Can someone tell me where all the trans FOSS devs/enthusiasts hang out IRL, I need friends ๐ฅบ
~Signed, a lonely trans FOSS enthusiast (not a programmer sadly, maybe I just need thigh high socks...)
FOSS devs/enthusiasts
hang out IRL
I'm laughing but it hurts ๐ญ
Trans dev here, I hear that hacker spaces aren't bad places to look. I wouldn't know though, too shy to actually show up -.-
Hey! I'm a trans FOSS enthusiast studying computer science and I hope to be a FOSS dev sometime in the future.
I stay inside pretty much all day. In terms of hanging out irl, the closest I do is vc lol. It actually would be nice to hang out with someone irl though.
Alternate version:
> use the internet
> it works
> thank you furries
(for whatever reason, there seems to be an overrepresentation of furries in network admin roles)
I've installed a lot of software.
Not once did I give a fleeting fuck about the meat around the brain who made it.
Nice brain, though. THANKS, BRAIN!!
Shout out to the two Legends I've encountered while learning about or building projects:
Christine Lemmer-Webber is the lead dev of Activitypub
Leah Rowe is Libre Boot
I don't plan on actually doing this, but would this be appropriate to send to a trans coworker who I work with, but don't actually have a relationship with outside of work? We don't have any history of sharing memes or anything.
For context, she's one of the senior devops engineers at my company
Personally, I wouldnโt want to receive a meme that assumes some level of familiarity with me from a co-worker if we never had that relationship before.
Why should your choice of operating system have anything to do with any other aspect of your identity?
I think it's identifying the person as trans that's the issue. That's my biggest hesitation; I almost guarantee she would appreciate the meme. But if I were to actually transition (egg_irl) I don't think I would want people who I wasn't very familiar with identifying me as trans even if it was obvious. I just wanted to hear some people's thoughts here
I would say get to know her more first and then see what kind of humour she has.
If you have to ask, no
> hate ur job
> follow the white rabbit
> escape the matrix
> thank you trans woman

I don't get it, can someone explain?
There seems to be an over representation of visible trans women among independent open source programers.
I might be an old millenial, but I didn't get the joke
What does Linux have to do with lgbtq+? I've only ever seen the connections on this website but I still don't get it.
That community is missing a few screws, at least they're amusing themselves
