DgarNew York City is like Linux
* Spend the first year re-learning how to perform basic tasks
* Spend the rest of your lifetime claiming how much better it is
* Bad drivers
The Manchurian Idiot@dgar

@dgar 😆😆👏👏
kauer@dgar An excellent summary! Except that you misspelled "enjoying" as "claiming".
Not sure where you got "bad drivers" from.
Anyway, gotta go drink the 8,763rd coffee I've bought with the money I've saved through never having to pay for software licences.

Steve@dgar Having lived in NYC for 9 years, yeah, that sounds about right.
Except that using Linux is something I can still afford to do.

The Linux people puzzled me until I read this. But I understand New Yorkers, so now it makes sense.

For the record though, NY drivers are aggressive. Boston drivers are bad.

bazkie bumpercar | unfluencer@dgar As an avid Linux user, I hate this! Reluctantly favorited 😜

Sir David Nielsen@dgar @lisamelton underfunded public infrastructure everybody relies on and too many fascists… wait, you might have found the perfect metaphor.
Gemma ⭐️🔰🇺🇸 🇵🇭 🎐@dgar Well, in my case, I was born there, so that first year was spent, not re-learning basic tasks, but learning them for the first time. :D
skribe 🇺🇦 
Rob Bos@dgar More RAT options, at least.
Amy (she/her/hers)@dgar can't say the bad drivers one anymore except for novideo... i use linux to bring back to life tech that's broken on other systems. even printers (old and new), never usable on windows or macos, don't even have to add the printer on linux its just automatically there
medium rare bird@dgar you forgot dollar pizza which is the only reason I use Linux anyway
~robby@dgar what you’re referring to as new york is actually upstate/new york
Tika@dgar At least my graphics driver is about 50% less likely to crash than the Windows one my friends have to deal with 😛
Tim Ward ⭐🇪🇺🔶 #FBPE@dgar Never been. I don't go to the US on my own money 'cos of the guns, and business travel in my trade died when someone invented the internet.
