We are a group of professionals who work with Linux systems daily and want to share our experience and knowledge with the greater world. And yes, we do use AI generated images for our article posts, and yes they are filled with non-sense words.
@kevinbowen enjoy being an angry person, you and your cat may move on.nothing to validate your brilliance here.
@kevinbowen you shouldn't. Probably better if you don't.
@randomgeek @philsplace the generated images are just kinda going to be there, I am not a graphic artist and don't have time to make one off images for every article,
@randomgeek @philsplace been meaning to turn the author byline back on, the posts that show the wrong author is from RSS fed articles, I will work on getting the cleaned up.
Perl was weird, messy, brilliant, and absolutely foundational to the early web.
Before modern frameworks and JavaScript everywhere, Perl powered CGI scripts, forms, counters, search tools, admin panels, and the kind of text processing that made the first dynamic websites possible.
A lot of people remember Perl as a joke. History says otherwise.

Linux desktop adoption doesn’t fail because new users can’t learn.
It fails when we welcome them with a pop quiz.
When someone says “I’m trying Linux,” and the first response is “Actually, it’s GNU/Linux,” that’s not help — it’s semantic gatekeeping. Status signaling disguised as “accuracy.” And it pushes curious newcomers right back to Windows/macOS.

Stop Saying “Actually, It’s GNU/Linux” - LINUXexpert
New Linux desktop users don’t leave because they can’t learn—they leave because the community makes them feel unwelcome. The “Linux is just a kernel” / “Actually it’s GNU/Linux” correction is often semantic gatekeeping that signals superiority, not helpfulness. If we want broader Linux adoption, we need fewer pedantic gotchas and more guides.
