"You are inside 2 wolves"
Throw the Linux guy to the wolves, enjoy an empty row just for yourself
You still have the goat and the cabbage...
You can punch the guy, I would help too
Im the person that likes to talk about linuxππ€
Arch?
I would never....
~~i use arch btw.~~
yay
I guess I'm not that guy. I use arch Linux (had to say it for the memes)but I like coding, drawing, learning new languages, photography, and I'm thinking about picking up calligraphy someday.
Only masochists run Arch.
I run Gentoo BTW.
Your among friends here. I just didn't have time for Gentoo 
I had never installed Linux before. Back in 2006 my old college roommate told me that he was reading about it. I used Solaris Spark workstations back in college, but never ran Linux before. My other roommate ran Slackware which looked cool but I never looked into it. Anyway I had recently built a custom PC and I was trying to avoid paying the windows tax, and was growing tired of having to reinstall the cracked version I was using of "corporate windows xp" so I pulled up the installation guide, printed it out, and proceeded to install the stage 1 tarball.
It definitely was a trial by fire. I learned a tremendous amount, and I don't regret any of it.
I even was playing WoW under Cedega.
I did eventually pick up a copy of Windows XP to run in parallels for Linux, and unfortunately, had to give it up for Windows XP as the main os due to Blizzard banning people who were playing Linux at the time.
I miss it sometimes, but I don't have the free time to properly maintain an install of Gentoo.
I usually run Linux Mint on my VMs and test bench hardware however because it just works.
I ran Arch briefly but my conclusion was that if I wanted Ck and bl torture, I would just main Gentoo again.

Well, as long as it's just a hungry pack of wolves and not a pack of hungry wolves.
It'll be an Arch user so all I have to do is mention that I use Mint. That'll just make him glare at me angrily for the rest of the flight.
