  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Dear linux users. Is it a red flag if she is active in a Catholic Dating group?

    Edit:. and that she is still on reddit?

    [–] dogsnest@lemmy.world 105 points 3 months ago

    The 'she' part works for me!

    [–] noride@lemm.ee 75 points 3 months ago (2 children)

    Why would they need to date anyway? That's just questioning God's Plan for them.

    Yes. We only accept our true gods and leaders here: Linus, Richard, Tux and Xenia.

    Ooh, I'm a cash cow apparently.

    But seriously, are there really women who talk about men in those terms?

    But seriously, are there really women who talk about men in those terms?

    Yes. Personally, I see it as the mirror image of the "tradwife" thing where toxic men see their partner as a subservient maid. Seeing men as primarily an income source comes from a similar place imho.

    These two groups deserve each other.

    If I can't be a milk cow, then at least let me be a cash cow

    [–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 24 points 3 months ago (3 children)

    You have never opened the box of "Female Dating Strategy". Welcome to the world of "low value males"

    [–] Got_Bent@lemmy.world 17 points 3 months ago

    Just looked through some of that stuff. Holy hell, it would be easier to be seen as without sin through the eyes of an angry old testament God than it would be to be seen as worthy of dating from that crowd. And that's fine, because I would want less than zero to do with it.

    (Assuming it's real. Who knows? Could be a bunch of neckbeards cosplaying, but if I've learned anything in life, it's that there are shitty shitty men in this world, and that there are equally shitty shitty women in this world)

    Nerds fix stuff around the house? Girl, I couldn't even repair that plumbing if I wanted to. This is a job for a professional.

    [–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 34 points 3 months ago (5 children)

    Nerd here that was EXTREMELY disappointed in losing the opportunity to own a house.

    I wanted to get into the home electronics/plumbing stuff. Although to be honest, I am less keen on the plumbing since it's a wet mess.

    Actually, some nerds are handy with electronics and stuff like that, myself included.

    [–] abbadon420@lemm.ee 21 points 3 months ago (2 children)

    It could be even worse. Some needs enjoy to learn things, anything. Doesn't,t matter if it's NixOs or plastering.

    Apparently, Catholic dating is all about money

    Usually what they actually mean by "strong family values"

    anyone who picks at every little thing a partner or potential partner does by requiring the Internet to approve it is toxic as hell. asking the Internet if a behavior that doesn't effect you is a red flag is a massive red flag.

    In a confession Aug. 21, however, Reiser said he used "the most unsophisticated chokehold that any judo instructor would completely despise you for ever using," according to a 30-page transcript obtained by The Chronicle

    I probably shouldn't laugh, but.... :D

    Why is she even asking the question? Shouldn't she just be quiet and submit like her magic book tells her to?

    Why wouldnt nerds cheat? :)

    The logic is a bit lacking here but I guess it's some variation of that nerds would be so grateful to have a girl that they won't cheat...
