    When you’re asked if you prefer x11 or Wayland, but you like titties.

        “Fine” being (arguably) marginally better than attempting to decipher a scrambled cable channel that could be either the softcore channel or a travel documentary - either way, you’re looking at something that rhymes with “complicating crank”.

    You peasants debating over compositors and window servers.

    I only interface with my computer over a headless terminal that prints the output using a matrix printer in another room. I programmed my VERY OWN hangman game, and no, you can not look at the source code to find the answers because I OBFUSCATED THINGS, you absolute lump of failed carbon.

      What a bloated workflow, just connect your oscilloscope via UART and decode via RS232.

      a matrix printer in another room

      It’s “dot matrix printer,” you phony!

        We absolutly dropped the dot from the word in informal speak. Probably 2 days after owning one… “matriseskrivar” was much easier than “punktmatriseskrivar”

      Look at this scrub, they didn’t even put the whole dictionary into their code and tell it to choose random words.

        Look, another failure. A dictionary is clearly bloated when you only want words that can be played in hangman! 3 letter words and bellow comprise way more memory overhead than required for a good challenging experience.

      For those who don’t understand: cage is a kiosk wayland window manager, which means it only runs one program in the foreground and in fullscreen.

      foot is a graphical terminal emulator.

      So the joke here is to run a terminal emulator in fullscreen and kiosk mode on a wayland wm from tty, which, at first sight, looks exactly the same as just tty. So you use wayland for a lookalike tty session, which is a nod at OP’s image which states you wouldn’t run a tty on x or wayland.

      (But cage+foot has mouse support, nice fonts, can launch graphical programs, etc., and has itself established as a kind of rescue shell for tty-less kernel distributions)

    Noob, I teared a hole in the fabric of reality and plugged it into my head. I interface with my thoughts and the results are read to me by voices in my head.

    I use wsl just to log in and run update/upgrade whenever I get the itch.

    Anyone remember the rackspace raids in mid-00s? I called and explained to them our ircd operator was in iraq and got services set back up.
