Is there a /c/linuxdadjokes ?
It was replaced by /rust/linuxdadjokes
damn, that was witty.
Not yet
I know it is a joke, but please do not fragment things into oblivion.
How dare you say something like that in a Linux focused community?!?
(Oh, and this is a joke, don’t read it seriously.)
We just need to create that one single ultimate community for good linux jokes.
Until it splits into c/ubuntudadjokes c/archdadjokes and after that, there is no return
I want an entire instance dedicated to the welcome messages you get from a Slackware terminal.

But the fragments there aren’t the ones they like. So they want theirs in it too.
It’s like reinventing rugby as yank football.
It’s treason then.
Well, there’s !dadjokes@lemmy.world
For non technical readers :
the programming language “Rust” is being used more to make new Linux kernels. Traditionally, the main language for that use was the one by the name “c”.Non-technical readers? In my Linux memes community??
They’re talking to me. I use Mint. I’ve never opened the terminal. Just because some of us aren’t savvy doesn’t mean we aren’t at least casually interested. You could totally be joking too, I guess.
It’s a joke, yeah. Well, or rather a meme. This was a real advertisement, before it got memed on pretty hard:

Man, your attitude is why Linux is still so fringe. That purity test shit is a real turn off.
For a casual user like myself, all that matters is my computer boots, is navigable and runs programs that do what I need. Mint/Cinnamon does that. It does it with no fuss. And every time some great FOSS warrior comes along to tell me it’s not Linux enough I like it even more. I’m not interested in distro hopping, at all. To be really honest, I’m not interested in my computer. I just use it.

"Actually …
I still don’t get why Mint with its legacy Cinnamon desktop is recommended to new Linux users."
Now, we’re not fighting, but I need you to see what you did. This right here is just a milder version of what I had to sort through just to get started. I started using Mint before I came to Lemmy, and Reddit’s Linux subs are just as helpful, forgiving and accepting as the community here. Long time users are snarky, snobby and honestly not very helpful. It’s not just Arch users. It was like Muscle Beach, but digital. Just flexing, no help at all. Then a user suggested that Mint would be a painless transition and they were right. It worked on the first install and within an hour I had Thunderbird opening my email, Blender set back up just like I had it on my poor dead windows 10 desktop, had my slicer. I haven’t argued with anything. I’ve never opened the terminal. That’s why Noobs are often pointed to Mint. And I won’t leave it without a mighty good reason. My computer gets used for some of my hobbies, but computers quit being a hobby for me nearly 30 years ago.

Because mint is familiar. The GUI and most of the keyboard shortcuts are similar to windows. The install is quick and easy, and for the most part everything will just work and be similar to what they’re used to.
Some people just want to be able to turn on their computer and do stuff without having to get used to a whole new UI.
I like my mint and xfce tho :(
It’s more likely than you think.
Surely the main language is still c?
Yes, “c” is still the main language for the Linux kernel… if i read correctly at :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_kernel
Also, no usable stats (about lang. uses) on the “git” that i could get at :
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
… disclaimer : non my domain.
Shoutout to the developers who work on making Linux safer. Adding memory-safe languages to Linux seems like an uphill battle.
It’s such an uphill battle that some people have altogether stopped contributing to Linux. An example is the former Asahi Linux lead developer.
Well, duh: People keep running it on bare metal.
Come on, you guis, seriously?
Wheres wd-40 linux?
I’m gonna bash my head to this fucking joke
The Rust community on Lemmy had been foreshadowing this all along.
sed ‘s/c/rust/g’
The Rust rustommunity on Lemmy had been foreshadowing this all along.
A rustleverly rustonrusteived and rustharmingly rustomirustal rustomebarustk.
Thank you.
Damn that’s dry joke. Good one.
Doctor: Can we talk about C++?
Linus: A-a-a-a-brrrrrr, brbrbr, lololo!!!
Yo dog I heard you like rust so we installed it to sda1 so you can have rust on your rust
-old so very old
yuck yuck yuck
finally a joke for the dads
