Pic needs a Glock 19

Casio for calculator but Hamilton for watch??

I'd expect a Debian fanatic to have a Casio watch as well!

I'm in this image and I feel good about it, the manual transmission, the PS2 (although I did pick up a ps5 recently to play gta 6), the analogue watch, the leather wallet, I don't have a discman, but I do have an MP3 player, the seperate audio system with a turnable, the zippo lighter, and a classic scientific calculator. All things I use frequently.

And yes I use Debian stable

Hey, those old school Craftsman ratchets and wrenches last forever. My dad bought a set in the 70s, he died in 2023 and they were one of the things I kept in the aftermath and they are way better than the ones I have bought for myself over the years that are much newer.

My advice to anyone these days is if you want it to last get the version of that thing that was being sold in the 1950s-1970s. Maybe the 80's/90's depending on what it is. If it was made in the last 20 years it is almost always made to be thrown away in a decade or less.

Older doesn't necessarily mean worse. Dependability is important for sure.

Judging by this posi I should probably start using Debian stable

Is that tire pressure gauge archaic? It's handy & effective & requires no electricity. I keep one in my glove box.

I feel targeted by this. Also how did you get into my house?

"I'm in this picture and it's quite OK here."

My car is a 20 year old shitbox, my bike gets new brake pads and a bit of random lubricant on the chain once a year and other "maintenance" only when parts fall off, and my stereo is a mix of hand me downs from my dad's college days and some eBay home theatre stuff that got sold because it didn't support the newest HDMI bullshit.

Oh, and of course it is a Thinkpad, thanks for asking.

Just the other day, a friend of mine running Arch tried to install something, which resulted in him having to do a full system update, including fixing several "that should not happen" s. Meanwhile, every few years I spend an evening update to the newest stable, and never had bigger issues than the color of some icon being unfamiliar.

Where’s your 25 year old leather belt that has wear marks near every hole? Documenting your progression into middle age like tree rings.

Debian Sid?

I went from cutting edge tech excited nerd to literally this picture, and life is better.

Hey that's my dad's stuff, give it back!

What the fuck? Who's been taking pictures of my stuff?

The Debian Stable lifestyle is appealing to me more and more every day now

If somebody can still fully operate with this stuff, I'm jealous.

It means they've figured it out and they're immune to almost all of the bullshit.

There's bound to be some bridge, somewhere, but even then, that only needs to be minimal. These people are heroes and have a special power.

I drive an older model manual transmission acura and use a 1980s style programmable thermostat with no smart features or connectivity. Use Debian stable with KDE. Checks out

I’m in this picture and quite frankly it’s a great place to be. Everything either just works, I know how to fix it, or I at least know what is broken and not worth fixing.

Though that is a terrible style of air pressure gauge. Get a good dial one with the tube.

I do use Debian stable and I do still use a calculator like that and a wallet I repaired many times.

If they're still working just fine, why replace them?
