Audentes Fortuna Iuvat

  • The urge to shout "HE CAN CHANGE! YOU DON'T KNOW HIM LIKE I DO!" is pretty strong right now 🤣

  • I'd love to see what happens if I keep being nice and you keep doubling down on the negative vibes, but it seems to me we're already straining several of this community's rules so I'm gonna leave it there. Enjoy the rest of your day.

  • I'm being polite. Try it, it's more fun :)

  • I get it. You're basically lovable hippies who found a cool thing and can't imagine why anyone would want to use something less good (in their view). Best answer to my question so far thanks :)

  • "Microsoft is an awful company all around that deserves no one's business"

    Wait... all of the 228,000 people at Microsoft don't deserve anyone's business? That seems harsh and a little bit of a broad brush.

  • I'm going to die of thirst if I don't use Linux? Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh 😧

  • My OS is not abusing me. I'm fine. In fact it's been incredibly empowering for the last 40 years. I mean it WAS abuse back then, trying to install the damn thing from those 5.25" floppies. Now it's smooth as butter and I love it because I remember the journey from then to now so clearly.

  • No need for that mate.

  • Wow, you learnt that today RandomGS310 did you? The joy that must have given you that you immediately created an account and this was your first and only post? Good for you my totally authentic friend.

    If we could all just break character for a sec... I've been meaning to ask you Linux lovers a question for a while. Why is it so important to you that everyone starts using Linux? It just seems like you all put so much effort into trying to convert/coerce/shame people into using Linux and I've just never understood why?

  • I don't think something like that would happen here. It's an extremely professional workplace and Matt's a really good guy. Can I go? Matt's birthday's starting and bunch of Mets are here.

  • There really is no need for this rudeness. I'm sure you can make your point without resorting to this kind of language. Please see rule 3 and let's try not to turn into reddit (Clarification: I am not a mod or trying to impersonate one. This is just my opinion).

  • Wow those pads and pens look awesome! 🙂

  • Tell me you're neurotypical without telling me you're neurotypical.

  • In your place I'd be tempted to notice the negative reaction this comment got (the most in this thread by far) and see it as an invitation to widen your understanding of neurodivergence. A lot of neurodivergent people struggle with feelings of being "broken" that they may have experienced for a whole lifetime. It's only very recently that a global conversation about neurodivergence based on understanding rather than shaming has started to happen. Your comment, perhaps unwittingly, hit a nerve. Ironically, it also potentially displayed markers for neurodivergence, in the sense that you weren't able to anticipate the feelings it would manifest. If you are "one of us" I hope you have a helpful journey of discovery ahead of you and people who can support you through it 🙂

  • What a lovely human conversation this turned out to be. Hope you both have a great day 😁

  • My favourite Steam game is called "spending money unwisely". Ooh that dopamine hit when the "Thank you for your recent Steam purchase" message comes in" (chef's kiss).

  • Launching a war to go retrieve his Nobel PEACE prize. This stuff writes itself lol

  • I'm pretty sure those are the outfits they will be wearing when they eventually emerge from their New Zealand bunkers "Behold your new masters you heavily irradiated peasants".

  • That is true but I don't think they've ever solved the issue it has with taking longer and longer to load each time. Love VLC though ❤️
