instant" part, then.

    (I've been using docker for 7 years or so, and it's always some bullshit like undocumented environment variables or bullshit password limitations or broken smtp implementations or the repo just assuming you are the actual dev and giving no fucking instructions at all or the container shitting itself for no motherfucking reason at random times and you try to fix it and it goes well and then you wake up and it's restarted several times through the night...)
