you can watch anime

>pretending that you're a programmer
Actually write programs.

>pretending that you're a programmer
I actually am a programmer.
Also, I've written a bunch of bash scripts that automate a bunch of shit, like sorting and fetching anime from my home server.
That would not be viable on the winmeme.

Why you don't have a job then? You've been here 24/7 for the past 5 years

Why don't YOU have a job then? You have been watching him shitpost 24/7 for the past 5 years

At what point did I say that I don't? Check mate retard

then how do you know he shitposts 24/7 and has been doing so for 5 years now?
Check mate idiot

There's a thing called rebeccablacktech retard. Check mate don't reply

Porn surfing

I don't think people go to rebeccablachtech unless he knows what he's looking for, mouthbreather. Checkmate you are welcome to try harder

The fuck are you even talking about right now you mongol? Are you having a stroke?

>Can't argue back


>"w-what are you talking about"

I can hack the mainframe using my custom made Kali Linux with Metasploit framework.

I do have Gentoo on another partition tho.

Write config files until I start to hallucinate

>mfw I write Qt5 shit with my comfy KDE install
Linux is maximum comfy for developers.

All I do these days is browse internet, watch shows and read papers. Easily done on Linux

* Pretend that the difficulty of use and the incomprehensibility of commands inherent in GNU/Linux is actually a badge of honor.
* Look at ugly, distorted fonts in your browser and on any other application you might want to run
* Reformat and install another distribution. (People have been known to do this continuously for weeks. Hint: they all suck. Stop wasting your time.)
* Watch a console display error messages.
* Convince yourself that LibreOffice is "just as good" as Microsoft Office.
* Read countless manuals to do the simplest of tasks... and still fail.
* Say you use Linux (which will get your ass kicked, even by other GNU/Linux users.)
* Think of ways at work to bring up the subject of how you use GNU/Linux, because the penguin thing didn't work.
* Fail to realize that, penguin or not, noone gives a fuck about what operating system you use.
* Eat KFC chicken around the clock.
* Manually edit config files.
* Run a virtual instance of Windows so you can play games, while at the same time saying how much you hate Microsoft.
* Argue that KDE is better than GNOME.
* Argue that GNOME is better than KDE.
* Argue that both GNOME and KDE are inferior to your chosen environment.
* Develop carpal tunnel from keyboard usage between bouts of excessive self-pleasure borne out of social-retardation.
* Depend on easy to use programs like vi.
* Try to learn how to do simple tasks in vim/emacs, eventually using gedit to complete the same task.
* Keep your virginity.
* Be a badass non-conformist.
* Never get viruses, ever, like how a virgin never gets STDs.
* Graphically chart the shrinkage of your penis over time with bundled, GPL'd software such as GNUPlot. This is a highly requested feature among GNU/Linux users.
* Discussing the awesome non-ntfs filesystems you can use with GNU/Linux, for example one written by a convicted murderer.
* Spend hours of your life compiling bits of code, just to find out it was EPIC FAIL!

Nice pasta there, fag.

Thanks, just doing my bait to help.

I am a data science professional who uses Mint. Making 80k eur a year writing software and doing analytics.

Most of our servers also run the linux kernel.

>I am a data science professional who uses Mint
Post your desktop right now.

With package list showing.

>Why you don't have a job then?
I am a paid researcher, user. Currently working on my master's degree, and planning on moving on to a PhD.

I won't indulge in your childish games, faggot. Got work to do, enough shitposting for the day.

I can make this folder

in other words: no job you looser.

You are pathetic, OP

>That would not be viable on the winmeme.
powershell

That's pretty cool, well done. What are you studying? CS?

If I am paid, and I am doing work, in what way is it not a job?

Yep!

Being a mythomaniac isn't a paid job

>t. home schooled burger flipper

>white-knighting for a tripfag on a chinese cartoon internet forum
Can you possibly sink any lower?

Well I've been playing around with the Gtk python bindings and it's really awesome how fast you can make UIs with them. Desktop applications are the most interesting aspect of programming to me so, yeah. I run Windows on anything with a real GPU in it, but one day I'll switch to passthrough.
im just gonna stop this is in no way a serious thread.

What can you even do on Windows aside from play videogames and using photoshop?

Program, shitpost, game, consume media. Not very different from any other OS.

>pajeets will defend this

The only true point is that LibreOffice just isn't as good as MS Office.

>Cockona

Literally everything else that you can do on windows.

change the terminal color

Linux is only useful for serving up web pages on the cheap, or selling web hosting on the cheap.

Shit, even filesharing uses the gimped out SAMBA which is inferior to plain old windows server with active directory.

What would you expect from a 40 year old design where the only innovation is copying other systems. (cups+samba, samba, open directory, kerberos, etc).

Linux isn't even useful as a platform for business communications--there is nothing on it like outlook server--and this is a dead basic requirement for the enterprise.

There is no unified authentication for remote users either. You're stuck with a mishmash or kerberos, opendirectory, or maybe even radius thrown in the mix. Totally unacceptable.

Most UNIX innovation was done on Solaris, and their best tools aren't even available on Linux--and now that Linux has eaten solaris' lunch, expect no future unix innovation.

Every other use case is better served by a desktop OS.

You linux ppl are fucking delusional.

Might as well have asked "what can you do on a computer"

>Can't you do most or all of these on other operating systems?
Yes.
>Are these things better done on Linux than other operating systems
Subjective. I think so, others would disagree.

What can you even do on Windows aside from ricing your desktop and pretendin that you're a pro gamer?

You can do everything Windows does, poorly.

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.

Here's yours (you)

>caring about flop floppers

Become an actual programmer

Install an os that uses the linux kernel and find out, not my job to spoonfeed mongoloid retards such as yourself.
