Biology? Idk some of the memes posted here are a bit of a stretch to fit the theme.
Marine biology.
Nothing wrong with Ubuntu if you just wanna get stuff done and don't have a genuine interest in (or time to spend on) tweaking your OS.
I use Ubuntu btw.
There is lots wrong with Canonical imho, but this isn't the place for it.
Debian here. IMO "btw" is reserved for a particular distribution and you know which one it is.
When I have even the smallest bit of time and headspace to dedicate to it, I will switch back to Debian as it was always my favourite but really can't deal with it at the moment.
I like Debian, it is boring in the best way.
I really did not like the process of upgrading from one stable version of Debian to the next. It went OK, but i remember being anxious the whole time, compared to Ubuntu's gui workflow, and failing that, the one-command cli version that i always have to look up
I love a boring OS that just works for 90% of things and you just live with whatever the other 10% is - usually some driver quirks or peripheral funk.
I've never used the gui for upgrade but I also have a hard time remembering do-make-release.
Linux Mint Debian Edition is just great for that case. If I were not so much into fedora's rpm-ostree I would be using that, or MX Linux.

I hope this is close enough.
You’re so cooked now that I got your IP
oh shit, don't hack me bro!
Too late, I already know your username is kieron
Well I just changed my IP to 10.0.2.59 so GOOD LUCK!
No, that is mine!
It looks like you are running this to the AVR, wired or through wifi/BT?
So I have this old sony bravia that technically supports 120hz but only with a custom EDID, and somewhere along the line of making the EDID I screwed up the display name. But I have one HDMI going to the TV and one HDMI going to the AVR for audio (to minimize input latency). It looks even more absurd in display properties lol.

Same, one LTS to the next, and all online tutorials assume you're on it. My years of messing with fstab, alsamixer and such are long behind me.
(Started on mandrake in about 2001 btw)
I use Ubuntu at work. I don't even care, it's legit 500% faster than my work Windows laptop, despite being objectively lower-speccd.
I use nobara at home. Windows free in my personal life for like a decade at least now. I wanted something solid out of the box, not atomic (I like the idea I just think it's overkill for a home workstation. The sheepdog is a pet, not part of flock), fedora based with good brtfs support.
But Ubuntu is good enough. Not as if "better than windows" is a particularly high bar, though.
I agree
I use Arch btw

I got to feed endangered African penguins once at an aviary! They just swallow whole fish (whether in the water or tossed to them though the air), no need for prep or plating.
Fun fact, they secrete all that fish oil right onto their feathers (it helps them glide though the water), but that makes them little stink monsters! Seriously, penguins smell rather terrible haha.
Added fun facts: they have teeth in their throats to haul the fish down, and the fish oil secretions are stored in a gland near their tails!

Weird that they keep flightless birds in aviary, but penguins are my spirit animal so I'm jealous.
Wow, that's... kind of disgustingly intriguing of evolution...
That must have been really fun! The Toronto zoo has an awards plaque for “Nice Penguin of the Month” and “Naughty Penguin of the Month” which leads me to believe that they must be characters

He must have given her the shiniest pebble on the planet because that looks fucking delicious ngl
And as a fellow seafood lover, I want some of what you're smoking.
I mean what the hell is going on in the top and bottom right quadrants? What's with that bright orange, Kraft-colored noodle slop? And I can't even begin to describe what the other thing is supposed to be. Also, no cocktail sauce for the shrimp? No butter for the surimi? The shrimp doesn't even appear to be deveined! IDK about you, but I don't want to eat a bottom feeder's digestive tract along with all the nasties inside of it!
Bottom right Mushroom wild rice, top right is wasbi mayo. I think the fish are smelts. The imitation crab and shrimp im not sure about.But the rest of the plate I can say is indigenous cuisine and native to my area. Very delicious for the most part epsiecally the wild rice.
I'd go right to my happy place with the mushroom wild rice alone.

Yo, can I be a zoo penguin, please?
At least I’ll die happy
"I wanna be someone's penguin" sounds kinky, not gonna lie
What is the orange stuff at the top middle and what's the chopped stuff on the bottom right?
Spicy mayo as a condiment, and looks like clams without the shells
That's so much mayo lol
I didn't think penguins could have mayo
it's OK it's gonna be put down

Gross..........Ubuntu
Is this secretly some sorta recipe for making his dong go/stay up?
as opposed to a wild penguin.
The Zoo is animal prison. You don't get a death row meal in the wild.
Yes, Kyle, those grapes are probably very sour
I can confirm. You can do a good 20 of them with the same patter.
