Then they put on the socks and become girls
The amount of time and effort needed to go through an Arch installation and succeeding probably is more therapeutic than paying $100 for a session of therapy. It’s enough to make them finally come out after all 🤷
Who needs therapy when you have pacman?
You should try gentoo as a therapy replacement next. It’s basically the adult version of maintaining a long running Animal Crossing save.
Every morning I wake up, grab a coffee and update my system @world. Almost every day it goes without a hitch and I watch the system evaluate and resolve any incongruities that might emerge from updates by itself. Other times I might need to make a intervention in the dependencies to guide it to a resolution; but it’s a small nudge in the right direction, like tweaking a miniature ship inside a bottle.
This is partially tongue in cheek but I unironically get a lot of joy out of administrating my PC: Having it completely customized and working exactly like I need it to.

Well, you do have to feed, er, update it at least every six months if you don’t want to be left with an unholy mess to clean up.
I DON’T HAVE A PROBLEM buys 3 more Thinkpads on eBay
I can stop whenever I want. Buys a pallet of busted Thinkpad.
Looks at M2 macbook running NixOS
Ok maybe I do need help.
woman would take care for a literal horse instead of going to therapy. i don’t see anything wrong there either.
just a horse is way more expensive, cannot be put aside for a week on vacations (could a notebook be put aside?) and one cannot make backups of horses or carry them with you when visiting friends. Horses are way more cute, though.
My right index finger still has an indent from using the clit-mouse to play Starcraft on a Thinkpad 25 years ago.
The voices in my head says “daily drive ParrotOS”
It’s hard to find a therapist who meshes well with you and can help you make progress, but a busted Lenovo takes to Arch better than Saint Louis.
I mean, if it helps why not! I honestly really do have a lot of fun tinkering with Linux, it’s one of the big draws of the OS to me.
Costs a lot less than therapy too.
Because *mumble mumble* no Windows into your soul
I don’t like Windows. They leak a lot of air, they are expensive to replace, and you usually just end up covering them anyway.
I also don’t like the OS much either. lol
My submarine functions so much better since I nailed them all shut.
i installed LMDE on a used ThinkPad AND went to therapy btw
That is the way
I mean can thearopy give me a neofetch?
i own four xx20 series thinkpads. One of which has debian with i3wm, the other three dont have anything installed atm. Sue me ik.
xx20 series is the best tbh. The only thing maybe arguably better is x80 series, due to the more modern processors and actual features over the xx20 series. xx40
my w520 with an i7 2720qm or whatever the fuck is it is is genuinely better than any intel mobile cpu that isn’t quad core. AND it’s socketed.
looking for a cheap xx40s (or p it’s whichever one is better i cant remember) just for the completion, as well as an xx80 just to have one with more modern hardware, but my xx20 is everything i’ll need in a laptop tbh. I would also like to get an x220 at some point.
naming legend for anybody wondering.
- x - model type, w, t, x, etc
- x - the device type, 4, 5, 2, etc usually screen size related
- n - device model? Release related.
- n - 0, just the number zero, anything that isn’t a zero is e waste im pretty sure.
