1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    You can tell how old an image is by counting the jpg artifact rings. This one is from 2005 by my estimates.

    For one, it's got Steve Jobs in it, and he's been dead since 2011.

    If I were to make the same meme today, I would still use him, so I'm not sure this dating method holds any water.

    I think that's the right choice. If i need to imagine "apple boss" the face of jobs appear in my mind. The current one is Tim Cook, right? I'm sure I'd recognize him if I saw his picture, but at the miment I'm not able to picture him.

    Did he always dress like Steve Jobs? I mean, I do too, but it feels creepy

    [–] wick@lemm.ee 3 points 7 months ago

    I'm sure his wardrobe is carefully curated by a committee to sell more phones.

    [–] ikidd@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

    Recognizing Tim Cook is easy, he's the puckered hole between two flabby buttcheeks.

    [–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

    Fair enough

    [–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    he's been dead since 2011

    how is this new to me 💀

    [–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    I've no idea. I've made probably 50 jokes about "the ghost of Steve Jobs" in the last decade

    [–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    i knew he was the founder of Apple but that's where I was out of fucks to give

    [–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    Oh, well you may be interested to know he died because he attempted to cure cancer by eating nothing but fruit

    [–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    by eating nothing but fruit

    let me guess, apples?

    [–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    Nah just fruitarianism

    [–] LilaOrchidee@feddit.de 3 points 7 months ago

    An exercise in fruitility

    [–] menemen@lemmy.world 16 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

    And it is stil, accurate (except S. Jobs death). Fuck we do not evolve. :(

    I feel the Linux - Linux fanboy is very wrong these days. It does not have a monitor at 22 degrees

    [–] redcalcium@lemmy.institute 4 points 7 months ago

    I'm often blinded by flickering due to the recent Nvidia issue on Wayland so it's still accurate.

    [–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 5 points 7 months ago

    Still relatable to this day, though.
