    Pfft, Linux users don’t date. We’re all virginal, paranoid shut-ins.

      The trick is securing a marriage before using Linux, if try the other way around it doesn’t work.

        Shortly after getting my steam deck and seriously learning Linux past tiny personal servers, I got divorced

          I know correlation ≠ causation, but I really want to believe your relationship was ruined because your wife was sneaking out in the middle of the night to use Windows

        I don’t know. I’m pretty sure one of the many ways you can end a marriage is installing Gentoo and saying “I’m just gonna go and compile my kernel.” to your significant other, then go to your computer and just never be heard from again.

        Can confirm this works. Windows user thru single life. Married, switched to Linux on my laptop. Now separated and life in ruins but a smile always sneaks in booting up Kubuntu.

      I don’t date because women are proprietary.
      You can share them with the community, but you can’t modify and use them in any way you like.

      Yeah, ikr? My wife won’t even bang me, and I’m fairly sure it’s part of a global conspiracy to make my balls explode

        i have the same situation. i figured i could have sex with someone else then, but other women seem to also know i use linux because nobody else will bang me either. and i doubt it’s my looks, mom says i’m handsome, so it has to be the linux stuff.

      I dated and married.

      I love the story of how I met my now-wife. It was on IRC. When I was trying to start to meet women, I never would have guessed that that would be how I met my future wife.

        A keeper, and u should be a good husband to her.

        Btw, let me fetch some grasses outside first

          I’m not sure I’m succeeding, but I’m trying hard to be good to her. She’s the best person I know.

          Last time I touched grass, I hyperextended my already injured ankle. I’m super tentative about that kind of thing now.

      The types for significant others and distros hash to the same location in the table, it’s just bad luck and there’s nothing we can do about it.

        We should hang out.

        But, like … Inside.
