    I feel like, for some weird reason, nobody on lemmy knows how meme templates are supposed to be used.

      you mean because of the last two panels which are supposed to be the same? I personally prefer this version, it always bothered me reading the same thing twice which didn’t add much to the meme

            If it doesn’t conform to the format, you should pick a different one that it does conform to and use that instead.

              What if they couldn’t come up with a different format (even tho I may know different formats to use here I sometimes simply don’t know their name (to search for their templates) or I’m just lacking the mental capacity to think of a more fitting one :')

    Image Transcription: Meme

    [Gru, the long-nosed protagonist of the “Despicable Me” franchise, presents to the camera, pointing into the air and smiling. Behind him is a flipchart with text reading:]

    And the best part about using Linux: No viruses!

    [Still presenting, Gru has his hand in a C shape and his head down as he peers at the gap between his fingers. The text now reads:]

    Look at this, a website downloaded a malicious .exe on my machine.

    [Gru now has his hands pointing down, fingers splayed, still presenting. The text now reads:]

    *Double Click*

    See? Nothing happe…

    [Gru looks back to the flipchart in a double-take, his eyes round and wide and his mouth downturned. The text still reads:]

    *Wine is launching*

    [The Wine logo: a slightly tipped wine glass with red wine sloshing inside it.]

    This happened to me not long ago when I found a monero miner running on my laptop. Being a highly technical person, I feel unbounded shame.

        It was pretty easy to spot in htop since it had really high CPU usage. Plus, the command line args it launched with included the word “Monero” multiple times, so that was a bit of a giveaway haha

      Was it still through WINE? I’d feel bad for the miner as well as it likely couldn’t have done the MSR mod so low hashrate lol.

    You really don’t think Linux has viruses? I’m confused by this post. Is it an excuse to shit on wine and windows?

      They’re super rare. I’ve not gotten one once in decades, whereas I’ve encountered countless viruses on Windows. Linux is more secure, but also it’s just a smaller target. Best way to avoid viruses is to use an OS nobody else wants to use *taps head
