-Surviving Mars

Linux it's like a tipi, no gates, no windows, apache inside
Sigma1 14 Jun 2018
I'd like Surviving Mars.

Here is the joke:
Why are there no plants running windows?

They all died because they don't have roots.

Iconoclasts

Do you want to come over and watch my shell collection?
derklempner 14 Jun 2018
I wouldn't mind "Surviving Mars".

JOKE: I told my friend a joke about nano, but he didn't gedit. Even when I told him vi more times.

Surviving Mars.

Here is the joke:
The penguin opened all the windows to find out the apple.

I'd like to try my luck as well. Surviving Mars is my pick.

Can you guess this song?

Surviving Mars please.

Would be great to play Iconoclast!

I like this one:

It's funny because it is true. :D
holofonoro 14 Jun 2018
I'd really like to play Iconoclasts.

WINE runs old Windows games better than Windows 10
If that isn't funny I don't know what is.

"if your VCR is still blinking 12:00, you don't want Linux" from Linus is now kind of a joke, because Linux is rumoured to be easier to install and use than Windows.

"Surviving mars", please.

Arguably those open source attributes could apply equally well to polytheism. But it's certainly an appropriate joke for someone who wants "iconoclasts".
HarryKane 14 Jun 2018
Surviving Mars please!

I am quite sure it has already been posted, but anyway I like it:
Linux is user friendly. It's just picky about who its friends are.
TheBard 14 Jun 2018
I have a good old joke on Linux, it is "comming soon".
kneekoo 15 Jun 2018
Ooh, Surviving Mars would be great! :)

And here's a Linux joke: Microsoft <3 Linux.
Doctoen 15 Jun 2018

systemd's philosophy - its not a bug its a feature
