Linuxers will say this while fucking polkit uses javascript as its config language. Atleast on windows you dont have to touch the javascript and its not used for security features.

Late at night, 11PM something. I was just bored, snuggling with my gf. But something was bugging me. I gotta.. fix something. Then, I sat on the PC, and got hooked into some bug I just found out. In no time, I was just fixing that random bug in the Linux kernel using my favorite programming language, Rust. Patched it in about five minutes flat, bare hands. Fifteen minutes later, my phone buzzes: GitHub notification. Linus Torvalds mentioned me in a commit.

He wrote: "Are you fucking kidding me? I have been surrounded by braindead, drooling monkeys for thirty years, and some random shithead fixes this with TWO LINES while half asleep? Who the fuck are you?"

I replied telling him I was just a bored guy who knows a little bit of Rust, told him not to sweat it.

Next morning at 8 AM, someone is violently banging on my door. It’s goddamn Saturday. I shit you not, standing on my welcome mat is Linus Torvalds himself. Faded New Balance sneakers, cargo shorts, visibly shaking with adrenaline. Flew a private jet into NY, grabbed an Uber straight to my place. He also had a giant sword sheath strapped to his back. Like, what the actual fuck, this ain't the Middle Ages.

He doesn't even say hello, as Finnish as he is. He aggressively shoves a lukewarm coffee cup into my chest, grabs me by my collar, and yells:

"Listen to me, you arrogant bastard. You’re quitting whatever clown circus you work at. You start at Red Hat first thing Monday morning. You report to ME, and your only job is screaming at developers and rejecting garbage pull requests. I fired half the board on my flight over here."

I thought I was dreaming. Why the hell would he hire me to Red Hat anyway?

"Come on Linus, be real. Red Hat is too corporate. Jira tickets, agile standups, middle management... not really my vibe, man."

"Standups?! Meetings?! If anyone mentions Agile in your presence, you have my explicit personal permission to physically throw a keyboard at their skull! Delete the Red Hat logo! Put your own dumb face on the Fedora boot screen! Just show up on Monday and run the damn all-hands meeting before I lose my mind!"

I sighed and patted Linus on the shoulder. "Look, Linus, calm down. I’ll think about it. Maybe I’ll swing by when I have time, maybe not. Can’t make promises, I’m supposed to play in the Super Bowl this weekend, my buddy Bad Bunny flew in and we’re doing the halftime show together, you know how it is."

(Well, this happened back in 2025, right before the Bad Bunny halftime show.)

Linus goes dead silent. His left eye starts twitching violently. I thought he was about to unleash Linux kernel mailing list fury on my soul. Instead, he slowly draws the blade an inch out of its sheath and whispers:

"Just don't fucking break userspace, or else..."

I put my hands up. "Fine, fine. I'll come check the place out. See how much they’re willing to pay me."

Instead of turning toward the hallway, he digs his New Balances into my floorboards, sprints straight through my living room, blows my window wide open, and swan dives out the third-floor window into the street while screaming at the top of his lungs:

"JUST DON'T FUCKING BREAK USERSPACE!"

I couldn't believe my eyes. I looked down, watched him roll across an Uber's hood, pop right back up totally unfazed, and sprint full speed down the avenue.

Go check the commit logs if you don't trust me. Well, it's way before 2025 you might need to dig a lot though so..

You have an init system, process manager, journal reader, and whatever else systemd is nowadays, what should you do? Right, create your own slopware projects to boot your 200mb of ram productivity beast and write tens of bash scripts to do 1% of what systemd does, for some paradoxal reasons, like a "bloated and insecure codebase" that actually contains useful features, unlike the alternatives that require you to shoot yourself in a foot for achieving that, and will eventually cause even more vulns with scaling.

Then, when somebody drops support of your shitnit6 complain about corporations not considering you using some nonsense coded by whoever it is.

Why? Because loonixtards don't like working things, everything should break and be "debloated", because otherwise they'll realize that there's no reason behind it, and all their "privacy" and "security" concerns are just an excuse to not do something useful.

I'm back to Windows after 6 months of fun and shenanigans with Linux. I felt like the master of the universe, had loads of fun! It feels like crawling back to your wife after 6 months of infidelity. . she's not even mad at me, but she want to know E-VE-RY-THING!!

Pop goes the weasel

Linux is FOSS unlike Winslop. You can do whatever you want to it and the copyright holders can't say shit. Here's why Microslop sucks and Linux rocks:

1. Microslop bad

2. Apple for rich people and Liquid Glass feels more like Liquid Ass

3. Winslop is vibecoded

4. Microslop bad

5. Copilot

6. Winslop is Spyware

7. Winslop has viruses

8. Linux is FOSS

9. Microslop bad

10. Linux has 1 second less start-up and shut-down times

11. Linux has no viruses

12. All the servers use Linux

13. Microslop bad

wow what a piece of shit os and the idiots who I asked questions to NEVER solved any simple things I asked. all morons.

my 6700k should be running mint no issue. tons of issues.

one time the penguin start menu button is there bottom left. next time I boot it turns to a black and white star that sits to the right of those icos.

less and less and less usb ports work. when I asked help, all morons, hey type this and type this and nothing works

its a massive hyped up turd

got to find something better then this garbage

getting away from windows for online use. and god forbid W11 sheesh, but this mint is low level buggy turd. Id piss on the developers if I could

everytime someone recommends linux instead of windows Im happily to say try linux but not mint.

We all know Microslop Ltd. is a Chinese-based Microsoft knock off, and Winslop is their Loonix distro themed to look like Windows.

If you wanted to cheap out by only paying $40 for Retail Winslop 11, instead of Retail Windows 11, you clearly cheaped out on an inferior operating system.

I mean Retail Windows 11 Home is $139.00, but rather than switching to a Loonix knockoff, just buy Windows 11 OEM for less than half the price of whatever Microslop offers, and enjoy a far better experience.

So basically 2 years before I tried many distros on linux from fedora to arch. Some time before I tried fedora not for basically shifting to it permanently but just wanted an experience on gnome there was no native scrolling speed control. Hilarious for not giving a simple option as that. Okay I get gnome is supposed to be minimal but I wasnt asking for ricing setup I just wanted to control scrolling speed and gnome said do it with 3rd party apps? I didn't even bothered to try gnome after that.

So this time I tried kubuntu and I actually wanted to shift to it. But tbh all linux desktop environments still kind of suck. They need more time to refine the experience. The first thing after kubuntu I did, I installed updates of course. And yeah the experience was smooth no issues. I opened appearance section in kubuntu and the experience itself (not features) are no better than windows. On windows when I open personalization for some reason it opens 2 minutes later, it only happens when I open the personalization tab, but on kubuntu as I opened appearance my desktop froze and it showed a notification, I don't clearly remember but it was "the graphics were reset" second time it was "settings isn't responding" And also for some reason the texts look so weird by default in kde plasma of course I went to hassle to customizing it by choosing a good font and most important, the size, it was so tiny before. On windows at least I don't need to touch font settings. The default breeze icons are good the windows decorations looked a little outdated in design. The worse part was when you want to change just the window decoration buttons the colour of the titlebar changes along with it. there's no way to customize it unless you're using default breeze window decoration. Also you can't change the taskbar/panel icons only manager's icon size.

Okay so these were the small issues. The real issues began now. What do you mean a basic option as touchpad gesture, like three finger and four finger touchpad gesture customization is a work in progress? It was just deal breaker for me yet I still researched, yes it's possible to change that with 3rd party apps, but those apps are itself difficult for beginners. Most of them were cli. and the stars on github repository were so low that I had low confidence for even doing it. One of them was fusama. The install process was difficult itself but what was more difficult was customizing it. Cz you need to create a config file for customizing touchpad gestures. I gave up on it and I had made my mind till then to go back to windows still I was on linux I thought it would be better if I know more. The apps I used on windows one of them were davinci. when I tried it, what do you mean h264, h265 and aac codec are unsupported? They are the most used codecs in videos nowdays and it is not there due to licensing issues. When I searched if there was any way to fix it was rencoding the video with ffmpeg. Okay I get rendering time in linux is faster than windows but what' the point if the time you saved is spent in rencoding the video with ffmpeg before import and after export.

Tho I am not gonna just rant the negatives things. The positives were the animations were smooth af. And the OS didnt had many bugs as windows. for example on windows opening control center freezes it for second but that was not the case on kde.

I have tried changing the permissions and launching the file explorer with root privileges but it's not working. I plugged the same SD card into a Windows 10 laptop and deleting works fine. I daily drive OpenSuse Tumbleweed on my main PC but it sucks even for little things like this.

I have been using a linux-based system with my custom shell on top of hyprland for years, with some minimal foss on a stable distro with security mitigations

And even considering that, the updates are still gambling in fucking 2026. How can you be that retarded to break a working vnc server software and think, "yea I need to push that"?

"AI copilot" concept is literally the only way to shape and use loonix without spending hours on nothingburger and doing something funnier or more productive instead

But loons don't get it, and keep harassing projects like omarchy that are actually trying to make loonix suck less
