I might be more column B, I gzess.
Same for old Dell, the $2000 laptop can be grabbed at $300 after 3 years, this is really cool. I installed Linux on mine too of course.
uwu
I have more in common with the guy on the left but I love and support the people on the right
I read people on the tight 🤭
All about that bussy
They support you too… And the whole internet infrastructure!

You Linux users sure are a contentious people.
You’ve just made an enemy for life!

We’re all friends, until someone mentions systemd, or Rust, or Wayland. Then the gamemode switches to PVP.

I hate it when my gender takes ages to compile, but I’m running a slow CPU
Unfortunately the solution is to use a binary package for your gender, which puts you in one of a few common configurations, rather than letting you customize.
“plural inside”
Multi-CPU systems be like.
It’s giving “I Saw The Thinkpad Glow”
I’ve reached the acceptance stage of possibly being a pariah in the community for not wanting to wear the socks.
I’m also a cis-gendered heterosexual married male, so I guess that tracks.
ok but have you tried the long socks? they’re comfortable. also you can get manly hockey player style ones
I used to play ice hockey as a preteen/teen, so I’ve worn 'em in that context.
As far as the fem-boy/“girly” ones, I’m just not into it. Any socks above mid-achilles tendon make me itch. I have hairy legs.
what about striped ankle socks 😂
Well! My wife is Dutch and she bought me a pair of Dutch HappySocks™ with stripes a few birthdays ago.
those are awesome and they definitely count as programming socks 11/10
Wtf does trans have to do with anything?

What does Arch have to do with anything?
What do computers have to do with it anyway?
I’ve wondered that myself, but I’ve come to the conclusion that transgender individuals seem to value their privacy more than the average person. This is all due to increased cyber bullying to them online. Linux is well known for being free from data collection (except Ubuntu) and corporate greed, so it would make sense if this was an operating system of choice.
No clue. I guess they are the type that likes to have things overly complicated.
It is (at this point) an old meme.

It is similar to this meme too.
and yet, both are men
And the same person.
Fuck off, transphobe
Ooooo edgy
You must win so hard at life
Yucky
What? Windows XP was awesome!
Now I just gotta replace my battery so it can be a laptop again!
The replacement battery you bought in 2017 was the last of the genuine stock for that 2012 Thinkpad model. Now it’s only poor quality aftermarket. Maybe just stick with the existing genuine battery – its 47 second runtime should be enough time for AC loss to trigger a custom script to make it hibernate.
You can get lucky, some of the aftermarket stuff works
Fr tho that Arch setup looks clean, I like it
I’m cis and not into anime tho
My company just went under and let us keep our laptops, day after they wiped it I got Ubuntu on it. So I’m a little bit of column A, little bit of column B!
Dont have the socks yet huh?
Programming socks.
Ugh. I hope the current owner has new keycaps for all the sock colors because matching socks + keyboard is cool, but well… when you change your socks that goes out the window
Judging by that picture, I think they’re all in on that color scheme and likely just bought multiple pairs of the same socks.
That’s baller
Redundant socks is essential for this setup.
Look, I have a suggestion that will change your life. You can never live another way again.
Go buy 10-20 pairs of socks, all same. When you get a hole in one sock, you only throw away the one sock. You never have to worry about mixing and matching. If you’ve got two socks, they count as a pair.
I’m not even matching my keycaps to socks, nor wearing anything special, I just found a specific pair of socks I liked and I’ve bought heaps over the years.
