I feel targeted by this. Also how did you get into my house?

I feel there should be a classic leatherman utility knife in here too lol

Older doesn't necessarily mean worse. Dependability is important for sure.

Omg, I loved that calculator.

l use debian and l dont like this ? (!)

If somebody can still fully operate with this stuff, I'm jealous.

It means they've figured it out and they're immune to almost all of the bullshit.

There's bound to be some bridge, somewhere, but even then, that only needs to be minimal. These people are heroes and have a special power.

That is where my wallet went, you dick!

"I'm in this picture and it's quite OK here."

My car is a 20 year old shitbox, my bike gets new brake pads and a bit of random lubricant on the chain once a year and other "maintenance" only when parts fall off, and my stereo is a mix of hand me downs from my dad's college days and some eBay home theatre stuff that got sold because it didn't support the newest HDMI bullshit.

Oh, and of course it is a Thinkpad, thanks for asking.

Just the other day, a friend of mine running Arch tried to install something, which resulted in him having to do a full system update, including fixing several "that should not happen" s. Meanwhile, every few years I spend an evening update to the newest stable, and never had bigger issues than the color of some icon being unfamiliar.

The "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" starter pack

It's a '96 manual transmission for sure, wallet's maybe 10yo, never cared for consoles and have some manuals laying around.
I've replaced some stuff with my smartphone though and prefer Devuan, Slackware and Gentoo. Of course Thinkpads.

I feel called out. Except my mechanical watch is a vintage USSR Podeba. And my 2001 car is a Lexus.

I use Debian Stable and I don't have anything pictured there. Anyhow, it's getting late and I still have wood to chop and basketmaking to do. /j

I will brook no argument regarding Hamilton field watches. Buy one, wind it, wear it. Start living a better life.

May someone explain the audio (or video, idk) cabinet stacked like a 20u rack? Why so many devices? What would each be for?

I am in this picture and I feel awesome

Shifted to Debian from Ubuntu a few weeks back for my core infra. It could be a placebo but Debian feels way more snappy.

I’m in this picture and quite frankly it’s a great place to be. Everything either just works, I know how to fix it, or I at least know what is broken and not worth fixing.

Though that is a terrible style of air pressure gauge. Get a good dial one with the tube.

I went from cutting edge tech excited nerd to literally this picture, and life is better.

Judging by this posi I should probably start using Debian stable

Is that a seagull watch?

Where’s your 25 year old leather belt that has wear marks near every hole? Documenting your progression into middle age like tree rings.
