Not pictured: elitist chuds that are really angry about the trans and furry community, and think Linux and other open source communities were ruined by code of conducts.
They are unwelcome, and we troll and downvote them every time
I’ll never forget dialling into a work meeting with the corporate infosec team who we needed some guidance from.
Their rep shows up and it’s a fem-presenting person with pink cat-ear headphones.
I’m like oh fuck they sent the big guns, this is exactly who we needed to talk to. And I was right, we got exactly what we needed.
Was she wearing cargo pants? Did she have a subway map poster on her wall?
The old adage “The worst-dressed nerd in the meeting is the most important one” could use some updating for the modern era to include trans folks with really good fits…
I read that last word wrong a few times
We also appreciate those. But not actively, at least not while in a professional setting. That’d be rude.
A cat explains DNS…
Does Linux cause some amount of autism or is it the other way around? Nah, nevermind. It works and most other things in my life don’t.
It’s weird to think that Linux causes Autism, rather than to believe that Autism caused Linux.
Chicken or the egg, though.
It’s the egg. Eggs predate chickens.
You heard it here first folks! That ends the age-old argument.
on this subject… I’ve been using linux for like…7ish years now?
when do I get my choker and stockings? Do I have to fill out a form or…?
You have to telnet in and add your name to the list
They don’t want you to know, but you can actually buy that stuff without being invited to their secret club
They should have been mailed by now… I’ll check on it!
No form, just whisper ‘sudo apt-get install femboy-starter-kit’ into the void and they will arrive within 24 hours
Void? The distro?
I don’t know where “🏳️⚧️” is, but all the girls from there are hot.
The guys from that place are pretty af too!
And don’t get me started on the its, theys, and etcetera. The weird ones are so cool~
100%
Honestly everyone hot.
Transylvania
Unfortunately, there are only like 3 trans women in Transylvania due to changing genders being “discouraged” there
Transnistria may have better trans rights, but its still terrible
Transexual Transylvania, on the other hand…
Weird corner of the userbase you submerged yourself in
Most people I come across just wanted a phone that wasn’t made by Apple
Linux users: people think about us
People: I wonder what’s for dinner
Conclusion: Windows, Mac and BSD users are cannibals
SOYLENT LINUX IS PEOPLE!
My ship sails in the morning
I would argue that’s the cool part. You also have the average hyper racist neo-reactionary Suckless fossid user who thinks daring to write in anything other than C is “gay” or smth.
I had a discussion with someone who was of the belief that anyone that doesn’t build their own packages and reads the documentation is a lazy retard that doesn’t know what they’re installing on their computer.
That was a fun conversation
I assume they were a Gentoo user?
Oi bruv don’t shoot strays at us
Gentoo have both sides, the cool community and the suckless community xD You can check it in the telegram groups about gentoo
Or nix. I don’t know what’s worse.
Spot on, you have similar experiences?
Nope. Just that your description fits Gentoo XD
It was such a weird conversation. He couldn’t imagine people not being interested in how a computer works and wanting to configure everything.
As a gay trans man, looking down on people who code in anything other than C is my toxic masculinity. Don’t let reactionaries take it away from me.
You’re not a real man if you use an IDE. Vim and gcc were good enough for the founding fathers (D & R), they’re good enough for me.
real men write their code one bit at a time with a laser pointer and a fiber optic network cable
Or you could just use zig which is better at compiling C than C (the second it supports the espressif chips I’m never touching C again)
Once you incorporate networking, you’ve lost me. I’d rather implement ed on a billion NAND chips. Soldering is enjoyable and physical; networking gives me aneurysms.
BGP isnt just Turing complete, It’s Cthulhu complete
I use an IDE… guess I’m not a real man anymore 🏳️⚧️

I believe in your right to access gender affirming care (installing netbeans)
Now I’m picturing a anthro spider with paws sitting on their net.
(Netbeans)
What did Suckless ever do to you ??😅
What does suckless have to do with that?
I don’t think suckless is full of silicon tower elitists glorifying a dead programming language, the joke wasn’t for you.
C
dead
Behold, my Opiniondiscardinator 9001!
🤣 it hath bean beeholden !
As a dark-hooded sweater guy, I’m feeling personally insulted.
Yeah but are you also wearing stockings?
No sorry.
Apology acceptance nondenied. Please wait while our team of experts review your bash history before finalizing our decision.
You’re valid!
I am contributing to the “trans girls everywhere for some reason”
Furry sysadmin here, also trans but not a girl =D
People who think the idiom is “how x looks like” rather than “what x looks like”, which is more correct.
Software from the 80’s? Get that new fangled garbage outta here. If it doesn’t predate the first Alien movie it’s probably full of bugs.
Is there actually pre-1979 software I am using that I probably didn’t know about?
As far as I’m aware, a lot of the core utilities originate back some time ago, stuff like ls, CD, chmod/chown, cat, sed, awk etc.
Now the question is, is a piece of software that’s been maintained or ported since the 70s considered pre 79 software?
Unless you’re running BSD or some other genetic Unix probably not as everything GNU is newer than that. GNU is 80s, original Unix 70s, in the 60s you still have giant minicomputers with very little standardisation, including ISA, and before the 60s there were not even compilers.
A decent chunk of software traces lineage back to then, even if the old code has been retired:
viis the screen terminal mode ofexwith is a more featurefuledwhich got most of its features fromqedwhich is 60s software. Cutting-edge: You didn’t have to punch holes any more, you had a keyboard and a printer. Someone figure out whereddhas its argument syntax from so we know whom to blame.The program
dd(data duplicator/disk destroyer) is named after the DD (data definition) command in IBM’s Job Control Language. The syntax forddis also based on IBM JCL.Dunno where CP/M got it from but PIP and REN use DEST.EXT=SRC.EXT, so that arg style dates back to then at least.
Also, CP/M 2.2’s ED is great, it’s my daily driver editor on my RC2014.
E: Wow, I really can’t type.
Every sentence also ends in a :3

No socks?
