I was going to ask when has it ever made sense to run Windows, but then I noticed how old those logos are. Carry on!:-)
What are the current logos then? Did Linux’s change?
That one no.
aw man, why no credit
…wait, from adobe stock?!? hell yeahThat is odd that your comment has 0 upvotes. The normal default is 1, and it’s only been one minute since you said it, so hardly time for someone other than me to have seen it and reacted within that timeframe!? You might have a bot following you around the Fediverse instantly downvoting everything that you do?
i remove my upvote :)
Windows: Just four blue squares
Apple: Same shape, no colour whatsoever
Linux: 🏳️⚧️
I always think it’s so funny that the old stereotypical gray haired man or neckbeard linux user got replaced by the new stereotypical transfem linux user. Now that there’s less need to compile our own software there’s more time to compile our own genders
I disagree. I use Linux but have depression. I’m upset that y’all left me out of this photo
New distro coming to shelves near you: Depression Linux
The default background is black. The colors are all muted. The cursor is slow. The computer shuts down for 12 hours a day. The sounds sound compressed and muffled. When you try to open a program/app, it prompts, “For what? What’s the point?”
With microsoft edge preinstalled
locates webserver hosting it, lights it on fire
and an all-snap packaging system
We call that Arch.
You made this image with a green pepper? That’s impressive, great work.
LONG LIVE THE GIMP BELLPEPPER
Ohhh… I’m a Krita enjoyer so I didn’t know this about gimp. TIL, haha
wait we can’t play tuxcart anymore??? Why even use linux then???
Oh shit, a multi boot diagnosis.
Myself using Linux and home and having to use Windows at work… Seems accurate to me…
As an autist can confirm
20 year Linux user here. Definitely more depressed than autistic (but not claiming to be 100% NT).
Also I just got given a macbook for a new job. Feels weird.
20 day Linux user here and my Windows depression has been replaced with Linux confusion & wikis.
Well, can’t argue with that, my doctor agrees.
Akshually it’s called Autism Spectrum Disorder
I can’t speak for all of us, but I prefer “Autism” as a blanket term (that we hopefully all understand covers a wide spectrum anyway) over “Disorder”. Yes, I get that we deviate from the neurodevelopmental norm, but “Disorder” feels condescending to what I perceive as simply a different way of working.
I also understand that some with higher support needs may differ from that perception. My opinion is not universal.
On the other hand, I’m perfectly fine with calling my ADHD a Disorder. Shit’s chaotic as fuck.
I appreciate that. I have a partner who is on the spectrum and has ADHD as well.
I was only joking in the pedantic style often associated (rightly or wrongly) with autistic traits. ASD is the official DSM-5 term. Of course being a diagnostic manual, that focuses only on behavioral deficits. As I understand, the DSM gets plenty of criticism because like you mention, it omits all the interesting ways folks cope or even creatively use abilities like hyperfocus for positive outcomes. But on the other hand, I’m not sure successful behavior requires any psychological treatment, so that may be unnecessary to include in the first place.
Anyway, I think this is one of many situations where simple terminology doesn’t capture the full nuance of reality. So apologies if that came across as crude.
I didn’t take your comment as rude, personally. To me, opening with Akshually indicated that joking intent to parody pedantry and I took no offense. I just felt like expressing my opinion on the term with no particular judgement of your joke because I think that the words we use are worth talking about.
I know I have a habit of replying seriously to jokes, which often comes across as me taking issue with them. I keep forgetting to clarify the tone of my message. If only there was a medical term for that communication deficit 😉
What about ADHD?
Android ;}
More like: Windows + Linux + Android + FreeBSD = ADHD
Crap… I use all three
