A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Coming on Lemmy and complaining because there are too many Linux users is like going in to a brothel and complaining that there are too many hookers (lemmy.ml)

Speaking of, I recently switched to Linux, do the thigh high socks just show up or do I have to order them myself?

If you use arch you have to start knitting

And with Gentoo you have to spin your own yarn before the knitting 😁

And with LFS, you need to breed, raise the sheep and then shear them yourself before you get to spin and knit the socks........

But you can tune the specifications of the yarn to theoretically make the socks up to 2% more comfy. In practice your tuning efforts will make the socks less comfortable and tear more easily.

You unlock them once you enter your 10,000th terminal command.

I just checked my history, 21110. And there was more that got cut off before I increased the history length. Are they supposed to come each Christmas or something because I don't have them yet.

Just read the Arch wiki. It's clearly explained there. Fuckin' noob. Thread locked.

Does repeating commands count or do they have to be entered manually?

It's rather a r9k kind of deal

You need to be a naughty slut that deserves a spanking for that to appear.

You get a choice of free maid/nurse/lab assistant outfit as well.

Yep, as written in the manuscript:
"Stallman's Sluts and Torvalds' Thots,
shall all receive some thigh-high socks."

This should be on a metal plate somewhere

You have to find the shop and pay some gold, but when you equip them you get +2 programming and can be combined with BLÅHAJ for +2 gender euphoria.
