Use linux, come out as trans. (At least I did)
idk why this got downvoted, ur probably very cute :3
I really don’t get these posts common on Lemmy. How common is this? Where did the high socks Linux joke come from?
its not a joke, its real :3 (for me at least)
What got you into them both?
no clue tbh, probably a coincidence
There was a post on a similar subject not too long ago, and it seems the landscape shifted about 10 years ago. A whole load of alt-lifestyle folks got into Linux and sysadmin, and maybe a few previously straight-laced sysadmins came out as alt too.
Vive les différences
You mean the programming socks?
This is the second post with Unix and socks on my feed in the past few minutes.
There was a post about software and socks a few weeks or so ago where I replied about a company called functional software that made functional socks which I wore for years, which come to think about it also started a discussion about functional programming.
Anyway, here’s a community where the socks seem to be coming from.
uwunix
For anyone wondering what distro that is:
It’s Nyarch Linux https://nyarchlinux.moe/
no it ain’t😭
Whaaaaaat?!! 😆
You’re the boss, applesauce! ❤️
Idk if this is true, but i heard you can be born female ; and still use linux
I like how the Linux user stereotype has changed from “greasy neckbeard” to “femboy”.
This joke is sadly becoming a common perception. Lots of furries and femboys ruining the perception of FOSS and cybersec because they feel the need to push their lifestyle into total synthesis with their career and other hobbies.
I just hope that if Linux ever becomes mainstream or close to it, us reasonable users won’t get clumped in with either community.
The FOSS community doesn’t need this kind of mentality. “Us reasonable users” really tells what you think about people with different lifestyles to your own. Quit being weird and fracturing the FOSS community. The Corpos don’t need the help
Free as in freedom, not only free as in beer. That is how FOSS works. Also one of the things I find appealing about it.
By focusing on FOSS being this super serious thing, we kinda lose what is great about it. Everyone is welcome and free to use it as they see fit. That is by design (see licenses). A lot of FOSS is passion projects by people on their spare time, they do it because it is fun / fulfilling. We need all hands on deck, and FOSS should also be playful, experimental, and novel. FOSS is this super idealistic gift to humanity, from humanity. Every piece of FOSS software contributes to the collective human database of ideas and software.
The “us reasonable users” is a really unfortunate way of sharing your opinion on this matter. Is it unreasonable to be a femboy and use FOSS/Linux? By being elitist like this, I kinda get the same reaction you claim to get from this user. I don’t want to be clumped in with the users that feel they are superior to everyone else and acting like it, and gatekeeping the FOSS community and its representation.
You’re not better anyone for not wearing the cute socks bozo. Linux femboys and furries are smart people who are probably more accepting and “reasonable” than you are
Bold of you to assume that Linux is not mainstream. Most servers run Linux, most phones run Linux, it’s only your work PC that still runs Windows, and it increasingly becomes an isolated bubble of old white corporate dudes who keep buying Windows PCs because that’s what they used for twenty years to run their spreadsheets.
Linux is becoming mainstream, the other two big OS happen to be closed-source and based in a country which is now becoming a dictatorship bent on declaring war on everyone. If you’re in the EU or in China and you’re still using Windows right now, you might want to be concerned about your security even if you’re just a normal end user. It is widely known Microsoft mine users’ data - and when it comes to that, Trump has been blowing up the EU-US Data Deal. Government agencies and companies all over EU are now scrambling to switch to EU-based cloud providers and other IT solutions. It’s no joke: https://noyb.eu/en/us-cloud-soon-illegal-trump-punches-first-hole-eu-us-data-deal
All these replies are extremely indicative of just how utterly ridiculous the Fediverse can be. It almost makes me want to leave again but no: this network needs opposing opinions from its “acceptable” narrative. It’s bad enough that the Fediverse is already an echo chamber as it is.
Only happens when you use Arch.
EndevorOS is a slippery slope
Which theme is it? I cannot find good Win7 Aero themes.
Oh, you will love this then:
