SteamOS:

Mint should be a Mitsubishi Mirage. People make fun of it, sure, but it keeps working anyway.
Mint is best for my purposes. Making fun from it is silly
Debian: Makes you look cool until you hit something and get thrown out and die.
Why is kali always in these memes? Does anyone actually use it?
You’re not supposed to, which means that lots of people probably do.
Yes and yes.
It’s a very easy way to have all the pen testing software you want when you wanna feel like a hacker.
Sounds stressful.
Is it not like having a stockpile of live weapons where you have to keep checking if the safeties are on?
To be fair, Ubuntu is using older kernels than Debian these days. Ubuntu has become the old man of distro’s
Being use debian and enjoying it so far.
Fedora

Proxmox?

Which would make this ESXI?

Especially since it’s on its way out.
BedrockLinux?

???Or probably more accurately one of these BYOVs:

I think you do not know what BedrockLinux is.

Still wrong bedrock.
Next you’ll be showing me a block of

You confused fedora with RHEL (before 6)
No, I’m just old 😢
Or maybe yes, I’m just old idk 😭

Linux From Scratchthe finnish origins of both makes it extra good
fun game!
Arch is kinda more like looking at a catalogue of parts.
Endevour is the same catalogue of parts, but with a flier inserted with a “recommmended loadout” where you can just check some boxes and get whatever it was you wanted, but the doors there to sawzall the trunk off and attach a cargo box if you want.
In my experience, Arch (with pacman at least) is like clipping lego bricks together. Like “Oh, a wanna do this? Best get that”.
Gentoo is just a pile of steel and aluminum beams, a few drums of oil, a cow, and a note that reads “Good luck.”
That’s lfs. Gentoo is a kit car like the Blakley Bearcat.
Edit: I’m gonna go read Gary Paulsen books now
Debian should be a small truck (i.e. one that’s actually used for cargo, not as a penis prosthetic), and the bottom right is clearly Gentoo!
1995 Toyota Hilux

Please…

No one realizes how perfect of a choice this actually is.

Best episode they ever did.
Agreed
All i see is a technical waiting to be born.
I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as a technical, is in fact, GNU/Technical, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Technical.
That fits the vibe of Debian very well!
devuan
I can’t remember the name of it, but there’s one type of inexpensive small truck that I see people wishing for in the US constantly. Very utilitarian and barebones function over form. That would be a good fit.

That’s the one!
These kinds of trucks are called kei trucks.
Alpine?
Kei Truck
Ehhh, I think Debian should be like a 10-15 year old civic or something. You know an “ol’ reliable” type. It isn’t up to date and it’s not flashy, but it works and it works well.
Mint would probably be like a 2 year older version but with a fresh coat of paint and a lifted suspension.

no way a 50s chevy is debian.
debian would actually be a boring but super practical camry or something.

I like to think it’s fitting for the analogy that with NixOS/Guix, you get access to the entire factory to build your car, since you pretty much have a framework at your disposal to build up your system how you want it.
Edit: should’ve scrolled a bit further, someone already beat me to it lol. Great minds think alike.
The Delorian works too, but my brain jumped to something like this…

Nah NixOS is a picture of a factory automatically making cars
“I want to change the radio station, get me a new car!”
3D printing cars.
That’s actually a realy good comparison!
More exactly, the typewriter used to send commands to the car factory. Steampunk style
J.R. ‘BoB’ Dobbs uses Slackware:

Tho’ sometimes he’ll drive:

gentoo is just a bunch of metal
