I've wanted to go to penguicon or linuxfest or something similar.

My appearance is that of a chad though, so I feel like I'd be judged as having low intellect or possibly a poser.

The only techie friends I have use windows.

>tfw ill never have a linux lan party with us ricing our desktops and sharing gpg keys

It's a lonely life.

Basically how I felt.
College is honestly the best time/place for those sort of lan parties. I miss that shit, I wish I'd gone to more of them while I had the chance.

Linux is just the tool I use to work and I don't have feeling toward it. I would spent the entire weekend alone playing Star Break completely drunk instead of such meaningless meetup.
>>
The internet has made face to face human contact redundant. Stop lving in the past.
>>
>>61859822
Agreed.

I focused too much on what my normie friends were interested and didn't branch out into the fields I'm interested in now for fear of being labelled a "autist".
>>
you mean GNU/Linux OP
>>
>>61859914
Shit. I should have said that to my friend when he first suggested the meet-up. Would have been good bantz.

>>61859861
t. robot

>>61859888
I just didn't spend enough time with other people outside of my two best friends (who I guess were normie-ish, at least for the school we were at).
>>
>>61859861
This is actually true. A Linux meetup would mostly just be for fun, actual development stuff could be done virtually.

I've wanted to go to a LUG for a while but the nearest one is pretty far from me.
>>
>>61859888
I'm beginning to think the same way. I'm getting tired of clubbing, drinking, and general normie stuff.
Tbh, I'd rather just chill with a bunch of dudes playing vidya and shit. Where the hell do you autists hangout at school so I can join you?
>>
>>61859861

I agree, not only redundant but also objectively worse in just about every way.

1. cant block/ignore people and watch some youtube while you wait for non retarded people to come
2. danger of getting doxed because you literally give them how you look
3. you have to physically move there and do stuff

the list goes on and on, there is a reason why amazon is objectively superior to any physical store and the same applies to physically meeting ppl in general
