    Makes dumb people feel smart.

    Gives people who lack agency in life something they use to look down on others, despite no one caring.

    For a tiny majority that have them. It is a useful red flag for your loved ones, that the slide of mental illness continues.

    They secretly desire to be seen as hackers by others; reality is they are hacks.

    They lack the ability to enjoy self deprecating humor and handle feelings but this is most often expressed by downvoting.

    The inky blackness of terminal screens to sates their inner emo.

      LOL me writing this, using neovim and a split keyboard to make me feel smart. There is definitly some truth to this. But I never look down upon people for not using the technology I choose. People on here can be really annoying. It’s like the virtue signaling Linux.

          Kinesis Advantage 360 Pro. Pretty sure it was refurbished by Kinesis for a discount

      The entirety of bioinformatics runs on Linux. I doubt you’d be able to clear an entry level exam to join a bioinformatics program.

        They are all downvoting my shit comment to a shitpost, so they’re all proving it correct.

        Most people who use Linux don’t tie their personality to it. I’ve long suspected that Lemmy has few of those.

            It’s a shit posting sub. This is how it works. It’s not anyone’s safe place. Feelings are the punchline here.

              But you’re not, like, being clever or fun. It’s just really crude self validating antagonism where you declare that any engagement is you winning.

              It’s crass, juvenile, disingenuous, unsophisticated, and, worst of all; not providing anything to your audience, not even trying to be funny. It serves only to highlight your vices.

              Which, you know, can come off if youve got some literary chops, if you ride the lightning between kauffman and plath, or try to do your best rick sanchez. But this isn’t that. It’s not even a failed attempt to be that. You’re using your computer as an excuse to ignore the humanity of others so you can abuse that humanity for human validation.

              It is an inchoate display of the ugliness that chokes your otherwise empty little heart.
