i like how theres the stereotype of being a:

  • fat man who lives in their parents basement
  • femboy with programmer socks
  • furry

and all of that just for arch/gentoo users

Everyone knows us Debian wooks all live in yurts and attend monthly struggle sessions.

[-] digger@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago

I've never felt so seen in a comment. Also, you're down to monthly?

[-] qyron@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

We do?

I don't know why, but saying a trans just sounds weird.

But yes, walking stereotype. I bet you like Fallout New Vegas, too

[-] vis4valentine@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 year ago

Oh shit, I didn't see the A. thanks for pointing it out. Maybe my brain was going in the direction of "a trans person".

[-] miss_brainfart@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 year ago

Brainfarts are my specialty, so yeah, that sounds likely

[-] vis4valentine@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

BTW, yes I was exploring the Mojave just a moment ago.

Love it

I played it for the first time just recently, and as I'm amab I played as a woman. As I always do.

[-] vis4valentine@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Great! I convinced my (cis) boyfriend to play it for the first time a few weeks ago and I think he has like 40 hours and still haven't finished the game.

I am also playing it to try things I couldn't try previously.

I've never seen that stereotype. I'm not so sure it is one.

[-] EbonyEarl@lemmy.fmhy.net 3 points 1 year ago

The closest thing I've seen to this is femboys using Arch.

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 10 points 1 year ago

Keep my distro's name outcha mouf!!!

[-] Lileath@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 year ago

Does it count when I am nonbinary and use openSUSE as my daily driver?

[-] drew_belloc@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Wait! Is not the other way around?

[-] teddy2021@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I would've thought that the stereotype would have been an overweight white male with patchy facial hair who probably uses arch.

Hey. I will have you know that this magnificent beard is a sign of martial prowess and masculinity. I could easily cut you in half with any of my katanas but would find it easiest with the bat'leth, with which I have trained extensively for some time. Of course I would not have to wield the blade myself, as I can simply use my programming skills on my arch setup to program a robot to do so.

[-] MajorHavoc@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Just because I'm building a robot that wields a bat'leth, doesn't mean I'm using Arch.

I mean...I am using Arch.

But I chose Arch for entirely separate personal reasons.
