Ricing Memes

Ah, the existential crisis of a Linux user who can no longer feel superior because distros are actually usable now. What's the point of spending 47 hours configuring your desktop environment if normies can just install Ubuntu and have it work? "Ricing" (obsessively customizing every pixel of your Linux setup) used to be a badge of honor—proof you'd suffered appropriately for your technological enlightenment. Now these people just click "install" and get a functioning computer? The audacity. It's like training for years to climb Mount Everest only to discover they've installed an escalator.
