Linux dweeb commenters waste their valueless energy arguing over whether allowing text cursors to blink on screen is a waste of valuable energy

Hello.

You are receiving this message because you posted in defense of Donald Trump. I no longer provide individual responses on this matter. It has been my experience that Trump supporters are universally incapable of accepting verifiable truths about him and, by extension, themselves, thus rendering discussion pointless and, therefore, a waste of time.

I wish you all the best in your ongoing battle with reality.

Yours respectfully, a logical person.

Abolish blinking cursors to prevent climate change!!!

I just made my cursor blink so fast it appears to always be on.

ROLL COAL BABY

Reminder that Linuxcels are permavirgins ๐Ÿง๐Ÿค“๐Ÿค“

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little proprietry bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the FSF, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Apple patents, and I have over 300 confirmed bug fixes. I am trained in Free Software Evangelizing and I'm the top code contributer for the entire GNU HURD. You are nothing to me but just another compile time error. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am building a GUI using GTK+ and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can decompile you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my Model M. Not only am I extensively trained in EMACS, but I have access to the entire arsenal of LISP functions and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit Freedom all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking debugged, kiddo.

Ok RMS

vi > emacs

It's the other way around if you actually want to trigger nerds, now it's just stating facts.

nano > emacs > vi

Am I doing this right?

vs code > nano > emacs > vim

Call it vim for extra salt

This but unironically

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Fedoracels need to be culled tbh

This but unironically.

I use Arch btw.

UwU

systemdโ„ข - for when you want to feel superior to people who use closed-down bullshit restrictware for operating systems but you're too lazy to know how to discern real software from closed-down bullshit restrictware anyway

Systemd argument

๐Ÿ˜ด๐Ÿ˜ด๐Ÿ˜ด

Imagine hearing something hundreds of times but still not understanding it lmao

I bet you don't understand the chicken crossing the road joke either

๐Ÿ˜ด๐Ÿ˜ด๐Ÿ˜ด Was that all you could muster for an insult?

yeah, I don't put much effort into hurting people who are already suffering with systemd

Idk man. Nothing could be worse than being Holborn Stark.

Compiling Gentoo without any systemd is like achieving one of the highest ranks of enlightenment in a Nepali temple or brothel. While you cannot imagine my suffering, you also cannot imagine the pleasures I've known. Such is the nature of a hero's passion.

You sound like you're jerking off to software.

While it's weird, I fully support you doing this, because it means you won't be jerking it to kids instead.

You have not experienced a truer cycle than your cyclic history which we will break for all eternity and create the dream. The cycle of true depravity, true pleasure, I have tasted more cum than you, swam in more cum than you have ever imagined. I have licked stranger things than you have, penetrated warmer and moister crevices than you have, let me sing an elegy, an elegy to your dryness and your despair. I have grown astral penises beyond you, that the Hyperboreans and the damn ascetics will never let you glance at so much as grow one. One such cock was 2 meters in length and full of volume.

๐Ÿคค

Thanks, friend!

๐Ÿคฎ use windows like a normal person you gigantic faggot, u think ur shell or whatever is going to impress anyone? Itโ€™s Get-ChildItem not ยซlsยป or whatever lmao

Get-ChildItem

your IP addres is being traced now

Whoop. Another forced update. So sad to see you go for the third time today ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Watch your mouth knave! Lest i write a scornful reply ๐Ÿ˜ก

I use Arch btw.

Then you're clearly the Arch-enemy of fedoracels.

And just like that the dweeb bait was laid

Not only Fedoracels but also all GNOMEcels

Xfce Is the only moral choice

๐Ÿ˜˜K ๐Ÿ˜˜ D ๐Ÿ˜ E

This is why open-source shit still kinda bothers me. It might work well but it is so autistic that Iโ€™d much rather have a shiny well-presented Microsoft or Apple product.

The virgin 2 watt blinking cursor vs the chad 13% cpu usage blinking cursor

Jesus christ I donno if I should be impressed or 3rd person embarrassed for you that you knew that bug existed.

Cursors are serious business ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž

how can I increase cursor cpu usage, so I can flex on 0-CPU-cursor virgings

This sub should srsly collab with pcj imo

Lol no generics

How's PCJ nowadays? Haven't been there in a long while.

DAE le Jooberscript bad? ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ‘

Dude no generics lmao.

How exciting! How exciting!

And Micro$oft is a multi-billion dollar international company and they still do shit like this holy mother of fuck

i assure you that such autism goes in the well-presented (lol windows 10 is anything but) proprietary products too.

Clippy Says: โ€œIt looks like youโ€™re writing an /r/drama post! Would you like me to tie you a noose?โ€

I'm aware. Autism can be a good thing when it comes to computery shit. I just like that in those cases it's more hidden behind the corporations' walls.

Correction: They were arguing about whether not blinking should be the default.

I would give my take & sticky it but my mod account isn't around right now.

It's over for Darqwolves.

Literally zero drama.

If you brainlets actually read the article it'd make sense to you. Imagine waking up your mom every 3 seconds to draw a line

You need to be a special kind of autist to be a Linux Kernel dev

Blink, baby, blink!

YOU ARE ALL ALREADY DEAD ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€. YOU JUST DONT KNOW ๐Ÿค” IT YET.

WE OUTNUMBER YOU. WE REMEMBER YOU. NO ๐Ÿ˜ฃ ONE 1๏ธโƒฃ HAS FORGOTTEN. NO ๐Ÿ˜ฃ ONE 1๏ธโƒฃ HAS FORGIVEN.
