I never really learned this skill. I can just lie down in bed all day doing nothing (apart from thinking), and not get bored. This trait is not very beneficial for productivity…

My cat: “You are a heated bed for me to nap on. If you even think about getting up, I will murder you.”
In general and if you don’t know the person you’re making the recommendation to, agreed. But I know several people I’d definitely recommend (and have recommended) Arch to as the first distro. Even just the installation process is so educational, it’s a worthy starting point, after some general youtube videos perhaps. If someone just wants to take Linux for a quick test drive, Arch definitely isn’t the way to go.
Although, I’ll admit I’m not sure how to describe the type of people I’d recommend it to. If their interest is less practical, and more theoretical. Or if they get really into their hobbies and like to tinker and poke at things to see what happens. Or if they just have an endless curiosity and need to understand. Surprisingly many people I know fall into these categories.
That was pretty much me when I first decided to try installing Arch… at 2am.
I did always find those bird enthusiasts strange. As a side note, I wonder if there’s a conspiracy theory among birds about how humans are actually government surveillance drones…
Their true legacy will be their fabulous eyebrows which shall be remembered for thousands of years.
When I was done reading the comic, this is exactly the image I had in mind! Good thing I’m not the only pessimist around, I love it.
This gives me very strong Talos Principle vibes. I should try playing the sequel at some point…
This little frog has sparked some joy. It shall get me through the next week or two.
I love this. I’ll also probably have nightmares tonight now that I’ve been reminded of Lovecraft’s stories. XD
Maybe they are what the dimension needs to be protected from?
I randomly came across this community maybe two weeks ago. I still have no idea what this community is about, but I know I love the content. Thanks for putting effort into moderating thingies, have a cookie! 🍪
I remember reading so many of these as a kid. I had completely forgotten about these. A nice surprise in my feed.
