To be fair. This can be applied to apple and windows users sometimes.

Some of us do, but you can see their eyes glaze over the moment you mention Linux...
Have you heard the good word of our Lord and savior....
Good idea. When the Mormons come by, start talking to them about Linux. If they start reading scripture, you start reading man pages.
Dangerous move. What if they adopt Linux? You're then obliged to become Mormon.
This show the importance of licences ; if you request not only Linux but free licences, it makes it easier !
Accept to become mormon but if their scripture are provided under GNU GPL V3+, then you can hack them the way you want...
I don't think you can fork Mormonism.
Tbf arenβt most Christian religions forks? Of original Catholicism, which itself is a fork of Judaism?
They are different distros, and fork of distros, of a same original project. Yet it is sad to see how the trolls of the different branches are aggressive toward others.
Don't you think switching to Linux could help them in finding better ways to promote their favorite distro?
Yet, I admit linuxians too tend to have a favorite distro they fight for even if they haven't tried most others, and therefore without knowing if theirs is really better...
Petrus just published the spec (allegededly following the design of some "Jesus"). Catholicism was one of its' early implementations it did not become dominant before the Roman Empire declared it the industry standard 300 years later.
Iβm really starting to regret replying to this thread.
You can fork all religions back to paganism or tribal culture
Yeah, but then I have to back port the wifi drivers. Fucking Debian.
If you can't fork it, you would better work on an other existing project that you can fork ; or start an other one from scratch...
And (optionally) call back the mormons every 15 minutes so they join yours...
man pages? Time for you to study the scripture, heathen!
Uhhh... I have news for you.
But is it a solid distro though?
Ubuntu, so...
Jesus ~~wept~~ snapd
