I guess this is the end.

No problem here, destroying Windows is in our second nature.
No problem getting out, MS keeps Windows broken.
Sudo pkill -9 fire
permission denied
This incident will be reported.
I’ve still never bothered to figure out where this is reported… it’s been 15 years.
Oof. Should we tell him what he's in store for, guys?
15 years... god im so sorry for what's to come.
I don't need windows, wine will save me
tosses wine on fire
fire gets bigger
Laughs, as still better than using windows 🤣🤣
Well, to be fair, Windows will refuse to open before like fifteen updates so your fate is sealed regardless.
I was told firejail is more secure. This is fine.
I'll just spin up a VM real quick.
No leaving before you git push, you'd better start working on those merge conflicts!
git push --force
You should be working on your own branch anyway.
Not even once.
That also looks like me on the rare occasion my laptop will randomly go from whatever brightness I set to maximum brightness with no way to change it back manually. Still have no clue why it happens, but at least I can put my laptop to sleep and fix the problem.
It's all okay at long as you have wine with you
the comments are funny, but is the meme?
this incident will be reported.
Better to die on your feet than live using Windows or whatever
lp0 on fire
Gotta run pacman -Syu one more time real quick then I'll uninstall the windows
Windows are not the problem.
Microsoft Windows' legal restrictions and source-unavailablity is the problem.
Do not confuse the two.
Windows are important for GNU+Linux users too.
As in: "Never trust a computer you cannot defenestrate."
Like if it catches fire. Better to throw it out a window, than let the house catch fire.
Anyone ever consider how stupid the name Windows is for Microslop's OS.
Well, it started out as a basic windowing system for DOS, so...
Yeah Microsoft Graphical Boxes makes some sense I suppose. Windows? No, sorry they are not windows.
Why not paintings, canvas, boards, or any other much more logical name. This is some stupid decision by a marketing department.
What a weird take. Windows in GUIs were a thing years before Microsoft made theirs. It followed white logically from Microsoft DOS. There were several other operating systems called something with DOS at the time, PC-DOS, Novell DOS, and others.
While not a very creative name, it was pretty self explanatory as to its major feature.
Talk about bad names for an operating system, IBM‘s OS/2 is far worse.
That is nonsense, I did look it up and it was a last minute marketing decision. Found the guy that likes Winblows!
These are xwindows, so I’m good.
Me seeing this post for the 4,000th time.
