Arch user should be an aeropress: people can’t seem to shut the hell up about how great it supposedly is
Ok, what OS do I need?
MacOS is Starbucks.
expensive coffee that tastes terrible!
You get to choose between burnt-tasting black coffee and a pint of milk with more syrup than espresso!
Worse, expensive coffee that tastes mediocre, but they insist they were the first ones to add flavourings to it.
Torvalds eating raw coffee beans straight from the can
i drink instant coffee because i just dont care anymore.
chromebook user
Chromebook is paying for coffee at a coffee shop.
No because then you might get decent coffee sometimes. Chromebook is getting coffee from a 7/11.
Chromebook is the coffee from the coffee machine in my university, which no one ever uses, and no one is certain has ever been cleaned
That shit is nasty.
US or Japan 7/11? I’m pretty sure they’re different grades of coffee.
Nah, Starbucks is MacOS.
It’s more expensive than it needs to be, but it looks really pretty, and fundamentally it’s still coffee, just like MacOS is Unix-based under the hood.
A chromebook is more like a can of coke. It’s caffeinated, has mass-market appeal, but nobody’s going to be spending hours talking about just how great their can of coke is vs. someone else’s can of coke. A high-end chromebook is maybe a glass bottle of Mexican Coke.
Instant coffee is windows, but you pirated it and disabled automatic updates. Cheap, kinda shitty, but it gets the job done.
RedHat: Any of these, but you’re paying a barista to make it.
I feel under represented
That’s because you’re clearly a BSD user
This
True. Very classy, kinda annoying and also fancy. Kinda complex but simple concept behind it.
You have to repeatedly clean up the mess but its also rather easy to shake out. So semi automatic updates.
bam! this is what i came here for. love my mokapot!
The moka pot design is small, efficient, and doesn’t scale. So some flavor of embedded distro?
It scales great actually. Have you never seen one of those mini pots that only make enough for one small cup?
I feel like an idiot for taking so long to get one. After i brought it, a friend regifted me a milk frother. Zap the milk for 30 seconds and whip and you’ve got a barista drink at home.
Couldn’t really make it work for me, gas stove and a moka pot seems too finicky. So I just do pourover
I did use it on a gas stove (brought it with me when was on vacations at my parents lol) and totally works
I think yours specifically might have a design issue
I doubt it. The moka pot in general is finicky. Unless you put milk or something into the coffee I find it rather harsh and I don’t like milk in coffee.
This is 100 % a matter of technique, I can make a good cup of coffee with it. I just need to dial in grind and ratios right, but even then it’s hard to control the temperature. By the time I go to that sputering hissy phase it becomes harsh and very bitter.
In general it’s hard for me to find the sweet spot between battery acid and coal juice with a moka pot. Pourover is much more forgiving and consistent.
Huh! we definitely don’t have the same taste, as I only ever drink coffee with milk, and as such i don’t care much about the exact taste that comes out of moka pot
Thanks for you feedback!
The Ol’ reliable. Takes a bit of work, but the result is great. Debian stable.
I use a Kerrigan, but I’m a debian guy.
Hannah Montana Linux: Red Bull
All I’m getting from this is that arch is easier than I expected and will give me a much better end result than the distros I’m used to.
Absolutely yes to the first part, just use archinstall. The second is in large part up to you, but pacman + AUR are amazing.
Yeah, this is the way, doing it manually is fun and all but its highly unnecessary extra effort as there are very little reasons as all of it is just configuration of the system. Archinstall is just the Text-GUI version that still offers the customize ability of the install. Heck you can load a configuration file that you can make before hand so that you don’t need to babysit the installation and can reproduce it in other systems/PCs.
I suppose this depends entirely on your expectations?
Arch is a doddle these days, but still has excellent documentation, which was always it’s strength (archwiki is life), read, learn. Personally it led me via fedora for stability to immutable ublue kinoite. When NixOS is there (stable), so shall I be, in the meantime I am happy with a distrobox arch with the AUR for all my random needs…
It is very manual though. For rolling release BTRFS snapshots like on Fedora and Opensuse Tumbleweed are a total must.
As an Arch user who only makes pour-over coffee, I feel deeply attacked
all of these are valid options for making coffe.
but what distro is this?
This is what I use. I just downloaded Mint Cinnamon yesterday. Not sure if that means anything.
I’m a Mint Cinnamon user, and to me, Mint Cinnamon is a typical drip machine with a built in timer and some nice extra features. It’s a bit fancier than Debian but still simple and reliable to use.
A french press I think represents Pop!_OS.
i was about to say linux mint as well. dump some coffe in, some water, press it down and off you go!
non-proprietary and very reliable.

Slackware probably.
Nixos? Lol maybe that’s aeropress tho
No matter what this is but its truly based.
OpenSUSE Thumbleweed?
Probably.
I’m really sad there isn’t a French press on here. That’s what I use and I was hoping to discover what my coffee distro is :-(
I’m really sad there isn’t a French press on here
Nor a moka pot, which is my preferred way.
Seeing as how the grounds are still sitting in the finished product, I’m going to say BSD but you don’t clear out the ports tree.
I’m not a BSD guy, but I like your analogy
As a French press user, I also opt for easier routes to Arch (EndeavourOS), and my head canon says so do we all.

Still scarred from my first Arch introduction years ago, I guess. Before it did.
It has a step-by-step guide on the wiki lol
Yup, those scars.
Couldn’t be more wrong for me, lol
Also, I feel like instant coffee should be represented - it’s one of the most common preparation methods and it’s easy to dunk on.
GNU Guix, and NixOS, respectively
Fedora user made this…

Linus Torvalds uses Fedora lmao
For asahi on Mac m1 iirc. What coffee is he?
Fairtrade Coffee from Starbucks
Nah since 2008 according to Wikipedia. But I feel like Asahi would be a siphon coffee maker
Uhm… I dont think so XD
