I'm not stuck in time. I've embraced dependability.

I feel personally attacked

Hamilton watches are pretty fucking nice though.

[–] spicytuna62@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I do have a mechanical Hamilton Khaki field watch. I love it. They're not cheap, but it's such a nice watch. My wife bought it for my for my 30th birthday because I'd been telling her for years that I'd wanted one. Given the expense, I only wear it for occasions like family get-togethers or dinner dates.

So this is my daily driver.

Been ticking for over 10 years without issue now. I just replaced the band because the old leather band did finally give up the ghost. Other than that, this has also been a great watch.

I don't think you can just drop that you own a Field Khaki without paying the tax (meaning: pics).

[–] BurntWits@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago

Yeah I was gonna say the same thing. I have a Khaki King II and it’s excellent. The Khaki Field in the picture is also great, I want to get one.

I still keep my hp-42s calculator nearby

[–] fritobugger2017@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

I still have a working HP-41C in my desk at the office.

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

Yes, I use Debian stable. Oh, you need to borrow my pen?

[–] Echolynx@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 days ago

Well, guess I've gotta try Debian...

[–] mhzawadi@lemmy.horwood.cloud 2 points 3 days ago

I use Debian as my homelab OS, have done for years. But I don't have anything in that picture, I'm still to young?

Mind you, 1983 is old

[–] dismay3915@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

[–] auzy1@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

There is something nostalgic about Gnome 1/2. i do miss them

[–] Randelung@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

But apparently from a time when it came exclusively as a CD.

This is so dumb it is tiring...

I'm using Debian stable on my desktop but I also play games, AAA to indie, with the latest gadgets, e.g. Steam Controller or even VR headsets. I also control my house with IoT with single keypresses on my mechanical keyboard which has its own touchpach (no mouse) with individual RGB key. I have a more modern setup than most but I still stick to a stable distribution because one can have both, you just have to buy devices that respect your agency by relying on well supported and/or open protocols, e.g. BT or Zigbee.

PS: I get that it's humor, don't "explain" it to me. I also have a fixie bike because I got tired of trying to fix my proprietary e-bike so yes I can also feed the trope (in the sense of going "back" to older technologies outside the computer) but unfortunately beyond it is important that people understand it is actually incorrect.

TL;DR: tired trope, I have weird brand new e-gadgets and peripherals doing very demanding tasks while still relying on Debian stable.

[–] utopiah@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Why am I actually tired of that trope? Because when you propagate the wrong preconception that you need an unstable or quirky distribution to make Linux work with modern hardware, you are gatekeeping. You are preventing others from switching to Linux and it is due to your ignorance.
