is this real?
~ Kinda.
Under the skirt, going up, there's Gentoo, Exherbo, and LFS.
LFS is just a fucking body suit
LFS is Hell.
There was a time I thought I knew how to Linux properly. I could compile kernels fearlessly. But I was wrong. So very, very wrong.....
spoiler
... Other side, there's Bedrock.
Is this sock or skirt length?
Also what are they running? Bare metal?
I need higher socks... All of mine are don't e Ubuntu level.
i use openSUSE and i usually don't wear socks
here it is warm enough for sandals to be practical, but i do have some Linux Mint socks for when i wear hiking boots
i should get some NixOS socks
You should just wear socks with sandals, I hear it's fashionable
I actually use openSUSE too, but my socks are between Mint and Ubuntu.
Temple OS, checking in.

Or is just fantasy?
Arch Linux looks like the AM logo. Coincidence?
my nixOS didn't come with thigh highs
they're available separately
you can install them from a package manager such as Amazon
oh actually my bad, i figured out how to do it declaratively
configuration.nix
{
pkgs,
config,
lib,
...
}: {
# ...
thigh-highs.enable = true;
# ...
}
I mean at least for fedora apparently yes. You guys spying on me wtf?
Nah, ubuntus definitely the ankle socks
Like, yes and no.
For people who are somewhat familiar with Linux, Ubuntu is certainty recognised as being about as mainstream as any distro is able to be, and a safe haven for Linux noobs for decades.
In recent years however it's Mint which has for whatever reason been constantly recommended as a go-to distro for people fleeing the evils of Windows, ramping up especially with the discontinuation of Windows 10.
So right now, Mint might be more of a beginner distro than even Ubuntu.

I use Arch btw
Why does the mouse look like it had blot flies breed apon it?
I think that's to prevent sweaty hands by allowing air to flow through the mouse and past your hand.
I like to breed things okay

You do not want to see an old-school greybeard dressing like this.
You might think you do when you first imagine the concept, but no, you really don't.
Source: Am at the very least greybeard adjacent.
That's funny because seeing that meme, I thought how interesting it was that the "hardcoreness" of a Linux user went from being measured by the length of the greybeard to the height of the programming socks.
Although, I guess back then, the distros mentioned would probably have been revolving around Gentoo, void, slackware, and Linux from scratch. So I suppose greybeards don't necessarily need the high socks.
Damn shame if you ask me.
Upvoted, for being the only one to mention
void
so far.
:)
I mean, if your beliefs in the unix philosophy are still strong enough to do away with the convenience that is (or can be...) systemd, you deserve some respect.
runit is niiiiiice.

I am happy with my system and won't distrohop again, I am happy with my system and won't distrohop again, I am happy with my system and won't distrohop again...
Distro surfing on the side (e.g. with virtual machines, or pendrives, or multiboots, or spare machines), rather than distrohopping for the main daily driver, kept me sane as I surfed (probably) over 1000 distros between 2003 and 2012. Really only had 3 long lasting daily drivers in that time [on my main rig], from suse, to sabayon, to gentoo [and crunchbang and others on the thinkpad].
All my rabid distro surfing (~ not distrohopping, honest! lol) stopped, when I found the cheatcode...
cheatcode to end distrohopping

... Just in case that mantra fails.

as a mint user you can pry my thigh highs from my cold dead hands
Why are you wearing them on your hands?
If they're made for hands, they are gloves.
hey thigh highs are great socks but cut the bottoms off for fingers and thumbs, sew some lace on the top, and add some trinkets for decoration, and they make cute arm warmers too
