    Bad meme. It’s fine to poke fun at linux but this whole “basic shit won’t work and you’ll need to use terminal commands” is propaganda at this point.

    Not sure if funny because making fun of Linux usability or because using terminal commands is actually a feature and not a bug :p

      Yeah, but for newcomers, I think this is a bit frustrating. Imagine moving from windows and then don’t know how to do basic things in Linux the way you usually do. But thanks to the community, it’s not that big a deal anymore.

    Welcome to the future time traveller. Jour meme is obsolete for quite some time already.

      Obviously Starwars. No idea which movie, but one of the newer ones.

        I would assume one of the prequels. Probably the second one, I saw the 3. not too long ago that didn’t have this, and in the first Anakin was a child.

        It looks like some random B movie, set in the middle ages, so I don’t know how this is obviously Star Wars…

          These two actors together and the typical Princess Leyla hairstyle of Starwars are a pretty clear give away though ;)

    Just use Linux Mint or Ubuntu, i dual-boot with windows for gaming, it’s soo good becuase i rarely have to look up a termanal command to do the most basic shit, it’s soo good i’m gonna stay with Mint forever.

    i have to use yacy to feel secure about typing into the void.
    searx is good metaseach engine if you trust the person whos running it on their own hardware. it’s not that much private but it deserves some credit.
    there’s also tldr and zeal.
    manpages don’t really teach you how to do things. it just tells you what different switches do. although sometimes that’s a significant part. it feels like i’m reading the source code or something.
