There is a common circle jerk for sure. Humans gonna human, it happens everywhere. However the question was honest if a bit rude sounding.

It isn’t really about edginess. People tend to continue believing in whatever religious preference (or none) they have unless something convinces them otherwise in whatever direction.
To an atheist’s point of view, it legitimately doesn’t make sense why someone would be religious when what they see is nonsense. It is a genuine confusion and not necessarily meant to be rude.
This isn’t just an atheist thing that happens, religious people can often not understand why someone would ever choose anything other than their religion. It doesn’t make sense to them either.
I was thinking the same thing, this is just too specific to not get it mentioned.
I would argue that they are financially motivated to keep proton and Linux gaming going and not just out of the kindness of their hearts. They are competing with Microsoft and their store. When your competition has complete control of the OS you need to run your store on, you are at the total mercy of them. They can’t afford not to keep on their current track. Especially now that they are successfully doing it, going back would be a death sentence.
Achievement Unlocked: Mention Linux in a computer related thread!
100% of tech related posts have this achievement.
(Relax comrades, I too am a Linux disciple.)
If you are lying about this, then that means you only tell the truth. However, if you only tell the truth, that means you can’t lie. So you cannot say you only lie on Lemmy comments because that would be a lie and therefore not the truth. So if you are lying ERROR ErROr ErrOR PAroDOx deTECteD!!!
It is the only thing I can associate with Wayland and Nvidia. What other possibilities can there be?
Looks like you were right, she definitely feels frustrated about being doubted and made to feel stupid. Hasn’t given specifics yet, but I am sure I can get her talking at some point. She said she appreciates being able to bounce ideas off of me without worrying about the above. Good start I would say.
If this shit is what women have to deal with constantly, I am not surprised there are so few of them in my field. Why can’t we all just get along?
They are implying Carlson works for Russia and they have canceled remote work so he has to come work at his place of employment in Russia.
Yeah, if I had to guess, she is currently trying to figure out what she wants. Or I could be completely wrong and the girl is just hungry for Linux knowledge. Which is also great because we need more of those kind of people.
Lol, I was hoping someone would get my reference.
This is a very good take. She had told me that she feels imposter syndrome and that she enjoys talking to me. It would also explain some of her behavior. As I work in the tech field, just about everyone has imposter syndrome, so I reassured her that she is great at her job and she’s got this. She really is good at it and I hope she knows it.
I don’t think she is using me in a malicious manner, I mean, I did technically offer that I would teach her. I was just surprised she took up the offer.
Although you reminded me of something. A week prior to me meeting her, one of my coworkers was learning under her when he went to go help out. Apparently a guy came up to her while this happened and asked her out. She turned him down for the reason it would be inappropriate for her to date someone where there is this power dynamic.
My coworker told me this and that might be the nail in my coffin. However, it is also possible she just used it as an excuse to not have to deal with turning him down more harshly. I could believe both things. Hense more confusion, why make an exception to hang out with me then?
I agree.
That doesn’t even make any sense, I don’t work for her. I just offered to help. Even if she did need to talk to me, she would use teams chat as electronics are not allowed in the area, only work laptops. I didn’t mention that earlier because it didn’t seem necessary.
I also am hourly so nobody calls me when I am not working. She also isn’t using it for that purpose either.
This girl is playing 4D chess while I am trying to figure out how to get in the door.
I appreciate both of your advice.I think you are right about the confidence thing. I will need to increase that. I just don’t understand why she would set the idea her doing her own thing and then immediately abandoning it if she didn’t need to do it in the first place.
If she is willing to ask for my number and meet me on my off days to chat, it is not a stretch to want to see what her motivations are and if they match my own. In our case it would likely be more frowned upon than firable. That’s a chance I am willing to take if she is.
Also we don’t really work together so she is not my boss. I just happened to help out for a short time. She may never see me at work again for all I know.
She is a lot of fun to be around so I would still want to be friends. Pulling the bandaid off is probably the best course of action. Although I am wondering if I should try to increase her fondness of me first to improve my odds.
Congrats, you hit the nail on the head. I am panicked because I have never met someone like her who also happens to be heavily interested in similar topics as myself. In my panic to not fuck up, it has a real great chance of leading to the thing I was trying to prevent.
Fortunately, I am self aware enough to not cause problems while talking to her. I am actually fairly decent with my social skills as I think that’s what got me here in the first place. It is the time in between seeing her that has me worried. My mind starts to wander into intrusive thought territory.
Sci fi or not, I kinda want them to get this one figured out ahead of time. It is kinda like assuming that a convicted felon could never be President. You wouldn’t think that rule would need to exist because come on, how could a country possibly want to elect a convicted felon? Its a completely ridiculous notion that could absolutely never happen.
