I wonder if NixOS is a vacuum coffee maker for how confusing nix looks when you see it for the first time or instant coffee for how reproducible it is...
I'm impressed!
I'm in this picture and I like it!
Gentoo gang represent!
I use Fedora and I don't understand this
I just want to pound my coffee and get to work. I finally gravitated to Fedora because it's clean and just works. Too much setup on my Arch and Gentoo installs with way too much breakage. It's fun to customize and tweak distros like those to an obsessive degree, until you actually need to get work done.
Debian user here, something wrong with getting the maximum lifespan you can out of devices and keeping them out of landfills?
Before I upgraded last year, I was still using an i7 from 2010 with 8GB RAM and a 1 TB mechanical spinning drive. I jumped to a 12 core socket AM5 Ryzen 9 with 64GB RAM and a 4TB SSD. When I upgrade, I do it all at once and make sure it can last and actually do use the machine for a decade or more. The one before the i7 was an Athlon XP from 2002. In the span of 30 years I will have owned exactly three daily driver PCs.
I am totally this meme. My vehicles seem to follow the same pattern as well. Jumping from a tape deck to a touchscreen was fun.
I thought this necromancer thing was a common linux feature... Debian rocks
What about people who prefer tea?
NodeOS
BSD?
BSTea
Hannah Montana Linux
Mint
Toaru OS
Didn't miss.
From a sample size of 1 (me) PopOS users prepare their coffee with an Aeropress.
Seconded.
I use Artix, but hate coffee altogether and would rather drink southern iced tea, what does that say?
Same here. I think we're Puppy Linux or XUbuntu maybe? I'm trying to pick a distro that's different, while also killing conversations among enthusiasts... Because all of my coffee enthusiast conversations inevitably die when I I mention tea.
Southern iced tea is Lindows. Does anyone remember Lindows? It's called Linspire now.
As a Ubuntu user, I would never touch a kureig or whatever the hell it is. Those pod things are beyond stupid and you end up needing 2 for a normal sized coffee. Font forget the absurd cost for extra garbage.
Sounds like a great metaphor for Snaps, TBH.
I have a French Press
I'd say French press ≈ Linux Mint.
Intuitive, easy to use and maintain, but despite the lack of fuss still delivers great results.
Hey y'all, this one is an Apple user!
...but that's a good thing because Apple is certified UNIX.
If this holds up, then mint users are rocking a thirty year old one cup drip machine that only has one button, and only makes one regular mug at a time.
Uncanny -- I'm still using the little free drip machine I got with my Gevalia subscription and Mint!
Jfc, that's where I got mine!
Orange Linux bad.
Orange for Linux:
Orange is a powerful platform to perform data analysis and visualization, see data flow and become more productive. It provides a clean, open-source platform. It was developed by The University of Ljubljana under the GPLv3 license.
Ljubljana is the capital and largest city of Slovenia, located along a trade route between the northern Adriatic Sea and the Danube region, north of the country's largest marsh, inhabited since prehistoric times.
What about instant coffee? Arch user btw
Error. Does not compute. Instant coffee implies Microsoft Windows user. fzzt fzzt Bang
Where does instant coffee fall in this paradigm?
Any distro on a bootable usb drive. Instant OS, no installation needed, just plug it in.
I use Ubuntu and drink instant, in both cases because I can't be bothered to expend more than minimum effort.
WSL
Containers from dockerhub
Might reevaluate the "instant" part, then.
(I've been using docker for 7 years or so, and it's always some bullshit like undocumented environment variables or bullshit password limitations or broken smtp implementations or the repo just assuming you are the actual dev and giving no fucking instructions at all or the container shitting itself for no motherfucking reason at random times and you try to fix it and it goes well and then you wake up and it's restarted several times through the night...)
(eyes bulging, hyperventilating)
Linux Mint
accurate. that's me.
Help me choose a distro!
My coffee preparation method is:
I drink this one kind of instant coffee that does not even need me to heat the water, I can just mix it in cold water and be good with it. It's still coffee and I don't have to make the slightest effort.
In this case the distro doesn't matter. Just have someone else install and maintain it for you.
That is I guess Windows:
- Installed by the manufacturer
- "Maintained" by M$
Just joking tho, I run Fedora, even lazy people have standards.
No joke, I've had two Keurig machines break on me in the past year. Those machines are trash, built to break. After the second one, I just bought a $10 coffee pot, and it's working great. It's probably going to last me ten years. There's barely any parts to break.
What about Moccha?
LOL what about regular coffee without fancy equipment? I vote alpine.
I mean...the cartoon has basically all kinds of coffee prep excepting french press, aeropress and the various ways to make cold brew. Are you talking about instant coffee? Because that's definitely windows....
Slackware.
If you want to learn Ubuntu, download Ubuntu.
If you want to learn Arch, download Arch.
If you want to learn Linux, download Slackware.
And of course nixos user(doesnt exist)(btw i use nixos)
Ooh! It's a Silvia! It's backwards, but it's a Silvia.
I love my Silvia, but I use Pop!
Debian on my servers. Fedora on my laptop. Gentoo in my kitchen (yep that exact espresso machine). I'm all over the place.
I oscillate between void and debian. I use a french press. Idk what that says about me
It means you drink your coffee with your pinky out.
Why, though?
A french press is literally the easiest way to make coffee. There's hardly anything to fuck up and it's dirt cheap - like 10€ at Ikea.
Here it is for editors: https://bsd.network/@ed1conf/113486823218390932
I grind my own and use a manual hand pumped espresso machine. Should I be using BSD?
Microblaze
How does a manual espresso machine work? Do you need to use a cheater bar/lift weights to use one?
Either a hand pump with mechanical advantage or a lever-based machine with a long enough bar to make it easy - at least those are the manuals that I'm familiar with
I have a fairly expensive espresso machine, but I only ever use that one button that makes simple black coffee. What does that say about me?
ChromeOS user.
Declarative distros like nixos and guix just order from a barista or one of those office machines
What are we when we get too old to drink coffee anymore?
I have the second one, it takes about 2 minutes to make a cup of espresso, most of the time unattended, I've had it for 15 years, and yeah, it took some time to learn how to use at first.
I also use Debian, not Gentoo...
Fedora does look cool! It also has lots of customisability through theming and GNOME extensions.
I use Fedora with XFCE, what am I?
Fedora KDE here.
Мдэ... боюсь показывать то, как варю кофе в свете этой картинки. :)

I don't know how accurate it is but here's a translation:
Mdae... I'm afraid to show you making coffee in light of this picture.
I don’t know how accurate it is but here’s a translation:
Yep. I brew my coffee in a jezve or in a balancing siphon. :)
Gentoo and Fedora should be switched. Poor over people are always snobs demanding perfect grinds, perfect water temperature, and perfect pour overs. Espresso users are the same but I like espresso and fedora lol
Pour overs are very forgiving and will give a decent result if your new or just eyeballing measurements but also if you want it exactly like you like it you'll use a scale.
Fedora IMO is pretty forgiving and if I want my Fedora install exactly how I like, I'll follow the same steps as always when configuring and setting up.
Just like a pour over/chemex.
