Where my klitoris users at?
(midwest.social)
Programmer HumorWho is this Clitoris fellow everyone always talks about? Is he like Diogenes or some shit?
klitoris: Permission denied
bash: klitoris: command not found...
:(
No, you should touch klitoris or finger klitoris, not bash it.
man klitoris
no manual entry for klitoris
Well that explains a lot.
This is such an underrated joke.
Use the -f option to find it
Me naming my files: fgzvtj
I don't think that app exists but there is this
https://github.com/openlyst/klit
Is it Klit or Kilt, the readme literally says both...
I'm kind of surprised that Apple didn't name the iPhone just "Phone".
Probably not enough to get recognised as a brand.
Common dictionary words are not trademarkable. In fact, if an existing trademark becomes common in speech it becomes genericized and the trademark is lost. One of my personal hobbies is doing that to Velcro.
That, and you've got to remember how big iPods were at the time. In 2007, it was weird that Apple was entering the cell phone market. The iSomething branding basically saved the company in 2001 with the iMac and iBook, the iPod was the first electronics gadget I ever remember being worn as a status symbol, the first that got treated like designer clothing or shoes. That "I have an iPod, and you have...whatever that is." White headphone cords were a fashion statement. The Motorola Razr phone got the same treatment before the iPhone.
One of my personal hobbies is doing that to Velcro
Oh you mean velcro?
Is this xerox a Canon?
See? It's working.
That's a brand??? Then what's the actual thing called?
Hook and loop fastener or something long and unwieldy

GNOME folks are like "well, before GNOME was even a thing, we had this application called The Gimp, and we kinda wish we didn't call it that, so please don't name your apps for laughs OK?"
It's my favorite app to play around with
Search results: klitoris not found.
Wetware feature.
Is the GNOME version called Gock?
I would not be surprised if KDE already had "Klitoris"
It would have to be some horrid acronym for something like KDE Library Integration Tool Offering Recursive Integration Services or some shit.
Windows does have the best naming schemes
The most clearest description of file explorer: Dolphin (?)
Or nautilus. My assumption is the files are in your sea not in their cloud.
Lumberjack or woodpecker honestly would have been better names since file systems are basically trees
The application most likely to cause confusion among True Gamers™ who got fed up with Windows.
(PRO TIP: dolphin is the KDE file manager, dolphin-emu is what you really want. PRO TIP 2: To defeat the PulseAudio daemon, shoot at it until it dies)
Oh, a hybrid of dolphin and an emu. What a wonderful idea.
Like if Nautilus is any better
Or, like, Total Commander. A wild guess would be some strategy game.
Once a couple employers ago, I got an email from IT admins demanding that I uninstall that "game".
Wasn’t it named after Norton Commander?
I mean, yeah, but then the same applies to Norton Commander as well :D
The nautical theme also continues with Nemo
Dolphin, the total commander of nautilus!
WDYM "explorer", is that some weird name for a file manager?
You can explore file system, but how would you dolphin it?
It kind of makes sense. You are swimming the sea of misorganized random piles of files and folders you have created.
It's telling me to slow down when I try to look under the hood.
I keep having to work around it.
The terms-of-service were too confusing.
It's not klitoris, I was in the pool.
You think that's the worst?
Jarvis, kill this developer
It's a literal loli snatcher. what did you think it was going to be named?
Passable censoring, 2/3 successfully censored
I hope they changed the name and icon. Edit: it's still there somehow
I feel like they made the app for this exact purpose and are proud to say it.
good theory
I'm still amazed people use and browse the septic tank of the internet. Xitter just won't stop.
It's still the best social media for anything worthwhile. Hyperlocal news, sports, government agencies, corporate news, everyone posts there since nobody looks at Facebook anymore and Instagram is mainly for pics. All the good artists are on Twitter as well.
Nobody is posting to Mastodon because actually finding information and people is proper impossible. I mean hell I almost never see any posts from Mastodon getting posted to any meme community because everyone is all tech and politics and doom and serious.
I wonder if Twitter just hung onto market share in India while it hemorrhaged users in the anglosphere? IIRC we've seen this with Facebook in a few places. Basically everyone I want to follow moved to Bluesky or at least is posting their content there too - there's a few local governments that are stuck in 2010 technologically due to indifference or lack of budget that still only post stuff to Twitter but that's fairly unusual, but is infuriating enough for people to post about it.
Fuck blue sky. Use mastodon.
That's possible, I don't know literally anyone from India on Bluesky; In fact there's more people I personally know who are on Mastodon as it's prevalent in the FOSS ecosystem. But Mastodon doesn't bring in general people easily so literally the only people I follow there are related to the FOSS ecosystem (and similar nerds)... A lot of the accounts I follow are just bots which mirror content from Twitter.
And that's why i support the pedophile trillionaire. For memes and stuff
I know that I’m just one person, but I find it interesting how I’m always online but never using twitter, ever, for anything. I’m not even trying to avoid it. And yet, it’s so damn popular. I just hate the format.
I actually don't like the format too much myself but ever since they raised the character limit it's a bit better to follow
"noooo i can't read corporate slop from government agencies and my favorite ragebaititng influencer news on Mastodon nooo, must read Xitter!!!"
noooo i can't read anything at all worth talking about and no one is on mastodon, noooo must rage into my depressed people's echo chamber
It's still the best social media for anything worthwhile.
I was a fool for expecting a serious response 🤣
Ironically nextdoor is actually pretty active, but goddamn is it a toxic cesspool of fascism. I can't even try on that platform anymore. I tried for a few months, and naw. I don't like surrounding myself with willfull ignorance.
Never heard of that in my life. Not available in my country I guess
Gnome: GSpot. It doesn't actually exist (GNOME devs though there was no use case for it)
2026version: copilot internet 365 just shortened to copilot after the next MBA is hired.
Seriously, all Windows software is starting to sound the same, with as little clue as possible as to what it actually does. Remote Desktop on Mac is called "Windows App". What does that mean? Everything else is called 365.
It's called Windows app on Windows now as well. But they also have remote desktop still, and they're not intercompatible.
Microsoft truly are terrible at naming things. They always have been. Remember XBone?
At the same time, I liked .NET's no-nonsense naming of namespaces. When I see something like System.Threading.Tasks, I can immediately recognise that it's a namespace that deals with task-based parallelism. Then you have tokio in Rust and I want to stab the person that came up with the name. Same for clap and serde. They mean nothing unless you already know what those packages do.
Yeah except that it's literally called .NET, pronounced dot net, they included a punctuation symbol in the name. Is it a programming language for the web, nope. So why's it called that?
.NET is branding that Steve Ballmer came up with, and yes, it was originally meant to be a set of network and internet frameworks. The .NET Framework was an underlying interface that other .NET products would use. It was then superseded by .NET Core, which was later renamed to .NET.
You're comparing system packages to user-provided packages.
User-provided packages need to have names that are easily searchable. If you named a package eg threading, searching for $PROGRAMMING_LANGUAGE threading would give you a ton of irrelevant results
The people making the programming language and related tooling seem to know what's up.
The people making other various products all seem to want to be a super special naming boy.
We need a command line interface named Toris. CLI Toris
Thought about this a little more. Cut and paste can be rebranded as excise and stitch.
I'm a dev. I develop little prototypes and things with Rust. I often create a new repository and don't give the project a name, until I've coded enough of it that I know where it's going.
A few years back, the makers of the programming language Rust started punishing people for prepending rust- before the names of their tools and apps. They recommended that people append -rs to the end.
The combination of these two things caused me to end up with a whole bunch of repositories named something like cli-rs or clitool-rs, both of which I'd just pronounce as clitoris.
There really is no drama like programming language drama.
Searched everywhere and can't find the download. Does anyone have a link for the latest klitoris? I can't locate it and my wife is getting pissed.
Are you suggesting there is something wrong with any of these names:
- gimp
- finger
- john the ripper
- libcaca
- toilet
- fsck
> man woman
No manual entry for woman
Also, in Italian "sudo" means "I sweat".
sudo nano
means "I sweat, dwarf"
unzip, strip, touch, finger, grep, mount, fsck, more, yes, fsck, fsck, fsck, umount, sleep
man
every Command Line Interface Tool
(not Linux but there are special printers for clothing called DTF's )
man man
I just watched that movie.
This week, I ran 'man mount' while learning about bind mounts.
I giggle every time I see 'man touch'
I mean there are audiovisual teaching aids for how to mount men all over the Internet. Or so I'm told
In this context I really hope you mean aides.
jq, ed
Also there's Rufus
Don't forget fuck
Man, I remember laughing like a school boy when I first heard of the "finger" util in college, lol.
Also finger \! && exit
Also bitchx
I like how developers are not shying away from possibility of them having foot fetish (foot terminal, gnome logo being a foot)
The foot is actually symbolic for the devs stepping all over you with their opinionated design and no choices
Ah so BDSM then /s
No just BSD
BSDMobile?
IOS
Oh. Plenty, they just don't fuck with 'consent'.
I avoided Gnome for exactly that reason for years but the shell extensions for gnome have improved a lot and it's pretty flexible now. If you don't mind depending on the addin authors maintaining your favorites.Dash to panel or dock is virtually a whole different UI.
I honestly find it odd that anyone brings up "no choices" and "lack of customisation" as a point against GNOME at all... Nothing in any desktop environment comes close to the versatility of GNOME extensions.
finally someone says it.
the extensions might not be core utilities of gnome and break on an update, but they allow for customization that even kde doesn't provide yet everyone is saying gnome has a "lack of customization"
Pip yay
Ugh, "gimp"? Seriously?
And the name isn't great either.
GNU Image Manipulation Program or GIMP
Green is my pepper.
You're right. And it would be so simple to just drop the G and make it Image Manipulation Program. They could even use the same impish logo!
Good way to get Stallman to kill you
They could, but they never will though. Chiefly because someone asked them to and, after stamping their feet like Veruca Salt, the devs have resolved to never ever stop pouting about it.
Someone could fork it, with just a different name. 😆
I’ve found the clitoris.
You might wanna tell the guy who made it, cause I don't think he has yet.
Gonna make a TUI music player and call it D-Bussy
Aah D-Bussy! Everyone loves D-Bussy!
KDE's tool to configure an IntelliPoint™ device.
Its called a cat-tongue. Everyone that refers to it as anything else is wrong
You mean ClitMouse
I've never heard the left 2 ones used IRL tbh
I have but I'm old and clearly remember when it came out.
I used to call it the pointing nipple
It's the Command Nubbin'
Hey, I finger the klitoris of my thinkpad all the time
Huh, I thought I was fingering the nipple this whole time
It's pink, nubby, and you finger it. That doesn't seem like a nipple to me ;)
Okay, fineeee. I'll tongue it.
Can't find the app guys. Where is it? Bruh. Help me someone, my girlfriend is coming home and I don't want to get mocked for the same thing two days in a row.
Its not an app, your file system wouldn't work without it.
I only use it with Linux read by Gilbert Gottfried
the mascot is klitreya who has one too many K shaped appendages kinda like the kde lizard
i think PCSX2 is the maddest i’ve ever been over a name. i’ve been using it for YEARS and have to double check the spelling every single time i type it.
Don't recall if it had a Linux port, but anyone remembers Nesticle?
I remember the grainy low bit icon of a testicle on Windows.
Followed by the tastefully named Snesticle
i was familiar with zophar's domain, yes.
edit wait fuck. sleep will help with reading comprehension, yes.
RPCS3 is similarly awkward to read and spell.
And ncmpcpp, which makes sense as it's about 2 or 3 different forks from the original so the name got increasingly out of hand.
And ncmpcpp, which makes sense as it’s about 2 or 3 different forks from the original so the name got increasingly out of hand.
Ah yes the ncm<TAB> program. Used to give my brain half a stroke trying to remember the full name.
You mean RCPSX3? Or 4, the scam?
What happened with 4? I didn't even know it existed until just now.
It doesn't exist. Well, PCSX4 doesn't, RPCS4 was a private project some years ago:
RPCS4 was a private project being worked on by one of the original developers of RPCS3, DH. Little is known about the project at the time, but we do know that it was expected to run on Unix-likes and can boot PS4 games without graphics
https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/PlayStation_4_emulators footnote 2
PCSX4 was just malware/adware or similar if I recall correctly. It came into being long before PS4 emulation reached anything remotely resembling the concept of "playable".
I hear you. The one that always gets me is PPSSPP. Every time I type it I miss out a letter and have to go back and fix it.
Is that a command to summon the cats? PPSSPP PPSSPP
I memorized it as "PSP, but doubled"
Somehow, I perfectly remember ncmpcpp (what does any of that even mean? something with C++ I guess?) but struggle with lighttpd (light+httd+daemon).
NCurses, Media Player Client, c Plus Plus
I keep searching "RPCS2" and wondering why it doesn't show up
seems easy to remember for me
dyslexia may be a factor
Yeah, its a fun one, but it does have a logical reason.
PSX was the codename for the PS1, and what the internet community latched on to, especially after the PS2 came out and there needed to be clarity on which they were referring to.
One of the early PSX PC emulators decided to name themselves PCSX as an amalgamation of PC and PSX.
PCSX2's team wanted to make a PS2 emulator on par with/inspired by (and maybe forked off of?) the PS1 emulator and decided to continue the naming convention.
And now we have the dislexia-unfriendly PCSX2 name.
ah dammit, that’s actually compelling reasoning! lmao
Y'all remember the PSX emu Bleem! ? You could buy it commercially as a physical disk from the shelves of a store? I have no idea how they got away with it but that seems unthinkable these days.
I feel like, based on the interface, they just took PCSX, swapped the splash screen, and somehow distributed it commercially, along with even running TV ads. They must've been sued into oblivion by Sony.
Personally, I wasn't allowed to own a computer until well after Bleem! went out of business (from running out of money for legal defence against sony).
That being said, looking at wikipedia, Bleem! started first, so PCSX was the one that stole the look and feel of Bleem!
Wow that's news to me.
PC sex too. That's how I read it.
I didn't even know people read it. My eyes just glazed over the letters like it's a picture lol.
Then it should PCPSX or PSXPC, but the PCSX trips me up so hard. I hate it so much
Maybe, but it is meant as a portmanteau, and not just two abbreviations stuck together.
Like... if the National Aeronautics and Space Administration made a big light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation device, and decided to call it the NASER instead of NASALASER.
happens
KDE FTW.
I can never find that program...
does anyone have the repo? I can't find it
Inquiring minds must know
The kernel library for integrating telecommunications operations and their requirements into the system? I think there was a patch for that in my update manager last week.
(With thanks to Red Dwarf for providing a template for this one.)
Probably the correct location most people would use that app.
