Coming on Lemmy and complaining because there are too many Linux users is like going in to a brothel and complaining that there are too many hookers (lemmy.ml)

Speaking of, I recently switched to Linux, do the thigh high socks just show up or do I have to order them myself?

You have to find the shop and pay some gold, but when you equip them you get +2 programming and can be combined with BLÅHAJ for +2 gender euphoria.

You unlock them once you enter your 10,000th terminal command.

You need to be a naughty slut that deserves a spanking for that to appear.

You get a choice of free maid/nurse/lab assistant outfit as well.

Yep, as written in the manuscript:
"Stallman's Sluts and Torvalds' Thots,
shall all receive some thigh-high socks."

Frankly, I don't have a problem with anyone who uses linux, I do too. I just get tired of the same stupid circlejerks that paint it as some kind of perfect alternative to existing mainstays. I like it, you like it, Lemmy is a deeply nerdy subsect of diehard FOSS ideologies and the power of the personal computer. But dear god is it kind of insufferable at times when it's preaching to converts, and I imagine even less pleasant for those who just don't have a desire to care.

what's so bad about linux

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

How so? I don't see the analogy.

Yeah, who knew an open source platform would be used by open source enthusiasts?

It's more like going to a hotel, complaining that there are too many prostitutes, and then finding out it's a brothel.

They're escorts. They're only hookers when they're dead.

Hey! Hookers are street working girls.

You find whores at brothels.
