Hey twin, lol

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Yes. I like this way better than “tech conservative “

Well except for the Arch part. I’m not a masochist.

[–] LGTM@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 8 months ago

Currently at the crossroads from newborn paranoid into either this or tech paranoid, it's so joever

I live between the tech conservative and tech paranoid with a splash of distro hopping.

[–] Engywuck@lemm.ee 8 points 8 months ago

Same, but I stay on Arch btw.

[–] RandomVideos@programming.dev 23 points 8 months ago

I cant believe i have been called a conservative

[–] 30p87@feddit.org 18 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

I think we're all in between conservative and newborn paranoid ... for me, I love alpha/nightly, which LW doesn't have, so FF it is. But I cope by telling myself that a properly configured FF is just as good as LW. And Signal is better than needing to use WhatsApp with family members.

[–] muhyb@programming.dev 6 points 8 months ago

Yeah, I guess so. The slippery slope is real though.

Someone who even it broke couldn't fix it because it's an Apple.

Between tech normie and tech conservative

TempleOS is the one true legitimate operating system

[–] whotookkarl@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

It is definitely one of the operating systems

[–] Sidhean@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago

This meme is so private that it doesn't even show up on Mbin.

The FSF member does not use libreboot anymore (not entirely free on some boards for a while now). See GNU Boot!

I’m not sure I like being labeled “conservative”…

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Conservative doesn't mean braindead.

It means keeping things the way they are. Like conserving the rain forest.

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Oh I know this in my head. It’s the negative connotation that’s in my heart that’s the problem.

[–] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 5 points 8 months ago

This is the most accurate mem I've ever seen

[–] CheeseNoodle@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Currently on a very locked down version of firefox but also windows, though I've been experimenting with mint on an old laptop in prepration for a switchover.

[–] muhyb@programming.dev 3 points 8 months ago

It's nice to have an old laptop to try things out. Good luck with the switch!

Guilty of being Ricer. To answer the questionmakrs, I decided on Brave (again) recently, although in terms of theming, Firefox definitely offers more.

[–] Hafty@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

I’m firmly tech conservative, but I love MKBHD videos and my iPhone.

[–] hatedbad@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 8 months ago

this is BSD erasure

[–] HollowNaught@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

I've been wanting to transfer my computer to Linux for years now, but I don't want all my mod lists to go up in flames

Besides that, I'm smack bang in newborn paranoid
