Roughly 50% of transgender and/or non-binary people are software developers and roughly 50% are furry artists, so it makes sense we would be more wary of AI.
I use arch, btw.
Trans nonby software dev who dated a furry artist, my disdain for AI knows no limits.
I use Nobara, btw. (Is Arch good I've never looked into it)
It can be a tiny bit involved to install but if you know your way around Linux already it's perfectly doable. The arch wiki is a great reference for MANY things and it has a dedicated page with installation instructions.
I like that it's lightweight because it comes with the bare minimum for a working Linux install and everything on top of that must be explicitly installed by you. I also love pacman (the package manager). It's never borked anything for me and I've yet to be dropped into a dependency hell in 6+ years of using it.
I got in a dependency loop one time. It was my own damn fault 😂
Sysadmin is an adequate pastiche, you don't need to specify the exact queer animal person they are.
Eeh we're not all furries it's more like 1 in 4 of us.
If the remaining three aren't out, I'm not going to take that choice from them :p
Wait, if I'm not a software developer, then I must be a furry artist 🫣 The things I learn about myself on the internet... xd
Well, some are both software developers and furry artists, which I guess frees you up to be some other, hidden, third thing. Which I'm going to guess is either bass guitar player or train driver?
driving trains sounds interesting, I pick that :D
