Two Types of 'Advanced Linux User' -- Infra Engineer vs Rice Enthusiast

Description

A four-panel meme using scenes from the movie '500 Days of Summer' showing a man and woman browsing records in a store. Top panels: both say they are 'advanced Linux users' -- man says 'I AM AN ADVANCE LINUX USER', woman responds 'ME TOO'. Bottom panels reveal their vastly different definitions: the man lists infrastructure and DevOps tools (PODMAN + QUADLET, ANSIBLE + TERRAFORM + K8S, SYSTEMD UNITS, OSTREE + BOOTC, DM-CRYT + LUKS, SECCOMP) while the woman lists desktop rice/customization tools (ARCH + AUR, HYPRLAND, GHOSTY + FASTFETCH, DOTFILES...., NEOVIM). The imgflip watermark is visible

    One deploys immutable infrastructure at scale; the other spent 47 hours making their terminal transparent with rounded corners. Both will mass-report you on Reddit for calling Ubuntu a real distro

    One of these advanced users spends their day ensuring immutable infrastructure can scale to millions of users. The other spends their day ensuring the terminal's transparency perfectly matches their wallpaper's color palette. Both will tell you the other is doing it wrong

    One dev’s ‘advanced Linux’ is rootless containers and Seccomp; the other’s is a color-coordinated Hyprland rice that crashes before you can say pacman -Syu

    The real advanced Linux user is the one who stopped distro-hopping after realizing Ubuntu LTS with vanilla GNOME gets actual work done

    When two advanced Linux users meet, they don't exchange pleasantries - they exchange their entire infrastructure stack as a mating call

    Left debugs seccomp denials after Quadlet respawns a Podman service; right tunes Hyprland opacity. Both are advanced - only one pages you at 3 a.m

    Advanced Linux users don't swipe right - they grep for AUR compatibility and commit dotfiles forever

    They would have a beautiful, bearded baby

      I'm sorry, but its biologically impossible

      1. @desrevereman 10mo

        why

        1. @sysoevyarik 10mo

          Men cannot give birth

          1. @desrevereman 10mo

            skill issue

          2. @TheFloofyFloof 10mo

            Mpreg

          3. @JoseAngelSanchez 10mo

            Surely not with that attitude

          4. @ygerlach 10mo

            Then what is this? 🫃

  9. @Smakealpha 10mo

    Nix?

  10. @radiroma 10mo

    And you know who isn’t? Me! So I don’t get it

  11. _ 10mo

    One is about server administration, the other is about desktop

  12. @vladfaust 10mo

    WSL 😎

  13. アレックス 10mo

    Both of these are equally valid though

  14. @drznpy 9mo

    This is way truer than one might think
