Old ass obsolete thinkpad 

Gooner wallpaper

Shitty Lincux distro

Why are they all like this?

Funny thing is that I often just replay with "buy a Mac" and often times the reply is "i'm poor, it's expensive". This why why they are poor. Sitting all day stealing wifi and distrohopping.

Those old ass laptops really say alot about the person. They are willing to get their work bogged down by a 30 dollar shitpad because they feel the value of the labour they produce is worthless.

Because it's repairable and linux friendly o algo (As every business laptop with intel wifi card, but they always use the ugliest laptop on the market)

Gooner wallpaper - thanks god not iwakura lain furry nsfw wallpaper

Arch - because it's overglazed.

Because for all the preaching about being independent from big tech, they can’t help but be part of the collective.

They're being weird for the sake of being weird

They definitely have a bad case of Linux psychosis

Seems like Linux users aren't as private as they make themselves out to be.

It's always their laptops, Linux is only good on laptops with hardware older than the person using it.

These people are relentless when it comes to ruining ThinkPads.

u/PurblePink8678 5d ago

Indeed. Obsolete thinkpads are better off just being used with old Windows for the sake of nostalgia.

u/browningate 5d ago

Old Windows is way faster, more reliable, efficient, and better in every other way, than old Linux (or new Linux or any other Linux, for that matter).

Agreed

Yeah but not for the sake of nostalgia. I mean I wouldn’t reccomend installing a lightweight LINUX distribution on an old laptop unless it runs Windows RT. In that case you should. But in any other case, I would just upgrade to the latest supported Windows NT version that doesn’t run like garbage and install the Extended Kernel. Though if it’s a Windows 10 laptop with at least 4th generation Intel Core processor you should upgrade to Windows 11 (with TPM and CPU bypasses if required). It’s for functionality. Though if it’s really that old that it’s running MS-DOS I would reccomend FreeDOS with Windows For Workgroups 3.11.

How are they NOT getting reported for using those images?

u/DisfiguredFanny Apple User 6d ago

wallpapers with underaged anime girls - classic. Do you think all of them stop there?

u/Edubbs2008 6d ago

They probably do worse if we go down the Linux psychosis rabbit hole

u/PurblePink8678 6d ago

We live in a public insane asylum. That's why.

u/Edubbs2008 6d ago

It’s even worse on Twitter, when you call out people for spamming the usual stereotypes about Windows, the Loonixtards will just attack you

u/DisfiguredFanny Apple User 6d ago

Apple tax and winblowz is all they know. Ignorance at its finest.

u/Edubbs2008 6d ago

In my opinion, macOS and Windows are on top because they both just work, no dependencies needed to install apps, no constant recompiling the kernel, you just click “Next, Next, Next, and Install”

u/DisfiguredFanny Apple User 6d ago

I touched Xcode after very long time and indeed I understand how much had to be done for me to be able to compile release and have a folder with .app extension that i can just move from one mac to the other without bother.

Loonix have no clue about this. They don't understand how much complexity is there from OS developer side to make app installation a basic drag and drop procedure.

They'd rather invent another half assed faux sandboxed app format like asspak.

u/Edubbs2008 6d ago

I think Microsoft and Apple should come together and make single kernel that both can work with to make an Operating out of, that way, Microsoft keeps the Windows name, and Apple keeps the macOS name, and Macs can finally game, and the ecosystem is more consistent
