To be fair though, thigh highs are really nice to calm down restless leg, so sometimes they actually are pretty good for programming

[–] Cris_Color 62 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Can't believe you'd suggest that's the only way thigh-highs would be good for programming, I'm insulted

[–] [email protected] 83 points 1 month ago (2 children)

They do also hook your brain up to the girl-matrix, allowing you to tap into the shared brainpower of all other thigh-high wearers for your programming. But that's common knowledge, so I didn't feel like I had to mention it

That explains it. I made it through the entire Eaternet, the bread board computer, 6502; all that. But pipelines and out of order instructions of the girl-matrix are just beyond my registers.

Yeah, sometimes it's more trouble than it's worth. The girls keep transpiling my perfectly fine Javascript code to Rust >:(

perfectly fine JavaScript code

L + Memory-Unsafe + literally JavaScript (do I need to say more)

i was forced to use java scrip the other day, i installed npm and it told me it had 8 vulnerabilities. it told me to put 'npm audit fix' to fix them. after that it said that it had 163 vulnerabilities now. again, this was a fresh install..

girl-matrix

That implies that thigh highs are girly, which doesn't make sense since they're just long comfy socks that go up to your thighs (as the name implies), anyone can wear them, doesn't matter if they're a girl, boy, or even NonBinary

Also anyone can be feminine regardless of gender and the way you act or dress doesn't invalidate that :3

(In addition clothes are just pieces of cloth, why the hell do we assign genders to them)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Exactly couldn't agree more, and yeah cloths are just cloth, it's really weird that we assign gender to them at all.

Fun fact: Spartan soldiers wore miniskirts, they're still considered the "peak of masculinity"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago

Yeah, I mean it makes sense since they give good air flow to keep you cool than shorts would, actually it's weird that more men in more modern cultures don't wear skirts and skirt-like garments.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Personally I like them because they're comfy and keep my feet and legs warm.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Do you mean restless leg as in when you're trying to sleep and your legs are going haywire?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's a thing that sometimes happens for some people where they get sensations that are uncomfortable when keeping their legs still, I never experienced it myself but I've read about it.

[–] PunkiBas 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oh wow! This has happened to me but never thought to look it up. Thanks for the link!

Happy I could be of help.
