  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.

    EDIT: I'm picking up on some big time virgin energy from all the people in this thread who think girlsmell is a fetish. Girls smell. If you didn't know that, it's clear the only women you've ever been with were 2D.

    PS: If you prefer boysmell that is also very valid, and if you don't like stinky partners at all I want you to know I stand with the ace community and I'm only meaning to make fun of allos.

    As an engineer who's worked exclusively with Linux for 25 years this meme makes me want to buy a windows license.

    All hail Xenia.

    This meme just threatened to undo the last 3 years of daily driving linux, by making me consider going back to windows

    [–] Ziglin@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

    Why? So you can experience win10 for a few months?

    [–] highball@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

    lol, 25+ years for me. Fortunately it looks like I just have to avoid certain distros. Hopefully mental-illness will go out of vogue soon, so we can move past all this garbage and get back to computing.

    [–] bishbosh@lemm.ee 9 points 1 day ago

    Sounds like weakness to me comrade.

    [–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 6 points 2 days ago

    Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

    [–] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    I think I'm hopping to TempleOS. It's going to take more than Windows to save me from this.

    [–] highball@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

    I might be there with you. Going to try avoiding the distros that attract the mental-illness crowd first. Maybe I have to go back to Slackware.

    [–] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

    Well, TempleOS was made by a guy with schizophrenia so it won't help in that regard.

    [–] highball@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

    I'm sure the OS doesn't have schizophrenia.

    I really like the fact that the Lemmy community includes a whole swathe of trans folk, I learned some new stuff the safe way and that's really REALLY valuable to me.

    I also really like the freedom that using Lemmy for social media empowers us with. Freedom of OS, Porn, whatever.

    I can respect almost all kinks, ofc there's bound to be a couple I don't understand but that's not a problem for me, if every participant consented.

    I dislike furry kink, it invokes a feeling of disgust in me. This post alienates me slightly from the Linux community. Not a problem, but it did make me realize I would want to be more careful linking my kinks to my favorite Tools/Software in the future in a global media setting.

    2025 Is my Linux year. Last year I tried as well, but I hardly boot to Linux today. Before the year is over, Windows will OS non grata here. Except on my Surface maybe πŸ€”

    "Fellas, is it a fetish to like girls?"

    [–] Sneptaur@pawb.social 5 points 1 day ago

    I wouldn't worry too much about the furry stuff. People aren't going to be pushy about it, but you will see Xenia here occasionally. Just consider her like a mascot and all is well :-)

    [–] nope@jlai.lu 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    It is not a kink. It's a hobby. For the vast majority, at least.

    [–] Sneptaur@pawb.social 3 points 1 day ago

    I'd argue for the vast majority it's both things.

    [–] spicehoarder@lemm.ee 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    From what I've seen while Linux support is okay for the Surface line, it's just not there yet to make sense as an "upgrade" power management and wireless still need some work if I recall correctly.

    [–] Chee_Koala@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

    Oh, very nice, thanks for the heads-up. I might try now! Do you know of any foss app that could replace whiteboard? I don't like the MS ecosystem, but using the pen in whiteboard is pretty transformative use for me. I could ditch it but I would miss it.

    XENIA MENTIONED RAHHHH

    [–] Novamdomum@fedia.io 30 points 3 days ago (2 children)

    I remember it so clearly man... The morning of October 15 2025, a Wednesday as I recall. People were warned but they didn't listen. They don't ever listen.

    I'll never forget the screaming. Millions of Windows 10 computers just spontaneously exploding all over the place. Women, children and men with beards running down the streets of every city just trying to avoid the thousands of computers being thrown from the tops of buildings. The world was never the same after that. I found an abandoned bus in the chaos so I tried to save as many people as I could. We rode into the night towards the hills. Away from the cities and the looting and chaos.

    Or you know... it just means no updates and we'll all probably be fine.

    Or you know... it just means no updates and we'll all probably be fine.

    Dude, I would be hesitant to use an OS more than a month after EOL. I hope you realize that your OS no longer receiving security updates is a really, really, really bad thing. People staying on Win10 instead of upgrading to Linux or macOS or downgrading to Win11 is going to be zero day heaven.

    [–] Novamdomum@fedia.io 27 points 3 days ago (1 children)

    I remember even TheTechnician27 tried to warn us "it's going to be zero day heaven!" they said but everyone just shrugged and now here I am with my fellow refugees in the woods trying to catch some squirrels for my dinner.

    trying to catch some squirrels for my dinner.

    Excuse me? 🀨

    [–] HK65@sopuli.xyz 6 points 2 days ago

    You need a squirrel army to start the uprising to eat the rich, obviously

    [–] lattrommi@lemmy.ml 10 points 3 days ago

    I'm sure they mean an elegant dinner party to honor them and not eating your extended family as a light snack before bedtime.

    Starts handing out the complementary cat ears, miniskirt, and programming socks to incoming Windoze users.

    [–] ICastFist@programming.dev 9 points 2 days ago

    If that's your point, I counter it with AROS

    Debian ahoy!

    I've bΓ©en using mint for almost a year, wheres my girl that stinks good? :(

    Oh no! Linux transed my gender! Again! (I'm agender but that wouldn't be as funny)
