  • He doesn’t understand gender binaries

    He probably does, he uses he/him pronouns, but his race simply doesn’t have gender, being amorphous blobs and all

    Liberal myth that pigs exist for the sake of justice

    He was placed in his role by a literal actual fascist general, and only stayed there because his sense of actual justice wouldn’t let him let someone else take the role and implement the Cardassian “justice” (“line up 5 random Bajorans and execute them”). This is established very early on and very explicitly. I don’t like the police institution either, but Odo is not the right tree to be barking up, and definitely not the right way to say “the Star Trek future is creepy” (He doesn’t even work for Starfleet, they just kept him on because he was well-liked in the DS9 community)










  • Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

    This may be an unpopular opinion, but NixOS. It has package up-to-dateness comparable to (and sometimes better than) Arch, but between being declarative (and reproducible) and allowing rollbacks, it’s much harder to break. The cost is, of course, having to learn how to use NixOS, as it’s a fair bit different to using a “normal” Linux distro.






  • Was ready to downvote but this is actually a really good guide, well done OP! The one issue I will raise, though, because I faced it myself, is that as long as you’re still using Windows, it is way too easy to just go back to using the Windows programs not the open source ones. Only through switching to Linux can you really “throw yourself into the deep end” and force yourself to learn these new things. Microsoft has made themselves the “path of least resistance” (or at least that of “most momentum” for a reason) and if you’ve been using a computer for a while, it’s a lot easier to break the habits and realise the benefits by giving yourself no other option than it is by trying to discipline yourself into using the new options.
