Missed opportunity
The gun should have been labeled !!
It needs way more gawdy neon color palettes.
I swear half these people with blogs pick the most aggressive bright pink and greens when building their websites from scratch for the first time and then just stick with it!
Weird corner of the userbase you submerged yourself in
Most people I come across just wanted a phone that wasn’t made by Apple
This is the meme I needed. Thank you!
It's either "how it looks" or "what it looks like". You can't mix and match.
I have yet to meet a furry or trans IT person IRL. Is there just a higher concentration of them across the pond? Or is bullying a bigger issue there maybe?

Visit any comic or anime convension and you'll find the former in spades.
As to the later, idk. I've got three cousins who came out as Trans in the last five years or so.
There's definitely been a thaw around sex and gender over the last twenty years, and I can't help notice a certain number of "butch lesbians" and "sis men" just saying "fuck it, I'm the other gender and straight" and going all the way.

Bullying certainly. But also there hasn't been a large and active transgender community until fairly recently. People coming to terms with what being transgender means and how to self-actualize it wasn't possible in the homophobic atmosphere of the 20th century.
We'll see how long this revolution survives in the current century. Germany also had a boom/bust of transgenderism in the 1920s. Hopefully, Trumpism/Starmerism isn't a bell weather for that kind of reactionary reversal.

That's either phrased poorly, or a frankly insane take on gender.
Friend's FtM dad transitioned in his late 60s, after it became more socially acceptable. Before that, he was just a very masculine presenting lesbian. Now he's a guy - a straight man in what is effectively a trans-het relationship.
I know a single person in a nearly 2 decade career. But I've seen this stereotype posted repeatedly. I think it's just niche, loud, sections of the internet wearing blinders, being in echo chambers, and wishful/fantasizing thinking.
I work in tech and there are a lot of trans people in the industry, 10% of my company are trans. I do live in a country where it is safe to be trans person, so maybe people are more open about it.
wouldnt it be hardware from the 80s?
People who think the idiom is "how x looks like" rather than "what x looks like", which is more correct.
Ya, Linux...
Marxist/Leninist hardliners is funny to me because FOSS kind of set me on the path to become a socialist. (Although I'm a libertarian not a ML)
Hint: :q!
