That might be the same person, just at work vs at home.

The Linux to Transfem pipeline is real!
Hmmm that can't be right, did I use the wrong terminal? Why can I only sometimes be a girl?

Or it's their child
Wake up, Neo
It must feel so good to get home, take of your slacks, and let your programming socks out after a long day in the computer mines.
I have more in common with the guy on the left but I love and support the people on the right
They support you too... And the whole internet infrastructure!
I read people on the tight π€
All about that bussy
I've reached the acceptance stage of possibly being a pariah in the community for not wanting to wear the socks.
I'm also a cis-gendered heterosexual male, so I guess that tracks.
ok but have you tried the long socks? they're comfortable. also you can get manly hockey player style ones
I used to play ice hockey as a preteen/teen, so I've worn 'em in that context.
As far as the fem-boy/"girly" ones, I'm just not into it. Any socks above mid-achilles tendon make me itch. I have hairy legs.
what about striped ankle socks π
Well! My wife is Dutch and she bought me a pair of Dutch HappySocksβ’ with stripes a few birthdays ago.
those are awesome and they definitely count as programming socks 11/10
My company just went under and let us keep our laptops, day after they wiped it I got Ubuntu on it. So I'm a little bit of column A, little bit of column B!
Dont have the socks yet huh?
Programming socks.
I've worked with a bunch of hardcore Linux users in my career, some of whom even knew about Lemmy. Not one of them have ever worn striped socks though.
The number of trans people is very small. Only a small percentage of people who work in tech are trans. But a relatively huge percentage of trans people work in tech.
I don't work in tech but literally just put stickers and opensuse on a refurbished Thinkpad I bought a few days ago π«‘
I guess the important thing is Arch π€π«
A lot of transfems boymode in a professional setting :c
(Myself included)

Ugh. I hope the current owner has new keycaps for all the sock colors because matching socks + keyboard is cool, but well⦠when you change your socks that goes out the window
Judging by that picture, I think theyβre all in on that color scheme and likely just bought multiple pairs of the same socks.
Thatβs baller
Redundant socks is essential for this setup.

"plural inside"
Multi-CPU systems be like.

X200s Love it.
Same for old Dell, the $2000 laptop can be grabbed at $300 after 3 years, this is really cool. I installed Linux on mine too of course.
Now I just gotta replace my battery so it can be a laptop again!
The replacement battery you bought in 2017 was the last of the genuine stock for that 2012 Thinkpad model. Now it's only poor quality aftermarket. Maybe just stick with the existing genuine battery -- its 47 second runtime should be enough time for AC loss to trigger a custom script to make it hibernate.
