Speak for yourself

I think the us vs them mentality, while totally normal human behavior, is unwarranted here.

I have tux tattooed on me because I make my living writing software predominantly for Linux, but I work from a unix system rather than Linux.

My next gig doing the same work I will likely be required to use a windows computer as my workstation. It will be out of my hands.

We use the tools we have, sometimes we can change our tools but more often than not people have the tools they have and ascribing your displeasure of their tool to that person is tech tribalism and part of the worst parts of human nature, even if it is over something so insignificant as which operating system someone else is using.

I don’t feel personally attacked by you, and idk why your comment was removed.

The best part is I got it in Amsterdam and after bumbling through my awful Dutch the artist asked if we could switch to English where we both recognized each others accent and discovered we grew up in the same neighborhood (on the other side of the planet) and went to the same high school 6 years apart.

Who do I think I am

A human who largely succeeds in communicating with other humans without resorting to talking to them the way you are.

Take care dude

“Just use this other thing instead” has never been a good faith solution for when people have a problem with something else.

It doesn’t matter if you are right that tool a works better than tool b, especially when sometimes people are unfortunately not providing their own tools.

So no, your take is wrong again.

I say this from the position of someone who literally has tux tattooed on them.

Someone made a tongue in cheek meme pointing out the obnoxious mentality of the “just use Linux” crowd and your response was to double down and prove their point.
