Her life is normal. The depiction on the television is fiction. No reason to be envious
Build the world you want to live in.
Does that mean you are not happy in your own life?
Maybe yes maybe no.
I still don’t envy a situation in television that is so unreal like a prince (or something similar) dancing with his dream woman (I assume). It’s so surreal tgat I can’t take it serious and can’t envy it.
I guess happy families are fake TV stuff! 🙄
Entertainment depicts garbage as well as enviable traits and lessons many of which align with feeling loved and accepted.
Is your family unhappy because you use Linux and Lemmy?
I’d encourage you to read what I responded to and then wrote. I’m not sure what your point even was.
Theyre lamenting the fact that the tv is bootloader locked and cant run aosp and voyager… right??
I pass for normal sometimes
The easy way to have both is:
- be trans girl
- get a gf who’s also a nerd
- not straight romance like on TV, but who cares, lesbians are better anyway.
I have genuinely never heard of a straight woman using Linux. They all seem to be trans
Did you mean that you’ve never heard of a non-trans woman using Linux?
cis is the word you are looking for
Ah yes, you’re right.
Yes
To be clear, there are straight trans women
Oh

IRL I only know of one person who uses Linux as a desktop computer.
i also know one person, that person is me :)
I’m an imposter. I run Win11 because work and home needs require some Windows only software. I do run Linux servers and i use WSL. So that one person I know isn’t me.
WSL doesn’t count
sincerely - Embrace, extend, extinguish
shitposting aside, I have win 10 installed on an ssd in my main rig, but i haven’t seriously booted it in years by now. I’m in the process of eventually “decommissioning” it, so i put it into an old thinkpad i have lying around.

I’ve worked with a few before.
The thing is that unfortunately women receive a lot of harassment online, so they’ll often use a gender-neutral or male-sounding username online, and maybe won’t post as much so as to not draw attention to themselves.
I’m not sure why it’s more common to see trans women in online communities though. Maybe in general they’re more thick-skinned or are less worried about posting online, or maybe just spend more time online in general? Not sure.
Plenty of trans folks go harder on gender expression online because they have difficulties to do so IRL, even if being female presenting tends to result in more issues.
massive correlation with being trans, and being super adhd/asd/french/some other mental disorder (having one disorder means you have a strong possibility of having others, they’re all extremely tied into each other, including gender dysphoria) which are things that cause you to be significantly more likely to spend a majority of your time on the internet and on obscure/nerdy/highly derived forums for various complicated and straightforward reasons.
being a social outcast also may push people towards corners of the internet, and trans people are often social outcasts even if they don’t have some other disability causing them to be (especially those from more rural/more conservative or religious areas)
This is a great comment, and I should have said something similar in my comment. Thanks for writing it.
There’s dozens of us, I swear! I know a few more too! I also load it on to hardware I upcycle for charity and I know a few went to women. :) Everyone can get comfortable with Mint. It’s easier than Windows these days.
I knew one once, but she was borderline abused into it by her boyfriend. The same guy made me a linux user. He is quite succesful at that, if only he knew how to take a shower.
Straight woman using linux is pure fiction, i mean, if nerds will see one in real life, she’ll have to fight them off like in world war z
i envy the functionality of normal people, until i see someone engaging in a “normal” relationship. Then i immediately remember that i don’t have things so bad, and that i should focus on what makes my life enjoyable.
Anyway, i have i3 to configure, and other problems to ignore, i will go about my day now.
i want nerdy gf smh
she smells like greasy hair and rants about random statistics she finds interesting when you’re trying to fall asleep
I have a hard time telling if you’re trying to pain a negative picture or add to it.
Just telling the facts
I like your facts.
So there are pros and cons?
Sounds like pros and pros to me
as with all things in life
Have nerdy gf, can only recommend.
They don’t know they don’t have freedom.
one of these days i am going to start walking up to random people in public and whisper this statement in their ear and then walk away.
Source?
Here: https://kernel.org/
Technically the truth
Good one, but I meant the comic/manga.
I looked at kernel source code enough as a gentoo user
the manga is https://lore.kernel.org
Read it also quite a lot, love getting a good laugh from linuses comnents.
Killer in love
Some sort of otome villainess shit I’m sure.
I thought i was the only one

Don’t tell me that getting blazed and watching Adventure Time together isn’t romantic.
