it sounds so loving dumb every time she says "guh-nome"

is that the way people pronounce it? also, who the hell decided "gnu" was a good idea for a name for anything

i'm the public domain nu-jazz playing in the background

it'll never not be funny that the main gnome library is called "glib"

unity is good when you auto hide the dock thingy. i like hitting the meta (?) key and just typing what i'm looking for like a poor mans spotlight

today i found out that qemu can't output 1366x768 through any of its vga drivers 'cause 1366 isn't divisible by 8. good poo poo.

when the linux kernel becomes compilable with clang and most distros have ripped out the last bits of gnu userland do you think rms will finally off himself?

I think it might be time for my bi-annual Linux installation (got tired of win10 preview), which flavor should I try? I used arch last time at the behest of c&p but I think I might like to try something different this time

how's ubuntu doing? fedora? I've been using debian and centos for work VMs but they're really not representative of a good desktop distro

mint?

if you auto hide the launcher thingy, ubuntu is ok

i saw the 5 oclock shadow and assumed it was a utilikilt

i guess we could be looking at a former man transitioning to a woman

i mean they could be transitioning or genderfluid but they could also just be a thirsty attention-seeking simp. i'm not sure where i'm really going with this.
