"Linux is so difficult" No, you just decided it is because you're put off by the thought of using Google for 2 minutes to learn how to install a distro. It's not hard. I did it with no experience over a year ago and all my stuff works fine. Learning is good, and easy, and free.

Shio @itsshio.bsky.social · 09/10/2026
The world has developed a culture that takes offense to being told to learn and I honestly don't even know the solution to that.

Yeah like, Linux has a few things that could use better support but at this point any possible issue you have has likely been encountered by someone else who tells you the exact single command to paste that fixes it. Linux wants you to fix it, Windows refuses to admit there's a problem

Shio @itsshio.bsky.social · 09/10/2026
Deeply funny that people insist Linux requires more fixing than Windows. Linux requires slightly higher computer literacy sometimes, but I've actually run into FEWER issues while using it because unlike Windows, Linux actually does not want your experience to suck horribly.

There's like 3 edge cases where Linux can't do something Windows can. Not sure what you're even talking about with "ready for primetime" because my Linux install does everything my Windows install could do but faster and less annoyingly. It is more than equivalent these days.

Huge fan of Discord's terrible "Halloween sound pack" that turns itself on without your permission midway through the day and causes your notifs to sound uncanny to the point where I thought a DM was an error notification due to the sound. Very awesome and cool. That it does that. Great.

Ben 10 Protector of Earth is honestly a solid game ngl. Still holds up as a decent little action-adventure game 20 years later

Tl;dr Remilia Scarlet is a really bored theater kid (which fits with how modern vampire stories evolved to be extremely dramatic with very grandiose villains) but if you only play the games you don't get to properly understand that

Shio @itsshio.bsky.social · 15/09/2026
Also the second everyone says "Oh, we're on the moon. I guess we can go home" she suddenly yells "We're here to CONQUER the moon" because fundamentally Remi knows stories need a villain. It's also why I think she caused th6 despite being able to go outside with a parasol. Even if she loses, it's fun

Shio @itsshio.bsky.social · 15/09/2026
This is me with Remilia because my favorite character detail of hers is that she's always driven by boredom or curiosity even at her own expense, which is shown most strongly in SSiB when it's revealed she knowingly allowed Yukari to manipulate her. But no one ever reads print works, so...

Y'know I'd never want to stop people from drawing shit, but maybe if you're going to draw extreme taboos that could deeply upset people you should, I dunno. Learn how to use tags, so people can mute those tags. Just a thought.

Anticheat or intentional dev hatred (looking at you, Epic) are basically then only reasons you’d need to yeah

Best solution is just to keep a Windows install on part of your disc in case you absolutely need it, as far as I can tell. I occasionally mess with Unreal Engine and doing so on Linux sucks so I just briefly boot into Windows
220
Shio @itsshio.bsky.social · 21/02/2026
Highly recommend doing so, there’s a lot of pretty beginner-friendly distros and you can always dual-boot with Windows if you need it for something (I did this at first but rarely need to boot into Windows at this point)

thanks @jtp.bsky.social for the boost resulting in my phone turning into a perpetual motion machine for the last hour. i will convert more of the masses to linux in your honor. billions must try.

getting a lot of feedback telling me that i *shouldn't* shut the fuck up and that people *want* me to post more about linux?! this has never happened to me before

it’s crazy to see someone eagerly posting about linux and the responses being “wow maybe i should switch to linux”. the planet is healing, together we can retake computer from evil

Shio @itsshio.bsky.social · 21/02/2026
my personal opinion is that jenny tightpants should post about linux even more because people are actually switching now and that is a staggeringly new reaction to someone talking about linux. anyways switch to linux i did it last year and now my computer doesn’t suck.

Honestly that’s Discord’s fault more than webp’s, webp is great when it’s actually supported lmao

Shio @itsshio.bsky.social · 17/11/2025
My personal favorite used to be > Download emote > Attempt to reupload emote > File type not supported Because Discord used to simultaneously convert all emotes to webp but also didn’t actually let you upload webp emotes for the longest time

"average person takes 1000 photos a year" factoid actually just statistical error. average person takes 100 photos a year. Photos Getty, who lives in cave & takes over 10,000 each day, is an outlier and should not have been counted

Yeah like. A lot of it is very clearly performative and not actually concerned with making meaningful positive change. It’s just another way to throw insane wealth around to produce more insane wealth.

People will defend him by saying "oh sometimes he like gives water to african kids" but then he'll talk about how he has no life or personality outside of content. And then he'll make Squid Games 15, a production with more physical and mental safety risks than actual Squid Games.

type of white guy that yells slurs at video game characters alone in his house because he knows no one can hear him

Shio @itsshio.bsky.social · 22/10/2025
Like we went from "lol it's the thing they say in Star War movie" to "Why are you saying this as if it's a very different word. Why are you inventing other slurs. Why is that one dangerously close to a real slur that isn't even very common which implies far more knowledge than I'm comfortable with."

I feel like clanker was so non-serious until the exact wrong type of people discovered it and then it stopped being "haha lol insulting AI because it's robot and has no feelings" and became "okay this person said clanker and it's 50/50 whether or not they're joking or they really want to use slurs"

for what it's worth: if you're in any, *any* position to switch to linux right now, this is a good time to start looking into it. the ecosystem has evolved so, so much over the past few years (for both gamers and creatives), and i've been happily running windows-free since february.

It's a level of apathy that doesn't even financially make sense especially because we've seen companies who DON'T have massively queer consumer bases try and pander to the far right and lose absurd amounts of money over it. More than apathetic, this comes across as just downright lazy.

Shio @itsshio.bsky.social · 09/10/2025
It's honestly a bizarre move. Framework is in a sphere of tech dominated by minority groups and their supporters, alienating those groups in favor of supporting software made by bigots makes no sense. I'd imagine the average alt-right nazi is FAR less likely to buy a Framework than a queer person.

Me when I post about my terminal butt cancer and someone reacts with lolepiccat emote (it’s their default like emote and they have no idea it conveys something wildly different than a normal like)
021
Shio @itsshio.bsky.social · 08/10/2025
See the issue with this is that lot of people are Stupid Idiots who have no sense of tone and will use custom default reacts that indicate literally nothing aside from “I wanted silly image as my react :D” so you’ll have a serious post and someone’s default react will be a goofy image of an animal

Wireback is obviously kinda bad just because that’s wayyy too close to a very specific and rarely used slur, but clanker is like. Nothing. That’s not a real anything. It’s closer to cracker than anything legitimately bad

Shio @itsshio.bsky.social · 05/10/2025
Anyone genuinely acting like calling a non-sentient piece of tech a “””slur””” is bad is either addicted to internet drama and desperately wants controversy to get mad at, or is such a poisoned techbro that they believe their AI waifu is sentient and loves them and that you’re hurting her
