"Joke's on you Satan, I've decided to pivot to immutable OS evangelism."

"Satan, you should check out Bazzite! It is atomic, based on Fedora, and focused on gaming!"

I thought we were doing NixOS this year ._.

I bow to you, O bearded one!

It's "psych" as in "He psyched us out" which comes from "using psychology on them"

So many people spell it incorrectly that I'm starting to worry that "sike" will become the official spelling. Language evolves, but I don't want it to.

Or "would of", "could of", "should of". Enunciate your words. "have" and "of" sound different.

[–] Molten_Moron@lemmings.world 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Excellent point, but "would've", "could've", and "should've" sound like "would of", "could of", and "should of".

So the problem doesn't lie solely in enounciation.

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

If you think "of" and "have" (or it's contraction) sound alike, you're part of the problem. "Of" has a softer finish more like "ovf" than "ov". The transition from 'o' to 'f' starts hard with a 'v' but finishes with a soft 'f'.

I never knew it hat a source,.. I thought it was a word like "ouch" or "oops"

Edit: English != mother tongue

[–] Subverb@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

I commend you, but it's a losing battle.

Oh fork! This was the Bad Place all along!

This comment is so under appreciated.

I wonder if this is heaven or hell 😅

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

There is a twilight zone episode where a thief gets shot and goes to what he thinks is heaven but is actually hell. It starts off with him getting everything he wants in a very nice casino and then at the end it is revealed that that is a form of punishment. He will be tormented for eternity as he has everything he ever wanted so he no longer has a purpose

I'm conversing with this coke dealer online... I don't do coke, but we kinda developed this bond over time... it's weird, I know... don't even get me started on how we ever started conversing, had nothing to do with drugs, lol 😂.

Anyway, he started talking the other day, he bought a new bike (bicycle, he's into cycling, healthy lifestyle, doesn't do drugs, etc.), a really nice one, like 1K euros plus. So, he rode it the whole day and he got a flat at the end of the day. So, he started pushing it down the road, right next to a river, and out of nowhere, he just decided to throw it in the river... and he did. I asked him why, he said he could buy a new one tomorrow, doesn't even matter.

I think I'll narrate him this episode of the twilight zone... maybe it'll ring a bell.

1K is below entry level for a decent adult bicycle nowadays.

Well, it isn't where I live 🤷.

It really grates on me when I read "sike".

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

I think that's half the appeal.

Some kids can only write on the walls.

if you (by which i mean you the reader, not OP) use linux for no other reason than to be able to tell people you use linux, kindly get the fuck out of my community

[–] Moshpirit@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

I use Hannah Montana Linux BTW.

What is so wrong with bsd?

[–] Johnmannesca@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

It's Daemonic

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 days ago

It doesn't work with any new hardware. 10+ years, yeah, sure.

[–] onlinepersona@programming.dev 6 points 4 days ago

If an Arch linux user hasn't told anybody they use it, are they really using it?
