@mcc @leo this reminds me of the Dutch government sending that one person a tshirt that said “I hacked the Dutch government and all I got was this tshirt”

@mcc @solderandchaos enjoyed Tom’s exasperation in that video 😂

mikabxl,

@mcc
Euh, not sure I follow you ??? Mastodon is an OS agnostic software.
I mean sure you will have different implemetations according to the OS but you will find a client and server software for all OSes (hem server for MacOS ?? not sure)

cultdev,

@mcc mastodon has me considering it for the first time, too…but i suspect i’m like 10% not technical enough for even the newbie-friendliest of distros

adambyte,

@mcc Me who watched that video earlier today: wake up babe, new meme just dropped.

PiousunynHeretic,

@mcc Just attempted to install Linux Mint on my laptop and windows just makes it so damn hard. I will find some help and get it done. Not enamored with Windows 11.

ThatDimensionalFox,

@mcc i will NEVER install Linux. not because its bad (I think its great that people can completely customise experiences) but... no. idk y, but my brain CANNOT operate 3rd party stuff. Like, if the thing I'm using isn't 1st party, and is an external thing I'm installing... then I'm doing it wrong and am bad. i know its NOT wrong and bad, but my BRAIN DISAGREES!

it used to be a lot worse, where I couldn't use anything UNLESS I CREATED IT (I was gonna create my own custom OS at some point because of it) so it being better is very good, but... still can't get it and rely on the amazing community because my brain will just go "those people don't work for Linux. This isn't the intended experience. you're using your own personal computer wrong" and ill just get sick to my stomach again-

@mcc Wait, you started using Mastodon before Linux?

germanatlas,

@mcc alles klar, keine emails mehr von mir

reclus,

@mcc
Which video is this from? What’s the original context?

mcc,
@mcc@mastodon.social avatar

@reclus YouTuber Tom Scott often makes videos about unusual elevators. Apparently for many years whenever he makes an elevator video Germans tell him he should make a video about an unusual elevator at the Hanover city hall, so he finally did. It's his newest video, although I think his "world's cleanest railway" video is the more interesting elevator video.

000panther,

@mcc i do not get the image but like the notion of installing linux!

@mcc How to dual boot and ?

Techwizz,

@yuliyan @mcc You first have to compile MUSL then GLIBC, and then run rm -rf /

mcc,
@mcc@mastodon.social avatar

@Techwizz @yuliyan Oh! I did that once.

joel,
@joel@fosstodon.org avatar

@yuliyan @mcc impossible

Alexa82,

@mcc For me it was the other way around, I first installed Linux and then went to Mastodon

@mcc germany wouldn't mail you, we would send a fax

beforewisdom,

Nehalenia,

@mcc Great use of new meme!

@robotdeathsquad@mastodon.social avatar

@mcc This place kinda reminds me of a sideways elevator too.

froztbyte,

@mcc hahaha

jakobhaerter,

@mcc Memeworthy

MikeOplinger,

@mcc No no, now you get to hear about how you didn't install the right distro!

That's the best part of the Linux community, the fun never ends! LOL

I always just say "cool I'm currently running Mint but I'll try out a live version of yours" and then never actually try it.

@proedie @jraedisch @mcc oof, the Arch users aren't going to like that

rewarp,

@rotopenguin @proedie @jraedisch @mcc
