- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content

sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
- Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
4. No recent reposts

E + Sandals must be openSuSe.
And Slackware is no clothes at all.
Gentoo is a loom.
LFS is the location of a bag of cotton and carding instructions.
You do not want to see an old-school greybeard dressing like this.
You might think you do when you first imagine the concept, but no, you really don't.
Source: Am at the very least greybeard adjacent.
That's funny because seeing that meme, I thought how interesting it was that the "hardcoreness" of a Linux user went from being measured by the length of the greybeard to the height of the programming socks.
Although, I guess back then, the distros mentioned would probably have been revolving around Gentoo, void, slackware, and Linux from scratch. So I suppose greybeards don't necessarily need the high socks.
Damn shame if you ask me.
Upvoted, for being the only one to mention
void
so far.
:)
I mean, if your beliefs in the unix philosophy are still strong enough to do away with the convenience that is (or can be...) systemd, you deserve some respect.
runit is niiiiiice.

I am happy with my system and won't distrohop again, I am happy with my system and won't distrohop again, I am happy with my system and won't distrohop again...
You don't want <300mb ram usage with sound+network+swaywm+dillo?
I use Arch btw
love ur keyboard :D
Why does the mouse look like it had blot flies breed apon it?
I like to breed things okay
I think that's to prevent sweaty hands by allowing air to flow through the mouse and past your hand.
I'm a mint guy and cis, but I wear my socks at more of an ubuntu level. Is it because I also like functional programming?
Shout out to all the cool trans geeks, though.
why did i have to go over to nix >w<
Bazzite/SteamOS:
And your DE determines the skirt skirtness?
fedora, debian and arch linux user here, and no, as a man, I ain't rocking thigh-high socks, but if I was a woman, hell yeah I would.
as a man, I ain't rocking thigh-high socks
Is this because you actively choose to not wear them as a man, or because society will try to make you feel wrong for doing it?
If the latter, then fuck everyone else.
It has just never occurred to me that what I need while surfing the arch wiki at 3am are some thigh high socks.
So yeah, it's me not society. Society can go fuck itself though, and if I had to wear them in solidarity with my linux fam, I probably would, just not as a regular thing.
(and i have some hairy legs, I refuse to shave them so I don't imagine them looking that great on me either ahah)
That's the neat part, you don't have to be a woman to rock them.
I was under the impression the programmer socks were compulsory for anything requiring you to compile your own kernel
my nixOS didn't come with thigh highs
they're available separately
you can install them from a package manager such as Amazon
oh actually my bad, i figured out how to do it declaratively
configuration.nix
{
pkgs,
config,
lib,
...
}: {
# ...
thigh-highs.enable = true;
# ...
}
Debian (forced) user here, can confirm
Guix
