MacOS is Starbucks.
expensive coffee that tastes terrible!
You get to choose between burnt-tasting black coffee and a pint of milk with more syrup than espresso!
Worse, expensive coffee that tastes mediocre, but they insist they were the first ones to add flavourings to it.
Ok, what OS do I need?
Red Hat enterprise Linux?
YiffOS
Definitely Rocky Linux
Ew it’s Netware
Android? On-the-go and everything is boxed. Still only plastic.
Fedora Silverblue
Windows Subsystem for Linux
This response is a hate crime
As a DIYer Linux from Scratch obviously.
Torvalds eating raw coffee beans straight from the can
Stallman prefers to refer to it as Coffee + Creamer.
Stallman dips his toe into the coffee before he drinks it
RMS would never touch Java.
Well except he uses fedora
LFS
i drink instant coffee because i just dont care anymore.
chromebook user
Chromebook is paying for coffee at a coffee shop.
No because then you might get decent coffee sometimes. Chromebook is getting coffee from a 7/11.
Chromebook is the coffee from the coffee machine in my university, which no one ever uses, and no one is certain has ever been cleaned
That shit is nasty.
US or Japan 7/11? I’m pretty sure they’re different grades of coffee.
Nah, Starbucks is MacOS.
It’s more expensive than it needs to be, but it looks really pretty, and fundamentally it’s still coffee, just like MacOS is Unix-based under the hood.
A chromebook is more like a can of coke. It’s caffeinated, has mass-market appeal, but nobody’s going to be spending hours talking about just how great their can of coke is vs. someone else’s can of coke. A high-end chromebook is maybe a glass bottle of Mexican Coke.
Instant coffee is windows, but you pirated it and disabled automatic updates. Cheap, kinda shitty, but it gets the job done.
I feel under represented
That’s because you’re clearly a BSD user
This
True. Very classy, kinda annoying and also fancy. Kinda complex but simple concept behind it.
You have to repeatedly clean up the mess but its also rather easy to shake out. So semi automatic updates.
I feel like an idiot for taking so long to get one. After i brought it, a friend regifted me a milk frother. Zap the milk for 30 seconds and whip and you’ve got a barista drink at home.
The moka pot design is small, efficient, and doesn’t scale. So some flavor of embedded distro?
It scales great actually. Have you never seen one of those mini pots that only make enough for one small cup?
bam! this is what i came here for. love my mokapot!
Couldn’t really make it work for me, gas stove and a moka pot seems too finicky. So I just do pourover
I did use it on a gas stove (brought it with me when was on vacations at my parents lol) and totally works
I think yours specifically might have a design issue
I doubt it. The moka pot in general is finicky. Unless you put milk or something into the coffee I find it rather harsh and I don’t like milk in coffee.
This is 100 % a matter of technique, I can make a good cup of coffee with it. I just need to dial in grind and ratios right, but even then it’s hard to control the temperature. By the time I go to that sputering hissy phase it becomes harsh and very bitter.
In general it’s hard for me to find the sweet spot between battery acid and coal juice with a moka pot. Pourover is much more forgiving and consistent.
Huh! we definitely don’t have the same taste, as I only ever drink coffee with milk, and as such i don’t care much about the exact taste that comes out of moka pot
Thanks for you feedback!
I use a Kerrigan, but I’m a debian guy.
The Ol’ reliable. Takes a bit of work, but the result is great. Debian stable.
All I’m getting from this is that arch is easier than I expected and will give me a much better end result than the distros I’m used to.
Absolutely yes to the first part, just use archinstall. The second is in large part up to you, but pacman + AUR are amazing.
Yeah, this is the way, doing it manually is fun and all but its highly unnecessary extra effort as there are very little reasons as all of it is just configuration of the system. Archinstall is just the Text-GUI version that still offers the customize ability of the install. Heck you can load a configuration file that you can make before hand so that you don’t need to babysit the installation and can reproduce it in other systems/PCs.
I suppose this depends entirely on your expectations?
Arch is a doddle these days, but still has excellent documentation, which was always it’s strength (archwiki is life), read, learn. Personally it led me via fedora for stability to immutable ublue kinoite. When NixOS is there (stable), so shall I be, in the meantime I am happy with a distrobox arch with the AUR for all my random needs…
It is very manual though. For rolling release BTRFS snapshots like on Fedora and Opensuse Tumbleweed are a total must.
Hannah Montana Linux: Red Bull
all of these are valid options for making coffe.
but what distro is this?
Slackware probably.
This is what I use. I just downloaded Mint Cinnamon yesterday. Not sure if that means anything.
I’m a Mint Cinnamon user, and to me, Mint Cinnamon is a typical drip machine with a built in timer and some nice extra features. It’s a bit fancier than Debian but still simple and reliable to use.
A french press I think represents Pop!_OS.
i was about to say linux mint as well. dump some coffe in, some water, press it down and off you go!
non-proprietary and very reliable.

Nixos? Lol maybe that’s aeropress tho
No matter what this is but its truly based.
Probably.
OpenSUSE Thumbleweed?
I’m really sad there isn’t a French press on here. That’s what I use and I was hoping to discover what my coffee distro is :-(

Nor a moka pot, which is my preferred way.
Seeing as how the grounds are still sitting in the finished product, I’m going to say BSD but you don’t clear out the ports tree.
I’m not a BSD guy, but I like your analogy
As a French press user, I also opt for easier routes to Arch (EndeavourOS), and my head canon says so do we all.

Still scarred from my first Arch introduction years ago, I guess. Before it did.
It has a step-by-step guide on the wiki lol
Yup, those scars.
Y’all acting like 10 years is a long time… I expect that to be the minimum out of any capital expense for a “durable” good.
So… which version of Debian are you running at the moment?
I wish
Which distro uses a French press?
Voidlinux
Nobody else can tell that the end product is any different, but you know you’re different and special and that’s what matters.
How dare you. Everyone that I force to try my coffee says it’s amazing!
Its at least different.

Say you have never used a french press without saying you’ve never used a french press.
French press is the only way I have to make coffee at home, and I make one every day.
It’s called humor, it’s not supposed to be taken literally.
Humwhat?
Funny, I would have said the same about voidlinux.
I think a common misconception about voidlinux is that it’s a distro solely used by people who have made it their lifegoal to tell people about how bad systemd is. I use void because it’s fast, and frankly because I like the way void does stuff. I feel like many people in the community are much more indifferent to systemd than people realize.
Big aeropress fan. Where’s the Linux equivalent of that?
You know, Arch feels more like aeropress than a pourover.
I reckon Alpine. Nice and minimal …
Judging by what I use, NixOS.
see my other comment in this thread…
Debian user here. This is scary accurate.
I’m offended, but then I had to acknowledge that I’ve been using Debian since 1995.
I use Ubuntu and that is literally the coffee machine I use… Except I don’t use the actual cups, I’m basically only using it as a source of hot water, and instead I use different cups that are reusable, and just are there to hold the coffee grounds. And similarly, I got flathub on Ubuntu, installed shit to get appimages working, and accidentally uninstalled gnome at one point, which took me an hour to fix mostly because it just stopped at a terminal I couldn’t input anything on, so I had to figure out that I could open up a new one that would actually let me log in and reinstall gnome.

Ctrl + Alt + F3
The problem was more that I didn’t even know what I was looking at. It just stopped at a screen with terminal output from it booting up, so I thought it was just stuck… After a bit I found something on an arch forum that mentioned opening up a new terminal instance (or something like that), and how to do it, which led me to realize that gnome got uninstalled.
Once I figured that out it only took 5 minutes to fix, but I only found that after an hour of assuming that it was frozen and trying to fix that.
Fedora should be French press but yeah lol
True. Tooling but not too much.
Looks complicated to the uninitiated, works fairly quickly and simply to those that are familiar with coffee, but the output is divided between those that believe it to be a superior product for the commitment and those that don’t see it as worth it compared to other methods.
Sounds just like Fedora lol
Slackware: Start by planting your own coffee plants…
Gentoo: do you want to use soil?
Nah, that’s LFS
