I’m going to start this article off by saying that you don’t have to be born in the boomer generation to be a boomer. You can be a boomer by acting like one. Hate new stuff? boomer. Run a desktop from the naughties? Boomer.
“rofl” as you want. We know your mental age and how broken your toilet mind is. You probably get some professional help to fix that. Just don’t laugh at that. It’s no joke.
I don’t know if Lemmy can do it yet, but I remember Reddit and also Facebook( I think) lets you set a minimum account age to post in a community. So we might want to get our mods to do that.
Great, do whatever you want. Just shut the fuck up about it, nobody cares.
But then he proceeds to do the exact opposite and posts a vitriolic rant about how everyone who doesn’t use what they use is, in their words, and idiot.
I'd argue running a laptop from the 00s is the least boomer thing to do. Buying a new Macbook every two years while complaining that you don't have enough money and joking about how you're spending your kid's inheritance is the boomer thing to do.
I am still sad my laptop from 2007 (Compal FL90) died earlier this year. It was still pretty powerful, and really full of ports. I could even add USB3 ports with express card if I wanted to. And unlike with modern laptops, the keyboard had some travel.
Currently I use HP 255 G7. I wasn’t using it because that old laptop simply suited me better. It’s fine, but… I am still looking for a cheap used ThinkPad. But it does have a DVD drive, so that’s nice (yes, I do use that).
Totally useless “article”. You learn nothing, you have to navigate between poor writing with high usage of explectives. It’s like reading a 11 years-old rebel child blog.
Took ya that long? As soon as they went “That’s right fuckface.”, it was over lol. I knew whatever was gonna follow would be some unhinged shit…and it was, save for that one nugget of wisdom that was thrown in there about shutting up and using what you wanted (that of course, they wouldn’t follow. If they did this wouldn’t exist in the first place)

Why even bother having words at all if we’re going to redefine them for clickbait?
What clickbait? Linux boomers is two words and it is common to call people a boomer if they act like one. Linux boomer describes a specific type of boomer.
So yeah, Xfce looks the same as it did 10 years ago.
And?
Desktop environment is meant to launch apps and give me windows and maybe have a file manager. Xfce does that. It's a desktop environment.
Hey, "modern" desktop environment enthusiasts, if you bring Compiz back from the dead, give us luddites a call, will you? Ohhhh you kids should have seen it back in the day. Windows and Mac users saw Compiz in action and were, like, "wat." You don't get them to react that way to modern Linux desktops, no. And all that is lost now. Thanks Wayland.
