Use Solaris. You can't have mental health issues if your brain is on the wall.

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I remember solaris. It's not Linux, but it's definitely posix compliant.

It's not even over when you switch to Linux as I found out.

"You're not using Arch? What's wrong with you?"

"Mint is for idiots who don't understand Linux."

Etc.

Okey but consider this. FreeBSD.

Linux has helped me rediscover my love for computers. And the many small and larger hobby projects I can now embark on because of it do in fact help with my mental health.

[–] ThunderLegend@sh.itjust.works 7 points 8 hours ago

Same for me..I'm a totally different person because I found Linux..If I had found it earlier maybe I would pursuit an IT career but I'm still glad to have a hobby that fulfill my hunger for knowledge and I have a lot of fun tinkering and playing with Linux

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 71 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago) (2 children)

I used to be all fucked up on drugs, now I am all fucked up on Linux.

Hooked on Linux worked for me!

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 10 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Haven't got time to do drugs now that I'm using Arch.

Psst... Have you heard of Rust yet?

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 6 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

I have nightmares where the borrow checker is shouting at me incomprehensibly about the literal bugs and I shoot them with the clone laser and the borrow checker stops shouting for ten seconds, but now there are two bugs for each original bug and Tim Berners Lee floats by saying it's not very idiomatic and I shouldn't expect to get to work on time if I just keep stopping along the journey to spend all my time cloning the bugs.

Thank you good sir for the genuine laugh

[–] BonerMan@ani.social 30 points 13 hours ago

It would help though

[–] superkret@feddit.org 48 points 15 hours ago

I googled my symptoms and it says here I have "compatibility issues".

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 36 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

It's useful if your mental health issues are caused by Microsoft. For example, if I ever have to go through another license audit, I may have a psychotic break.

[–] ConsistentAlgae@reddthat.com 5 points 8 hours ago

You put it out in the universe. You’re doomed to go through another one!

(I’ve been in IT for 10 years, I don’t wish this on my worst enemy, sorry for your luck.)

You paid for your windows license?

shocking: users of open-source reddit alternative like open-source things

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 25 points 12 hours ago (4 children)

There's a fine line between liking something, and obsessing over it to the point you're evangelizing strangers against their wishes.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

You mean the people commenting on the Linux communities?

Not much "against their wishes" if they keep looking there.

[–] OpenStars@discuss.online 6 points 8 hours ago

evangelizing? Evangelizing!? EVANGELIZING!?!?!?!

Yeah that's fair, carry on.:-)

[–] bluewing@lemm.ee 4 points 9 hours ago

Every church needs their evangelists and missionaries. And the Church of Tux is no different or better than the churches that have gone before.

It's a people thing.

I increased my antidepressants due to ArchLinux

[–] leisesprecher@feddit.org 39 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I use Xanax, BTW.

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 34 points 16 hours ago

ngl it sounds like a distro

[–] Roflmasterbigpimp@lemmy.world 18 points 15 hours ago

I once had trouble with my arches.....

They recommended Debian.

[–] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 198 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago) (20 children)

Yes! then you can have other mental health problems to distract from your existing ones.

For best results, try Gentoo.

[–] Damage@feddit.it 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Frustration is not a mental problem, it's a perfectly normal response

[–] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 2 points 5 hours ago

Uh huh, uh huh, and what about obsessiveness?

[–] uis@lemm.ee 3 points 8 hours ago

Gentoo is for everypony!

You know how people always tell depressed people to exercise because it actually works in a lot of cases?
