Marxist/Leninist hardliners is funny to me because FOSS kind of set me on the path to become a socialist. (Although I'm a libertarian not a ML)

- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content

sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts

MODERATORS
People who think the idiom is "how x looks like" rather than "what x looks like", which is more correct.
I don't know where "π³οΈββ§οΈ" is, but all the girls from there are hot.
Linux users: people think about us
People: I wonder what's for dinner

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.
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 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

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.

No socks?
I think the abundance of trans women (β women who were raised as boys) is proof the social conditioning the only factor in why there aren't more women in STEM fields. Women love this shit just as much as men, but they're actively steered away from it.
(Yes, women face other challenges beyond lack of exposure, but I think all of them can be traced back to social factors as well, such as how men are conditioned to treat women.)
Broke my heart when my daughter at age 9 or 10 said one day that science was for boys. She went to a very progressive elementary school, I'm a software dev, and have no idea where that came from.

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.

This is mostly true, especially in communities like this. I do know a couple of guys who are the complete opposite politically - ultra conservative Christians. But when they need forum support and encounter this part of the community it just makes them stronger in their opinion that the world needs Jesus.
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.

I love the fact that "Ninja Cat" was used as a mascot for Windows 10 Insiders back in the day. Makes the meme even better to me.
