Damn those socks look comfy. Im a dude who will wear leggings, buts thats because theyre great. But as cute as thigh high socks are, unless you have like a garter belt system how do you keep em up, are high socks even good for something besides look? Im seriously asking, because i just dont understand.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago

I have little laces to keep them tight! :3 they're sooo great for when its cold and also so comfy and feels so nice to rub ur feet and legs together when wearing them -v- and snuggling! :3

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

there's a solution that I discovered recently: leggings that look like thigh-high socks! I just discovered the technique recently with this video

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

mostly I just think they're cute as hell, but they can be kinda nice in the colder weather, or like I have pants with big (aesthetic) rips in the legs, so the thigh highs keep me warm hehe. They fall often, but it's not too bad, with me being a college kid who is sitting all day lol.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Oh those stickers are amazing. Where did you get these? Does the vim one say -vscode-? Great stuff.

Also, super cute! 🥰

iirc one of the sources is https://github.com/mkrl/misbrands

[–] [email protected] 16 points 7 months ago (3 children)

also is there a better way to upload multiple images? I'm new to Lemmy lmfao

[–] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago

There isn't

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

I've been using imgur for additional photos, but I'd like to know what the lemmy community recommends in general.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Cute 🥺
Love the GNOME Files on Plasma

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

i hate the kde file explorer. i use gnome files, xfce4 terminal, i honestly might re-install onto xfce4 at some point

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

you don't have to reinstall to change the DE, right?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

no, but I probably will anyways, I partitioned my hard drive in a weird way so that my home directory is wayy to small, and cornered by my root directory, unable to expand lol. Probably gonna back up most of my home folder, reinstall the system, then redownload the home files lol

[–] [email protected] 12 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Love those socks!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

i know im so jealous 😭

[–] [email protected] 12 points 7 months ago (1 children)

The only sticker that makes sense is sudo rm -rf command... (⁀ᗢ⁀)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I don't even think that command works anymore.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Iirc you need a --no-preserve-root or somenthing for it to work.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Can’t tell if serious or trying to get people to type it in to prove you wrong….

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

They're right. The modern versions of rm have a safe guard and you need to type --no-preserve-root to force it to delete /.

You can also just do sudo rm -rf /* and let shell expansion do the rest.

WARNING: DO NOT RUN THESE COMMANDS. THEY WILL DELETE EVERYTHING ON YOUR ROOT PARTITION.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

The fact that the second one still works is a bit terrifying.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago

Couple of those mockup stickers induce some anxiety. Not the Java one though.

[–] lazyneet 9 points 7 months ago

Very happy for the content. I had no idea that queer posix intersectionality was officially a thing. Arch too. You mean business.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Literally the "arch user" meme

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

average arch user: femmy, cute, shaved legs, thigh highs, and anime girl desktop, also very gayy is important

I didn't realize JavaScript revisionism was allowed around here.

Linux starter kit, Linux, socks and laptop with a nipple,

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

That's as lemmy as you can get

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

This is disgusting.

How dare you sully the Vim logo!?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Lulz. I have that same sticker pack!

Shot on an iphone?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Android actually! Can't stand iPhones lol

Beautiful wallpaper, gorgeous legs. What are your tastes in music?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

thank you hehe! I like a lot of indie rock stuff (Big Thief, Sufjan Stevens, Kishi Bashi) and also the more calm, gay indie music (Madilyn Mei, Cavetown, Girl in Red, Mxmtoon), and then I've been getting into video game soundtracks for studying music, personally really into Outerwilds, Celeste, and Theophany's Majora's Mask remix albums right now.

I also listen to pretty much anything under the sun that sounds new or interesting. It needs to break the mold or else it isn't fun to me haha. Folk is also really good too!
