    look, if you’re using the terminal and your distro shows a lot of hacker-y text on screen when updating, then yeah of course there’s a chance that less tech-literate people are gonna think you’re hacking into the mainframe… still the story is definitely exaggerated


  • Begin banana metaphor.

    Bananas are great. If I ate a healthy amount of bananas a week, I’d be happy with my banana consumption. I’d enjoy bananas.

    However, if I ate a lot of bananas each week, let’s say 80 🍌/week (that’s 16 bananas a day, from Monday to Friday!), I would HATE bananas, regardless of how much I previously enjoyed them. With so many bananas a week, I’d probably suffer from malnutrition and related health problems.

    End banana metaphor.

    I don’t think it’s possible to be happy when working 80+ hours a week, even if it’s something you used to enjoy. “The dose makes the poison.”
