I won’t stand for the vegan bashing
You don’t eat animals, btw.
You have elevated levels of stress hormone (and deserve it) if you eat animals, btw.
Then WTF did the plants do to you?
They know what they fucking did. They domesticated my species
Wait wait wait, I did not expect to see that reference here #-;#
Hmmm, Greatly lower my risk of heart disease and parasites overall? Allow me to enjoy deep-frying and carbs guiltlessly? Make me feel like I can fight god and win?
Vegans just casually setting up a class system upon which to value one life above others.
I save my bloodthirst for humans.

I’m vegan for health reasons and I have yet to meat one of the infamous vegans the stereotype portrays. I ask questions, look for recipes, etc, and everyone has been super nice. I think “those vegans” live primarily on Twitter and Reddit.
PS: I’ve had a working Linux system in daily use since I started back with Red Hat Halloween and I prefer Debían based installs like Pop!_OS and Mint D. Nothing against Arch but I ain’t got time to fight the OS as well as my work.
EDIT: The typo stays.
I’ve met one or two. It’s like fine, it’s a major lifestyle change often associated with ethics that sets you aside from most of society. Many folks have a period of a few months to a year or two of being really annoying about shit like that. It happens with all sorts of folks: linux and arch users, freshly out queer people, people getting into polyamory, new converts to religions… frankly atheists and people who just converted to Christianity are the worst about it in my experience. And yeah these people are annoying. You’ve been annoying too I’m sure, we all have, it’s part of being a person and the people being annoying about these things are typically doing so at an age where some variant of that is a common experience
I’ve been annoying? I’VE BEEN ANNOYING?!? I take offense of your liberal use of the past tense, Captain.
I hear ya though. I guess I’ve been lucky in my interactions, but the memes make it seem like it’s constant and ever present with vegans, and that doesn’t match with my experience outside of the Internet.
Surprisingly sane take, I forget sometimes that not everything on the internet is straight cynicism. Ty.
They’re also on Lemmy. I haven’t been here long, but I’ve already seen 2.
One is right here in another comment chain, lol
This is very likely my very environmentally influenced view, but I think there was a period of time where being vegan was a trend among the health hipsters, who weren’t vegan due to ethics, but because either everyone else was doing it or because they claim it has massive health benefits like they did for paleo, keto or other diets. Those I think could indeed fit that stereotype. Or maybe I’m living in a fairy tale.
Part of being vegan is understanding you’ll be mocked and criticized for completely unrelated things. Like Bubly sparkling water or blue denim, for example.
Do you do CrossFit™?
Yeah, that’s too much.
I eat chicken, btw.
I know what you mean, I always sit down first.
Of course not. With the lack of iron and protein you need to complain while sitting.
-a vegetarian
This dead horse is pulp by now
If we keep beating it for long enough, thermodynamics says it might spontaneously turn back into a horse.
And that horse will be using arch btw.
So, like… glue?
Needs a Steam Deck owner in the corner playing games, wearing headphones, and ignoring all questions.
I might have created this long before Steam Deck was a thing and just reposted it for fake internet points.
I feel called out
No way the Fedora user figured out how to configure partitions in the installer without having to google it at least five times! I’ve installed Fedora a few times over the years, and that UI still makes no sense to me!
Lol I end up just opening gparted, do my stuff, then go and set the partitions in the installer
Lol. I tried to google it too and i still am unable to define a custom home partition for my most recent Nobara install. Gave up and just let it automatically create what it needs.
Sounds like a you-problem.
Wtf?! No reason to get insulting.
I just let it do partitioning automatically, or do it manually with GNOME Disks.
I switched a friend from Ubuntu to Fedora specifically because the partition setup during Fedora install is so good. (It was during a new build)
Yeah for some reason whenever i try and install Ubuntu, the installer only sees the primary NVME drive if one is installed. Haven’t had that issue with any other distro
Huh. I had the complete opposite experience. I found fedora’s manual partitioner to be the worst of any distro I’ve ever used (I had trouble understanding it and it always ended up giving me some weird error when trying to finalize the partitioning step). I think I just ended up ditching fedora’s default manual partition manager.
I use Arch, BTW.
I feed on your hatred.
I can feel your anger. It makes you stronger, gives you focus.
I actually encoutered this the other day.
Me: “Yeah I need reliability for work and sometimes I just don’t have time to repair stuff. Last time I was on rolling release some update fucked my system right before an important deadline”
Other person: “It wOn’T bReAk If YoU UndErStANd iT”
._.
Anyway stable is awesome
Gentoo is still compiling
… still compiling …
Debian guy could have just downloaded the nonfree installer that includes some common wifi and other hardware firmwares. There are some pragmatists at Debian.
Also… It’s included in all versions starting with Bookworm.
Well… Say that to my live USB I tried booting off of a machine with a very modern nVidia card. I had to create a new boot entry to disable nouveau and install nVidia proprietary graphics into a persistent partition.
I understand nVidia is shit, and doesn’t play nice with others. But my point is - it’s not always that easy. (I thought it would be! I lost many hours, and pulled out lots of hair!)
Not in the good old days. Back in 2000something I built a custom installer image with a backported kernel from testing and some firmware to get debian installed on a new laptop.
You can also install Arch with like 5 keyboard presses too but its a comic not a walkthrough.
before debian 12 though, it was kinda hard to find the nonfree netinstaller on their site
When did all the 13 year old Redditors invade Lemmy?
I would be so proud of my 13 year old cousin knew this much about Linux.
🎶 wake me up, when September ends…
Ikr? Low-hanging fruit at best.
they took over the rest of the internet, now they’re coming for you.
seriously, where are their parents?
One month ago?
If that’s a first install, then sure. Otherwise… There was a speedrun installing arch under 2 min…
Might just be an old comic. The above was true a few years ago, but not so much anymore.
Yeah now its like archinstall, check some boxes, maybe google some packages to install at setup and you’re done.
oof i wish it was that easy. that’s the simple version of what i spent the last 2 weeks doing. On Windows I’d consider myself a power user. I get a lot of work done, quickly, and besides that I would say I’m pretty tech literate over all. But arch is just ridiculously difficult to understand how to use unless you’re already very familiar with linux. I feel like any wrong move i make is gonna break my setup. i got my comptia A+ , which while very basic, definitely goes to show I’m not some random luddite
What is ridiculously difficult to understand?
I installed Linux mint on a trusty old thinkpad. Used it probably 5 times over the course of a year. Then installed arch on a newer T480s I received from work. I am a complete novice. It is literally that easy. You download the arch installer, follow the wiki on the 2 or 3 commands needed for internet, then type archinstall. Thats it. You literally dont even have to install anything else, especially if you choose desktop instead of minimal like I did. I have no idea what anyone is talking about it being difficult. Its easy.
i installed endeavouros really quickly
The fact that speedruns for installing Arch even exist kind of proves the point.
How does that work? Do they count user interaction time only by pausing the timer during package downloads?
Or do you need fast internet to play?

But it installs so much bloat;!!!
I’ll have you know that I eat a vegetarian not vegan diet and I really don’t have a man bun (got no hair for that) … The stickers on the laptop however really felt like you took a photo of my machine.
Also if it wasn’t obvious I run arch
The man bun is more of a mental thing. And, hey, I’m a vegetarian too according to the saying “you are what you eat”.
You eat vegetarians?
I prefer my meat grass-fed
Love how this has almost 80 dislikes (as of writing this), as if they actually took it personally 😂
as if they actually took it personally
For me it is, in so far as I’d see it as a personal failure if my contributions here failed to create at least some controversy and ruffled some feathers :P
You see, it’s fun to poke things. Poking a pumpkin is funny for about 10 seconds. Poking a beehive on the other hand … that has a certain thrill to it. Sure, one might get stung, but it keeps on giving for a long time.
I just don’t like the unnecessary stab at vegans. Adds nothing to the joke except rehash 10 year old stereotypes.
That stab was necessitated by this existing: https://www.redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/I-use-Vegan-btw-by-Trollwut/42586279.NL9AC
Yeah but how many knew that? Context helps, I initially thought you were commenting on “if you tell everyone you’re vegan, you’re probably also the type to talk up arch”.
Is this comic a useful contribution? It seems more divisive, made by someone who really concerns themselves with being part of an ingroup, vs anything meaningful.
Dunno man, it’s a little… Mean spirited.
Yeah but how many knew that?
I did.
Context helps,
Context is for simple minded people.
I initially thought you were commenting on “if you tell everyone you’re vegan, you’re probably also the type to talk up arch”.
Yes.
Is this comic a useful contribution?
It entertained a lot of people.
It seems more divisive,
Welcome to the linux community: united, yet splintered.
made by someone who really concerns themselves with being part of an ingroup, vs anything meaningful.
Meh. As a fedora user I’m on the right side.
Dunno man, it’s a little… Mean spirited.
That’s an interesting way to express your tears of anger.
I’m a debian/Ubuntu/freebsd guy. So… Better luck next time with your guesses 🤭
Yeah man, if this is the general quality of humor, I’m unsubscribing from our friendship hahaha.
Better luck next time with your guesses 🤭
What guesses?
Yeah man, if this is the general quality of humor, I’m unsubscribing from our friendship hahaha.
What friendship?
Go play with your snaps.
Any place of discourse that incorporates the term ‘master race’ in its name is a place I give a wide berth.
Thanks! I thought I’m the only one. People don’t realize what this term is and what it has brought upon us.
Cringe “gamers” outing themselves even more easily?
You mean the “real gamers” with their “battlestations”? 😅
man I knew this was going to be rough when I saw him wearing a vegan shirt but god DAMN
“All Arch users are stupid vegan crossfitters who never shut up and contribute nothing to society and the only thing they ever care about is making their desktop look l33t and Arch is a horrible distro and did I mention all Arch users are stupid?”
Oh. My. Sides.
I switched from Ubuntu to Arch because I was sick of packages not compiling due to a complete lack of dependency management. I use stock KDE with zero frills and I spend most of my time hacking on open source projects. I never tell anyone what OS I use (unless they ask for recommendations for their new machine, and I’m prepared to also tell them why I personally prefer it) because they don’t care. I’m a normal guy who keeps myself to myself and hates the people who think a pretty desktop is more important than a usable system just as much as everyone else.
However, I use Arch, and Arch bad, which means I must be the most annoying person on the planet.
“All Arch users are stupid vegan crossfitters who never shut up and contribute nothing to society and the only thing they ever care about is making their desktop look l33t and Arch is a horrible distro and did I mention all Arch users are stupid?”
Spot on! You could have left out all the text after that.
You use Linux. All Linux users are elitist evangelical douchebags who make every conversation about Linux and how great it is even though it’s worse than Windows. Also you’re probably a criminal, since most Linux users are hackers, and I don’t associate with criminals.
Stereotypes are great, aren’t they?
Cute, a butthurt Arch user
Does that mean in your analogy that all linux users are femboys 👉👈
if they use gentoo…
I mean…
Oh Muh god its the same guy. He won’t stop talking end me please he won’t stop he won’t stfu
