  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • 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.
    • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Also sorry to all the real weebs out there who felt a minor anyeurism at reading this up-down left-to-right instead of manga right-left as Nihei intended. I made the meme for westerners in mind.

    Whatever this is, it doesn't work well without prior understanding of whatever this manga is and how that Sci-Fi gun works. Who's firing at who? What in the fuck is even going on? If Windows is veering off target then why are we seeing people blown up like it was successful?

    I'm guessing that your joke is that all the Linux variants are some overcharged killshot, but Windows can't hit the target? But then some of the panels make no sense.

    So is this is in essence "I drew myself as the chad and you as the sad soyjak, that means I win!"?

    Where funny?

    This meme was originally made for the !netsphere@sopuli.xyz community in an attempt to give a super niche manga artist fan place a little bit of engagement, I crossposted it here as an afterthought didn't expect go be brigaded so hard by armchair memologist over the objective definition and location of the funny.

    You're absolutely correct that you need to have read the Blame! manga to get the reference on this one to really enjoy, even if you did its not that deep. Not too much thought went into it I was high as shit just pasting icons with the 'linux chad big energy beam, windows/microsoft wojak bad guys its fired at'. Im personally okay with not every one of my memes being super accessible or community bangers I had fun making this and putting the template together. If you get the humor or like the template great. If you don't, oh well downvote say 'where funny' and move on with your life cause im not wasting my time explaining what a graviational beam emitter is to snobs who don't care in the first place.

    I've read all of BLAME! and I still don't get it. Sad/Bad meme.

    I loved it but I have no idea what was going on! Many of the panels have too much detail to parse.

    [–] Hominine@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

    I had to dip into the wiki from time to time to get caught up on small details. There's a lot to miss, no doubt.
