thecrotch, How do I change the language to EN-US on redstar os?
ccdfa, Follow up: how to change to french on templeOS?
0x4E4F, 
You have to recode the kernel in french.
Threeme2189, Recompile le kernel
0x4E4F, Oui.
spookedbyroaches, In the locale picker it’s called YEE-HAW not EN-US 👍
0x4E4F, You don’t. It’s designed to be unchagable. Only the supreme leader can change that.
mutter9355, sudo = supreme leader do

I’d like you to guess which one of these is fake:
- How do I install Hyprland on NixOS using Flakes?
- How do I install systemd-dispatcher on Void Linux RC?
Edit:
OP has answered, the answer isthat the second one is fake, the first one is real.
ook_the_librarian, 
Whichever one is fake could be real tomorrow.
makunamatata, There is always an alternate reality
AVincentInSpace, do you have any idea the shitstorm that would go down in the Void Linux forums
thecrotch, Is it anything like the daily shit storm in every Linux community?
renzev, Not OP but I know which one is fake because I remember actually doing the other one haha
cyanarchy, If you didn’t tell me one of these were fake I would never have questioned it.
ook_the_librarian, Honestly, just because one is nonsense, it wouldn’t mean it’s fake. I’ve read help forums.
PoolloverNathan, …Neither?
unlawfulbooger, You’re good. I know one of these is definitely real, but the other one is plausible enough to make me think both are real
0x4E4F, They are both fake. Neither of them show up any results on google searches.
leaky_shower_thought, how is the x org x server related to x formerly known as twitter?
callyral, wayland.social
laurelraven, They’re distant cousins, but they avoid each other at family reunions
0x4E4F, It’s his second cousin from his aunt’s sister in law side.
AlijahTheMediocre, Who is Linus and why does he Torvalds
0x4E4F, (edited ) Ah, that’s a interesting story actually.
See, when he was a little kid, he fell a lot on his head and had quite a few concussions. The Swedish word for concussion is “torva”, so they decided to change his sirname in order to scare the concussion daemons away. And that’s why Linus can Toldvalds and why he’s the only one that can Torvalds.
Minnels, As a Swedish person i just learned a new word.
0x4E4F, Glad I could help 😊.
spez, Wait, isn’t he Finnish?
0x4E4F, No, I think he’s Swedish, he just studied in Finland.
MonkeMischief, You could say he Finnished his studies. 😎
thisfro, What is the best init system?
stoicmaverick, It’s the title of my personal book of pick up lines.
0x4E4F, The system that lets you in it.
thisfro, Absolutely true!
kurumin, 
Ngl this is a good one for real
uis, 
Truly. My favorite is OpenRC though.
0x4E4F, No questions on how to exit vim 🤔 🤨?
Crashumbc, I haven’t used vim since collage (I’m currently a aarp member) isn’t it “cntrl-x” ?
ReveredOxygen, 
that is nano
Crashumbc, Pretty sure nano didn’t exist in 93’ oh well
gentooer, But pico did and nano is built to emulate pico.
loudWaterEnjoyer, 
Because the people are stuck in VIM
bhamlin, (edited ) From another terminal:
ps ax | grep vim | awk ‘{print $1}’ | xargs – kill -9
nogrub, the only way to exit vim is to unplug your pc
0x4E4F, Correct!
rxin, How do I exit vmacs?? my coworker must have played s joke on me
0x4E4F, You press the X button.
taanegl, When it comes to quirks mode, what are the do’s and don’ts?
FrostyCaveman, (edited ) DONT waste your time with quirks mode
DO find a new job
Speaking from personal experience
0x4E4F, Don’t install it if you want to keep your sanity. The opposite if you don’t.
dipshit, Wanna fsck?
0x4E4F, Yes. If you’re a guy, you’ll have to wear makeup.
reverendsteveii, what if we just finger and mount?
0x4E4F, (edited ) How about touch?
reverendsteveii, that costs extra
0x4E4F, I’ll take it!
GregorTacTac, (edited ) 
What’s openSUSE? Is closedSUSE its cousin?
0x4E4F, Closed suse is the “gay, but still can’t admit to his parrents” version of opensuse.
kittenzrulz123, What is the best distro and why is it Debian?
0x4E4F, (edited ) Because Debbie is a woman, and we all know why Ian made it the best distro, happy wife happy life.
foggianism, My favorite Metallica song is Seek an Destro.
0x4E4F, Seek and Distro 🤨?
eldain, That is true! I assume Debra had Debbie as a nickname sometimes, full points.
0x4E4F, All Debras are called Debbie.
9point6, Is red hat a good or a bad influence on the ecosystem?
0x4E4F, (edited ) Well, red is darker than white, so if everyone wears red hats, then global warming will most definitely rise.
Blinchik, 
What is GNOME?
Cicraft, A midget
loudWaterEnjoyer,
Blinchik, So thats how linux works, thx
loudWaterEnjoyer, Yes, there is a little colony of gnomes sitting inside the machine. They are the ones doing all the heavy calculations. The bitcoin boom burned out so many of them it’s a total disaster. Currently you could consider them kind if endangered I guess.
0x4E4F, Correct!
ikidd, 
The reason the Year of the Linux Desktop never happened.
Stewbs, 
The Gnomish truth
militaryintelligence, What does L.I.N.U.X stand for
Blue_Morpho, Linux Is Not Uni X
Really_long_toes, I like that
0x4E4F, Linus Is Nuts, Use X
Batman, If you cat a log, what would tail report?
b3an, 
Hey! I just saw the end of that!
0x4E4F, (edited ) First, you don’t “cat a log”, you “cut a log”. Second, tail will report that you’re not in the sudoers group.
PM_ME_VINTAGE_30S, 
Which Linux distribution should I run on my Arduino Uno for maximum performance?
0x4E4F, RedStar OS.
uis, LFS
nogrub, we all know its hannah montana os
