yea

lmfao

dok??? i think i know that name…

or is the dok on irc a different one?

why did you start using linux

because it was my only option for newer software, my pc is too old for newer windows (also because of it having no internet so all my browsing was mobile)

does your hardware meet win11 requirements

nope

do you use an immutable distro

yes on mobile (android); nope on pc (puppylinux isnt immutable, it even autologins you as root at boot)

do you use propietary software

dude i literally use windows and msdos its pretty clear i do (even if lately my daily driver is linux and im starting to go more and more into the open stuff)

hi im dosuser123456 but you can just call me dos, i aftuallky joined 4 months ago…

originally made this account juat for an event but over time its beciome basicallly my main social network along with irc lol

so uh im just a 14 year old nerd who has a random site, codes mainly in basic (but also batch i guess) and probably has no social life (im quite shy irl)

oh im also a musicisn and a composer (kinda, if beepbox and “uh this is the worst fasttracker2 module ever lol” count…) and i also draw stuff

anyways hiiii

im also known as DOS_User on irc (libera.chat) btw, if looking for other ways to contact me (mostly active on channels #puppylinux, #oldcomputerchallenge, #unix_surrealism and #lolz_this_channel)

.dot would be pronounced “dot dot”

the future is just so bright! (boom de yadda etc etc)

ive actuakly used win10 alot tho. at school. the pcs run that (and i often have to do the troubleshooting because the rest of the class doesnt know shit abt pcs)

not saying i knw a lot, but at least i know something, unlike everyone else my age (im 14, born in the age of locked down devices trying to get you to bc tech illiterate, of the artificial stupidity hype and of tiktok cringe. instead i used things like dos, older windows versions and linux (still use mobile phones for like calls and stuff tho) and never (intentionally) went to the cringe and ai stuff either (even though its still shoved up my face whether i like it or not))

edit: and all nested parens are matched too :)

vegans apparently gonna have to eat air now

looks like that one soup dish in the fridge

i was about to post that specific xkcd when i saw your comment

this is why ill never use anything past win7 and for newer systems just use linux instead (yes im actually moving on from windows)

7 was the last good one :(

as someone who used dos and whose dad used win8, i can confirm xd

msdos intensifies they ought to be enough!

my old 2008 netbook is easy to force shutdown, just press it once and bam, no holding down. the buttons hard to reach tho (or you can always poweroff from bash/shutdown -s -t 0 from cmd)

my adhd ass thinks it should be 1

shomeone shouldve told bill gates in the 80s that in the future computers would be a bunch of idiots
