Dear Linux community,

In these shite times, we need to remember to see the human in all of us. So I address the humans of this community:

  1. To the Stallmanites. SCREW CORPORATE YEAHHHHH! Each day humanity grows smarter, no matter how many iPad kids or mass media diatribes there are, so celebrate how far we’ve fucking come. Look at your oldest machine. You’re a million times better. My old Slackware was full of SHIT! FUCK YEAH

  2. To the pragmatists. Linux doesn’t get in your way. People get in each others’ ways all the time. But most importantly, don’t get in your own way. If you’re feeling like shit – the human capacity to hope beats everything to a pulp. You know what we do when shit fucks? We submit a fucking pull request. FUCK YEAH

  3. To the hobbyists. Life is a bundle of fun so feel every moment. When you’re old, and you’ll be old as fuck, you’ll be like “fuck yeah I lived every moment of my life up to now.” So fuck another segfault up. Learn C, and call C the best language. Then learn Rust and call Rust the best language. Make a homelab then call homelab the best language. FUCK YAML HOLY SHIIIIIIIT

Flaming hot wishes,

Your fellow fucking human.

        For me personally when i set up my nextcloud server i had to edit yaml files, they wouldn’t open in vim or nano and it was just a general headache

          They are text files. If there is anything weird about them it is that they are indented with spaces and if you are inconsistent with indentation they won’t read into the yaml import function, but I can’t imagine why vim or nano would have a problem with opening them. Maybe the ones you were using were not actually yaml.
