I would argue that's the cool part. You also have the average hyper racist neo-reactionary Suckless fossid user who thinks daring to write in anything other than C is "gay" or smth.

I had a discussion with someone who was of the belief that anyone that doesn't build their own packages and reads the documentation is a lazy retard that doesn't know what they're installing on their computer.

That was a fun conversation

I assume they were a Gentoo user?

Oi bruv don't shoot strays at us

Gentoo have both sides, the cool community and the suckless community xD You can check it in the telegram groups about gentoo

[-] sykaster@feddit.nl 4 points 1 month ago

Spot on, you have similar experiences?

[-] GardenData61371@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Nope. Just that your description fits Gentoo XD

[-] sykaster@feddit.nl 5 points 1 month ago

It was such a weird conversation. He couldn't imagine people not being interested in how a computer works and wanting to configure everything.

As a gay trans man, looking down on people who code in anything other than C is my toxic masculinity. Don’t let reactionaries take it away from me.

You’re not a real man if you use an IDE. Vim and gcc were good enough for the founding fathers (D & R), they’re good enough for me.

I use an IDE... guess I'm not a real man anymore 🏳️‍⚧️

I believe in your right to access gender affirming care (installing netbeans)

Psh, etch the code directly onto the HDD platters, SSDs are for losers.

[-] steventhedev@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

real men write their code one bit at a time with a laser pointer and a fiber optic network cable

Or you could just use zig which is better at compiling C than C (the second it supports the espressif chips I'm never touching C again)

Once you incorporate networking, you’ve lost me. I’d rather implement ed on a billion NAND chips. Soldering is enjoyable and physical; networking gives me aneurysms.

BGP isnt just Turing complete, It's Cthulhu complete

[-] vivendi@programming.dev 6 points 1 month ago

What does suckless have to do with that?
