If based on reality, I'm sorry to hear it and how it gets better soon. As a Linux user for over a decade, this is extremely funny.

Now, have you heard of Plan9 from Bell Labs?... /s

After decades of hearing how bad that film is, I finally broke down and watched it.

The incredible terrible reputation that precedes it doesn't even remotely do justice to how very very bad it is.

But also, it has Tor in it. That's pretty cool.

For what it's worth the seizures and the Linux started about the same time it's just both have gotten SIGNIFICANTLY worse lately. Computer's running great, hate waking up in the ER though.

Does this refer to the overall Lemmy meta or was there a specific "sucks your mum died; maybe it was from the shame of you using Adobe products" moment?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

I was taking a stab at the meta. Although i don't doubt this has happened somewhere

The issue of lemmy users telling you to use linux can be solved by using linux

[–] [email protected] 4 points 14 hours ago

I say this as an Apple user: most Linux users are pretty normal people. Some are like the most annoying Apple evangelist I’ve ever encountered.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Of course, we never hear from the normal ones.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

Because they’re NORMAL. Only the fanatics force Linux into every conversation possible. The normal ones just read the insane comments and roll their eyes. They know better than to get into an online argument with the obsessed.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Whenever someone tells me about the problem they're having on Windows (which I haven't used on my computer in years) or any Apple OS I explain how I would fix it Linux if I don't happen to know how on their OS. If the Linux way is easier I also usually give it as a comparison.

I only really do this with people who I know could easily get Linux working and people already interested in Linux.

I mean, Linux cannot solve mental problems (hope it can get better <3), but it can help with big number of other problems 🥹so you can still try it 🥹

[–] [email protected] 18 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I feel personally attacked.

Package managers really improve my day.

I think they're referred to as sex workers now but agreed.

What if my mental problems come from fighting Windows?
