    Because I have the kind of autism that makes me enjoy explaining things, I will now explain the jokes. It won’t make them funny, but at least you’ll get them next time. 🤓

    • System Deez Nuts – SystemD is a program that has become a central component of most distributions of Linux. It is a bit controversial (mostly because us Linux folk like to argue, see my other post on this thread) – But it’s just a Deez Nuts pun. The D in SystemD means ‘Daemon’, by the way.
    • Average PulseAudio user – PulseAudio is the component that managed sound on most Linux Distros for many years (nowadays it is slowly being phased out and replaced by Pipewire everywhere). Some people have had problems getting sound out of it. So we get Xenia with earphones that make no sound whatsoever.
    • lp0 on fire – Is an old message that Linux would spit out into its logs in the back-then times when something went very fucking wrong with the printer component of the system. It said ‘on fire’ because it was a dramatic message that would make the user go and look because it meant catastrophic type errors. So we get Xenia with a printer literally on fire.
