Hacker News Reader

The amount of effort people will go to avoid working a job and buying a Mac or installing Windows.

"Working a job?"

What do you think the readers of this space do? What is your vision of this "non-working" hacker news reader? I legitimately can't imagine anything here but a 90's era stereotype.

Ride their tandem bikes around "SanFran" with raspberry pi's up their asses. Complain about how normal people don't use Firefox anymore and that it should be rewritten in Rust. Try to convert their FreeBSD thinkpads into modern DAWs.

The only person complaining here is you, oh the irony.

> Making a joke = complaining

hmmm

I think it’s a comment on tinkering vs working. A lot of people view alternative OS’s like BSDs as a toy for tinkering but not being productive. I wouldn’t know because my entire 7-figure income comes from my basement rack of Plan9 machines…

You do realize this is Hacker News right?
