    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.

    I use drip and Chemex. And arch and macOs.

    This is pretty accurate.

    If you want to learn Ubuntu, download Ubuntu.

    If you want to learn Arch, download Arch.

    If you want to learn Linux, download Slackware.

    Where does instant coffee fall in this paradigm?

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 10 hours ago

    I use Ubuntu and drink instant, in both cases because I can't be bothered to expend more than minimum effort.

    Didn't miss.

    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.

    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.

    [–] [email protected] 6 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

    In this case the distro doesn't matter. Just have someone else install and maintain it for you.

    [–] [email protected] 6 points 11 hours ago

    That is I guess Windows:

    • Installed by the manufacturer
    • "Maintained" by M$

    Just joking tho, I run Fedora, even lazy people have standards.

    What about instant coffee? Arch user btw

    [–] [email protected] 7 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

    Error. Does not compute. Instant coffee implies Microsoft Windows user. fzzt fzzt Bang

    I use Artix, but hate coffee altogether and would rather drink southern iced tea, what does that say?

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

    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.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 11 hours ago

    Southern iced tea is Lindows. Does anyone remember Lindows? It's called Linspire now.

    Ooh! It's a Silvia! It's backwards, but it's a Silvia.

    I love my Silvia, but I use Pop!

    I grind my own and use a manual hand pumped espresso machine. Should I be using BSD?

    What about “gets my coffee from the free machine in the break room at work”?

    What about Moccha?

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago

    Declarative distros like nixos and guix just order from a barista or one of those office machines

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago

    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...
