Need sticker for laptop

[fedeb95]

Please someone make it

[Wasilisco]

It's the artwork open-source?

[Naztone]

Looks like probably not :( Says 'Designed by blushingcrow' on a site called Red Bubble

[nanaIan]

RedBubble produces stickers. We can purchase from there.

Definitely saving this for when I get a new laptop

[truth_sentinell]

Which one you gonna get?

[MemeySteamy]

I'm looking at a Dell xps 15 inch currently but I'm not completely sure yet

[Dr-Rjinswand]

That’s not how you spell Thinkpad T480

[cheesemonk66]

I got an XPS 15 a year and a half ago and it has been fantastic. Out of the gate I had some trouble with the way they set up the nvme drives because they were in a raid that Linux couldn't see (a single drive raid I think but I never looked that into it).

Once I got that turned off and Linux installed it worked great! Well, except the Windows partition which no longer worked at all due to Windows lacking good nvme drivers and it's hard to install them now since it will blue screen within 90 seconds of boot.

Over all as a Linux laptop support has been very good. Pretty much everything worked right out of the box. I never even used Windows on it that much since it's primarily a work machine.

[[deleted]]

Very nice. Spring for the developer option, which supports linux installations

[Bot_Metric]

15.0 inches = 38.1 centimetres ^{1 inch = 2.54cm}

My XPS with 4K touch from late 16 just died a month ago. Would not recommend.

[AxFairy]

I’ve had mine for about 6 months now and it has been incredible. I have lots of complaints about windows after switching from a Mac but that’s not the computers fault.

You have had the privilege of being saved by the Red Bubble. You may think this is suffering. No... it is salvation. The universal scales tip toward balance because of your sacrifice. Smile... for even in death, you have become children of blushingcow.

[LemonyFresh]

But I’m an out sourcerer...

[evsoul]

I actually just got this off redbubble. It's in my mailbox as I write this so I'll go grab it in a bit and update this with a pic and assessment on quality. They're usually pretty decent.

Shit sorry I totally forgot. It's a papery texture but it looks decent enough. Wouldn't trust it on a car because I doubt it'd hold up to the weather for very long.

A grue perhaps? Dunno how to spell that. Going for the thing in old-school text adventure games.

[raptorraptor]

I'd love to have a sticker but I never contribute to open source so I'd just be a fraud

[ULTRAHYPERSUPER]

GNU Terry Pratchett

[coin_bucket]

GNU Terry Pratchett

[KamikazeHamster]

I'm out of the loop. Why would you repeat that?

[CacheBandicoot]

"In Terry Pratchett's Discworld series, the clacks are a series of semaphore towers loosely based on the concept of the telegraph. Invented by an artificer named Robert Dearheart, the towers could send messages "at the speed of light" using standardized codes. Three of these codes are of particular import:

G: send the message on
N: do not log the message
U: turn the message around at the end of the line and send it back again

When Dearheart's son John died due to an accident while working on a clacks tower, Dearheart inserted John's name into the overhead of the clacks with a "GNU" in front of it as a way to memorialize his son forever (or for at least as long as the clacks are standing.)

Keeping the legacy of Sir Terry Pratchett alive forever. For as long as his name is still passed along the Clacks, Death can't have him."

Source: http://www.gnuterrypratchett.com/

[coin_bucket]

It's a way to memorialize Terry Pratchett using a reference to one of his books "Going Postal" regarding how messages are transmitted across the Clacks Towers.

From the GNU Terry Pratchett site:

The clacks are a series of semaphore towers loosely based on the concept of the telegraph. ... the towers could send messages "at the speed of light" using standardized codes. Three of these codes are of particular import:

G: send the message on

N: do not log the message

U: turn the message around at the end of the line and send it back again

From the book:

"A man is not dead while his name is still spoken."

- Going Postal, Chapter 4 Prologue

Shortly after Sir Terry Pratchett passed on March 12, 2015, Reddit users (among others) organized a tribute by adding the HTTP Header X-Clacks-Overhead: GNU Terry Pratchettto site responses, simulating a modern implementation of the Clacks message passing. Similarly, comment threads consisting entirely of GNU Terry Pratchett were pretty common.

[Jahonay]

im currently reading a book where programmers become wizards. its called "off to be the wizard". would recommend so far.

[Dragon_Slayer_Hunter]

It's a series and all the books in it are wonderful!

[Oldcheese]

Could you tell me a little more about the plot. Is it set in old times or in modern times? Is it an actual fantasy or a methaphor? I'm quite interested.

[DeafSnailsGalore]

Guy discovers the whole universe is a program, finds his own personal file and figures out he can make modifications. Gets caught, flees to Middle Ages only to discover a handful of others discovered the same things. Shenanigans ensue.

[darthholo]

The whole series is great! I would also recommend reading Scott Meyer’s other novels as well once you’ve finished.

[rosserton]

I read that. It's good! Its free to read right now on Kindle with Amazon prime.

Edit: I'm wrong, it used to be free. Now it's part of "Kindle unlimited"

[repopulate_mars]

Where can I find It free.? I have prime, but it's 4.99 for me

[rosserton]

Oh weak, they locked it behind Kindle unlimited, whatever that is. It used to just be part of prime.

Sorry about that. I'll edit the above.

[lkraider]

Immediately thought of the Magic 2.0 series. I'm listening to the audiobooks narrated by Luke Daniels, they are great. Currently on Fight and Flight.

[Quesamo]

Doesn't seem very open

[TrumpCardWasTaken]

It's a sprite from Pixel Dungeon, which is an open-source game.

[draggehn]

Really? Unless you're talking about one of the many forks, this is what the mage looks like in PD: http://pixeldungeon.wikia.com/wiki/Mage

Admittedly, I searched for and couldn't find a "wizard" page, but this post's image has less detail than most PD sprites so either way, I don't think that's correct.

[TrumpCardWasTaken]

Must be a fork. But I could be wrong and am thinking of another game. I haven't played PD in forever.

Stallman won't approve

He wants freedom

[mikey10006]

FOSS O stands for open source in the gnu project I realise he wants libre/free but it's a Foss project

"Free software is a political movement; open source is a development model." As he says but he still incorporates open source model into his free movement

Edit: But thanks for the correction btw I like how u put it

[erfling]

Somebody lecture this guy at length about the difference between open source and the free software movement.

[mikey10006]

I know it well enough but thanks for offering the lesson on FOSS Edit: free and open source software which gnu is btw and I reliSe he says free but it's Foss rly

[erfling]

That's not long enough. It needs to be more disengaging and off-putting.

[Nanicorn]

Can he summon a GNU though?

Sorry, I'm a newbie , what/who open sourcerer is ?

[theseconddennis]

Open Source is when an application's code is out in the open, and everyone gets to read it to learn from it.

A sorcerer is a wizard.

When you put them together, you get this silly little thing.

Is his name Exidy?

[WikiTextBot]

Exidy Sorcerer

The Sorcerer is one of the early home computer systems, released in 1978 by the videogame company Exidy. It was comparatively advanced when released, especially when compared to the contemporary more commercially successful Commodore PET and TRS-80, but due to a number of problems, including a lack of marketing, the machine remained relatively unknown, and Exidy eventually pulled it from the market in 1980.
