No tearing support discussions for me

When you're asked if you prefer x11 or Wayland, but you like titties.
- Tiv will handle that on the tty just fine.
  
  "Fine" being (arguably) marginally better than attempting to decipher a scrambled cable channel that could be either the softcore channel or a travel documentary - either way, you're looking at something that rhymes with "complicating crank".

My wife complains about not being able to hear the TV over the teletype, but I keep telling her it's the only way to get the true user experience.
- I should really upgrade to 300 baud. These posts are taking forever to read.
- I also want to have a clicky mechanical keyboard! /s
  
  And a clicky mechanical display!

Also, I've got like 9 of them. So that's 9 times better.

Headless + ssh

I'm more of a fbdev guy.
- I mean... yeah? Its actually hardware accelerated too, and mpv can play videos directly on it

Bash bash tty tty, bash-n-tty
- Hey!

XWayland
- Valve be like: Jo we make like a wayland compositor, ya'now?, and it will be like super performance oriented for games 'n stuff, ya'now?, and have dis super bleedin' edge hdr pipeline, ya'now?, and then it will only support xwayland, ya'now?, dude why ya leavin'?

Just use Wayland with XWayland
- i use a x11 desktop under wayland using xwayland

Noob, I teared a hole in the fabric of reality and plugged it into my head. I interface with my thoughts and the results are read to me by voices in my head.

$ cage foot
- For those who don't understand: cage is a kiosk wayland window manager, which means it only runs one program in the foreground and in fullscreen.
  foot is a graphical terminal emulator.
  So the joke here is to run a terminal emulator in fullscreen and kiosk mode on a wayland wm from tty, which, at first sight, looks exactly the same as just tty. So you use wayland for a lookalike tty session, which is a nod at OP's image which states you wouldn't run a tty on x or wayland.
  (But cage+foot has mouse support, nice fonts, can launch graphical programs, etc., and has itself established as a kind of rescue shell for tty-less kernel distributions)
- watches wayland have a stroke on a kiosk
  
  I am not sure I understand. Are you having problems running cage?

I use wsl just to log in and run update/upgrade whenever I get the itch.
Anyone remember the rackspace raids in mid-00s? I called and explained to them our ircd operator was in iraq and got services set back up.

The best way to interact with a Linux machine is ssh through powershell. Hate me all you want, but it's kinda a self-own to imply that savvy Linux users don't bother with the desktop.
- PowerShell isn't the best way to anything except a migraine
  
  *PowersHell
  As the joke goes
- woosh
