    All of my personal machines are Linux. I’m forced to use Windows for work, like nearly all knowledge workers. You’ll find out about it when you grow up.

      I just made linux on the company laptop a requirement for me working at the current company. They told me, that I would have to install and maintain it myself, so I have Arch Linux on my company laptop. I like it a lot more than Debian, which I had to use at the previous company.

      I have never used windows in a work environment so far.

      I’m pretty sure, when I grew up, my aspirations were a bit higher than bragging about being a corporate drone.

      When your value comes from the experience on your resume and not the stack of CompTIA certifications that you purchased while attending college, you get job offers that don’t come with a cubicle.

        Yeah, they come with a spatula and a mop.

        Tell me you’re divorced from the reality of a late-stage capitalist society without telling me, bro.

          You’re right, there’s nothing that you can do but give in to the ghouls and take our allotted job, then spend our free time bitterly slinging shit at people who don’t follow in our rut.

          There’s no change possible and anyone who pretends otherwise should be boo’d out of the conversation so we can all return to our miserable lives supporting the corporate boot with our collective necks.

          How silly of me for aspiring to more. Thank you, wise young adult, for sharing the wisdom of your many hours looking at an-cap memes. I shall return to my spatula and mop, lest I upset the rest of the cattle.

            Aspiring to more? Motherfucker, how do expect to do that waxing poetic about ruts and calling everyone who doesn’t buy your im14andthisisdeep rhetoric cattle? Young adult, indeed.

            Here’s a hint: a stack of certifications is going is going to do you more good than some ego-trip pipe dream about single-handedly bucking the system. Save that Crimethinc reality-dodging bullshit for the rest of the trustsfarian lifestylists.

            BTW, I’m a libertarian socialist and a member of the DSA and IWW. Ancaps can kiss my dick.
