    i like how theres the stereotype of being a:

    • fat man who lives in their parents basement
    • femboy with programmer socks
    • furry

    and all of that just for arch/gentoo users

    I don’t know why, but saying a trans just sounds weird.

    But yes, walking stereotype. I bet you like Fallout New Vegas, too

      Oh shit, I didn’t see the A. thanks for pointing it out. Maybe my brain was going in the direction of “a trans person”.

            Love it

            I played it for the first time just recently, and as I’m amab I played as a woman. As I always do.

              Great! I convinced my (cis) boyfriend to play it for the first time a few weeks ago and I think he has like 40 hours and still haven’t finished the game.

              I am also playing it to try things I couldn’t try previously.

    I’ve never seen that stereotype. I’m not so sure it is one.

      Yeah, I would’ve thought that the stereotype would have been an overweight white male with patchy facial hair who probably uses arch.

        Hey. I will have you know that this magnificent beard is a sign of martial prowess and masculinity. I could easily cut you in half with any of my katanas but would find it easiest with the bat’leth, with which I have trained extensively for some time. Of course I would not have to wield the blade myself, as I can simply use my programming skills on my arch setup to program a robot to do so.

          Just because I’m building a robot that wields a bat’leth, doesn’t mean I’m using Arch.

          I mean…I am using Arch.

          But I chose Arch for entirely separate personal reasons.
