Well, at least he’s dead. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I don’t know who that is, but if I could verify/clarify by looking at their post history, I’d probably block them if what you say is true… ohhhhh hey, looks like the dipshit himself commented on this very post like an edgelord and is conveniently the most downvoted comment.

Joke with a message aside, I noticed I already had downvoted the guy multiple times before. Looks like he likes to post ai slop as well and becomes a combative baby bitch when called out. Even better, some of the ai slop uses the “hUmAn BaD” trope. And I did indeed check up on and confirm the cropping out artist credit. He’s a combative baby bitch when called out on that, too.

Guys, look! He’s so cool! It was a post about how much of a dickhead he is and he still upvoted, what a Madlad(inc)! Even taking a stand against all those invasive ads like uhhhh… an artist’s signature on their own artwork. It’s basically the same thing as those overly sexual ads for dishonest mobile games cramming themselves into videos made for kids, amirite??? He definitely understands the ethical principles of advertising without lazy hasty generalizations.

Also, it’s such a great idea to comment on a post about your own shitty behavior. No one takes that opportunity to look at your profile to verify the behavior themselves. And it’s not like when you comment to identify yourself that you give a convenient link for everyone to block you without having to look you up. Truly some kinda 5d chess move. I tip my fedora to you m’sir.

Well, I worked as an apprentice for a bit doing commercial work. It’s pretty easy to hit up the local union to work as a wireman to get into the apprenticeship program. You’d be working full time with good benefits while getting all your classes in. Not sure how involved you’d be willing to get to “try out” electrician work. You might call one of the local electricians around to see if they’d be willing to let you job shadow. Some master electricians run off to run their own business once they get their hours and pass the test, so who knows what they’d be willing to consider, although I imagine a majority probably wouldn’t be too comfortable with the liability risk.

Either way, you could probably call the local union to see what they have for those curious, might let you sit in on a class or something, I dunno. I can answer some questions as well if you’d like.

Ha! I have yet to play cyberpunk, but it’s definitely on my list. As for anarchism, I think my move to Linux recently has been more of a solidification of my radicalization that was seeded by my love for punk and strongly cultivated by my time in the Marine Corps. I think the general public would be shocked by how many of us become Communist/Anarchist/Socialist because of our time in the US military.

Okay, tbf, I’m using cachyos as opposed to raw dogging Arch from the start. I’ve also used some Linux distros in the distant past, though I can’t remember the few outside of one of the early Ubuntu releases. Also, I’ve done a good smattering of IT work and programming throughout my life, so while I’m already fine with jumping into something having no idea what’s going on, I already had enough experience to not be too worried about things.

Well, for one there’s the increased skin cancer risk.

Certainly feels like a doomer windows user to hopeful anarchist pipeline to me as well.

Went from Windows directly to Arch and I just became an anarchist and (I’d argue) more masculine. Guess it’s less about Trans and more about becoming more true to yourself.

That’s almost TWICE what I paid for a fucking RTX4090 last year.

Ah yes, this will make a fine addition to my collection.
