I don’t know, I’m just a sqwrl.

But at the end of the day, there’s only one program in control of all the hardware. They’re all getting the kernel from the same place, the distros aren’t writing their own kernels except for a few tweaks here and there.
How does this happen? Do not most major desktop Linux distros more or less run almost the same kernel with the same driver modules? (Except in the case of Debian being several years behind the rest).
as a man, I ain’t rocking thigh-high socks
Is this because you actively choose to not wear them as a man, or because society will try to make you feel wrong for doing it?
If the latter, then fuck everyone else.
Problem is there same one that plagues most open source software. Who enforces or organizes the desktop theming standard that every desktop environment will use? You’re going to have to come up with a universally acceptable method. Are we going to use CSS? Or just some kind of config file? There are many different ways to do what you want, how do we choose one?

The acronym kinda sounds like an STD.
Okay, so, this place IS filled with furries. Cool.
Now hang on, 2008 ain’t that old…
Realizes it was 17 years ago
Slowly walks into the sea.
For shits and giggles I played with them in a virtual machine a couple years ago. They are near fucking useless.
Amazing how wide the gaps can be in tech. A friend of mine is all over Windows power shell scripting of which I know next to nothing about, but he’s just as stumped when he sees me writing C for embedded microcontrollers.
But people who aren’t heavily into tech will just look at both of us and ask to fix their printer because we’re both “good with computers”. 🤣
Sure, potato is nice, but also running Linux on an actually powerful machine is also very nice. I love compilations of some things being reduced to seconds from minutes. It spoils you and you never want to go back to potat.


I can’t believe I’m older than this thing.


The zoomers and gen-alpha aren’t doing much better. Just ask the average teen what a filesystem is and how to find a file without it being organized in some sort of media gallery app.
As a millennial, I often feel like I’m surrounded by tech illiterates on both the upper AND lower sides of my age bracket.
Wow, you must be one of today’s lucky 10,000!
(the term “Winblows” is like 30 years old. We were trash-talking Windows 95/98 with it 😂).

I’m gonna squeak up in this thread too and shift the average up some more because I also am furry trash.
I wish mobile Krita had a more mobile friendly interface though instead of just being a squished down desktop UI. I primarily draw on my tablet with a stylus.
If OP was actually gonna go proper black hat, this post would not exist.
