    This is why the Linux community has a bad rep, you know. Mock the OS, not the users.

        # sudo pacman -Rs cancer
        :: removing cancer breaks dependency 'cancer' required by linux
        

        Unfortunately it has metastasized to the kernel image. It’s terminal.

      You’re right. It’s not Linux users who are idiots - after all they make their best of a bad world - it’s Linux itself. Or, more broadly, GNU+Linux. I mean, what unholy hybrid of an ungulate with an aquatic bird did anyone think was going to help anyone?! I just don’t understand how it succeeded like it has. Must be marketing. That Ian guy, and - whatshername - they’re probably to blame.

        There’s an X in “Linux”, and everyone’s telling me that X is the coolest thing. Do you see anything like that in Windows?

          There’s a + in my windows, and that means more!

          Also I heard Linux is bored of x and they’re going to rename it to Linuwayland, which sounds like Linoleum so it should be simple but easy to clean.

            Bah, what is a + but an X with a stick up its arse!

            Linuwayland is all about removing unnecessary bloat like window icons, absolute positioning, global hotkeys, a unified randr solution, color profiles, and nvidia support altogether – the average PC user shouldn’t see a difference.

              I’m pretty sure if you remove the window icons the pope gets mad at you. Eastern Orthodox users might also have a problem, I’m not sure.
