New avatar pet for our Linux crew: The Majestic Penguin!

Dear tiger, I love you but I HAVE A LINUX PENGUIN NOW 😍❤

Thanks @trogus!

Still my favourite one! 🐧

My favorite piece of conference swag, from Nodevember

When u try'na fuck with /etc

I can't earn a stressball in devRant, so how do you like my "Microsoft/Linux/Stressball/Rubberduck/Foam Penguin"?

Am I too late for the rubber duck hype...

Story of a penguin fledgling, one of my end users whom I migrated from Win 7 to Linux Mint. She had been on Windows since Win 98 and still uses Windows at work.

Three months before. Me, Linux might not be as good, but Win 10 is even worse. User, mh.
Migration. User, looks different, but not bad.
One month later. User, it's nice, I like it.
Three months later. User, why does Windows reboot doing lengthy stuff?
Six months later. User, I hate Windows. Why is everyone using this crap?
One year later. Malware issues at work. User to IT staff, that wouldn't have happened with Linux. Me, that's the spirit!

Tux says hello!

Only starting to use Linux (mint) as main os a month ago

Penguin fact: the largest living penguin species is the emperor penguin (1.1m tall, weighs 35kg)

Looking to generate some discussion:

What is your favorite Linux distro and why?

Just a moral story.

It's been a few years I've been using Linux for deployments.

And currently I'm working on a project that has Win on the Server so I'm working on the necessary installations and configurations and I caught myself actually reading everything in the installation and configurations dialogs. And I'm having this urge just to click next and get it overwith.

But thank you Penguin almighty for thee hath introduced patience and knowledge into mine soul. Or else...

... I would've fucked the whole system by a click lol

My friends just got me the best birthday present ever. Always wanted a rubber duckie, never thought I'll have something even better, my own Tux - will call him Tuxy 😊🐧

Some touchscreens onboard weren't working and the flight attendants did the ol turn off and on again.
Tux seems pretty happily stuffed with herring in the corner.

why does Tux the Linux penguin always looks so concerned? it's like, cmon little man, you're awesome and it's ok that that user is using nano instead of vim, he/she will learn. ^^

I'm not sure is it a container technology or a zoo...

Docker is Whale
Docker Compose is Squid
Podman is Seal
Linux is Penguin

Are we live in the Arctic?

Ice King. Lonely, weird, has a penguin for a debugger and doesn't do as he commands... Yup, that's a Linux guy alright.

@ashokramcse I bought it at the end, so sad when people ask me: Why are you wearing a club penguin gildan hoodie? 😥😥

this is my cousin😎, his name is Gentoo(named after linux distro Gentoo(named after penguin species called Gentoo))

I suggested his name, all my folks thought that it's a cool name.

* he's now 10yrs. old, very stable, photo is taken with his permission

I like the new devRant penguin pet, but there's a big problem: it's neither free nor open source.

Linux users, be honest: if I switch over to the penguin, how much time am I going to spend wondering why things don't work as they should and trying to fix them? Will my experiences of development and personal computing merge in this way?

the other devs full avatar makes me go American Psycho.
