Why am I in this photo?
i’m tagging you as “admitted to wearing mid-calf black socks with sandals and cargo pants at the same time”
Close enough
Black socks?
Do you have screen colour inversion?no, i’m just teasing
This is FreeBSD.
Those are not thigh-highs.
💀💀💀
Opensuse dysphoria unlocked. But I guess I’m also a debian, arch, and nixos user so it cancels out

Rich or dumpster diver? Taking all bets! I also offer videoooo pokeeeeeer!
Ubuntu:
Ubuntu user here, can confirm
Very snappy.
How fitting that https://ubuntu.de/ is a literal circus
This is mine
Linux From Scratch
Nah that’s arch linux from scratch is more like
Put some machines next to that and you got Gentoo, though from a different point of view.
I feel like if you’re at that point you’re developing your own kernel (just a hobby project, won’t be anything big)
Nah’ that’s when you get into gene editing, or if you’re old school just select it over and over again until it fits what you want.
ironically Debian is the straightest OS, it’s named after the creator and his girlfriend who became his wife and he had kids with
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Murdock
He named Debian after his then-girlfriend (later wife) Debra Lynn Roundy, and himself.[4] They later married, had three children, and divorced in January 2008.[5]
Although obviously, straight people can make things for lesbians/lesbians can use things made by straight people (and they often do!)
EDIT : I missed the obvious joke : Debian > ebian > (L)e(s)bian(s)
For some reason this made me think of spaghetti, which is straight until it gets hot and wet, and actually, SpaghettiOS would not be a bad name for a distro. Except for trademark issues etc, but still.

Also technically, gay people can marry someone of the opposite gender and have kids with them (and they sometimes do!)
Didn’t he kill himself?
Edit: I read the article. Yes he did.
Desbian
Ubuntu
Dang I just learned I need to switch to Ubuntu
Is that an Enterprise?
LMDE:
Can confirm - LMDE is made for lesbians.
For lesbians, by lesbians, with lesbians.

Suspiciously similar to Mint…
slackware
Also.
tell me it still ships with
ddate
Gentoo requires you to grow the cotton, process it, and then knit the thigh-highs yourself
that’s linux from scratch
Nah, it’s both of them. The difference is, Gentoo gives you a cotton gin and a loom.
damnit, ordered the wrong color socks AGAIN. Wish the arch wiki would have this documented.
Arch comes without socks by default. It’s up to you which ones you
installbuy.I used
archinstallarchsockbuysudo pacman -S archsocks
Watch out to not accidentally make a typo and change a vowel. Otherwise pacman will be upset and sabotage your install.
I use Linux Mint at work and Pop!OS at home. Sorry to disappoint.
For all we know, those could be thigh high socks
Lol
You should try harder, probably.
If they don’t smell like shit, they won’t count.
Nice trousers.
Need to get it tailored to get a fit like this nowadays. No OTSThey just look ironed to me

I have the opposite reaction when I see these memes. To me it’s a reminder of how inclusive some of my favorite nerdy communities are, on top of being a fun little in-joke like any meme should be. And I’m an old beardy middle aged dad too for whatever that’s worth.
However, that doesn’t mean the image itself is innocent or appropriate for most audiences. I’m not going to be asking the family’s opinion on this one, lol. But I don’t see it as a manga fetish thing at all. More empowerment than exploitation for the owners of the legs shown.
I had the same thought and am fairly confused by the outrage.
Isn’t the whole joke that as soon as we sit down to nerd out on Linux that we put on our frilly socks? There’s even the whole unixsocks comm dedicated to it. And it always felt good in a throwback to the 90s ‘outcast geek’ community without all the cis dude-by-default baggage bit of in-joking. Welcoming all our brothers and sisters by highlighting just how much they are part of our community.
What does OP think the image suggests I wonder?

oh its a shame you deleted this that person is a fkn loser and deserves to be called out for being a bigotted freak. they posted like 4 comments under this one thread looking at their account its wild
You’re completely right, and my opinion hasn’t changed they are an awful transphobic person that posted heinous transphobic bullshit.
Since a moderator thankfully deleted the comments already I didn’t want to make anybody have to read their contents again, was my thinking.
I like the way this comment assumes the unix socks meme is perpetuated by horny neckbeards, not horny transwomen.
Don’t forget the horny femboys
deleted by creator
To catch you up, transwomen Unix users have taken to posting pictures of their customised desktops while wearing stockings. I’m assuming it’s part of their gender affirmation or a desire to share both interests at once.
This meme implies there are standard pairings of oses and stocking types.

I think the socks thing is more of a reference to trans people (or femboys or however they liked to be called) who like linux

It didn’t occur to me that the people in the graphic might be women. 😆
Respecting people is way more important than “getting” a meme, so your head’s in the right place, regardless.
What’s this got to do with women?
I can confirm that even female penguins prefer to wear tuxedos ☺
deleted by creator
To me it just means maybe I should try Gentoo
Seedy? I think you are reading more into the socks than I am.
I mean I took it as what /I’d/ wear, because I do like wearing thigh high socks.

Men like women bodies. Thats why you are here on this planet. Your dad got attracted to your mom, probably because of her body.
I really think you have lost your mojo if you are offended by this.
