  • The starvation of intimacy thing is the only reason I would consider a poly relationship because I've only ever been with one woman who had a sex drive close to mine. I could have easily gave it to 2-3 of any of the other women I've been with as often as they wanted without anyone missing out. I also am fair minded/hypocritical about it though and if I was was allowed to sleep with other people so can they and I'm not interested in a relationship with a woman who sleeps with other dudes so it wouldn't work. Also doubt I could meet the emotional needs of more than one at a time as I'm terrible at that. I guess that's what polygamy is for though, the man gets all the benefits and the woman is locked into it more. So that's shitty.

  • Did you buy hardware with Linux pre-installed?

    No, It's not like there's an abundance of options for this around. Especially if you want something with a graphics card and you want to lay hands on it first to make sure the construction isn't shoddy. I just did a brief search for laptops with Linux on them and options were extremely limited. This is an unreasonable expectation to have as things stand.

    Or is AutoCAD one of your everyday tasks?

    Not every day but often. I've tried FreeCAD but it runs like ass on every system I've tried it on, and by ass I mean so slow it's completely unusuable. I finished the entire design I was wanting to do in Fusion360 in the time it took to get a single rectangle sketched in FreeCAD last time I tried it.

    We all have different definitions of “everyday”, but I haven’t had an issue web browsing on Linux in ages.

    If web browsing is your only need then you can do that on a toaster. It's not a good metric to suggest switching to Linux for most of the people looking to get off Windows. Another example of a recent problem I had was I couldn't open pdfs off my network storage because the application didn't understand the SMB in the path. Then there's the fact that my secure boot enrollment randomly disappeared which somehow prevented it from booting regardless of if secureboot was on or not and I had to start from scratch with a new install just to get going again.

  • Yeah it's pretty frustrating to hear so many touting it as a replacement and then being met with hostility when you try to adopt it yourself and run into problems. Like I expect there to be some friction moving to a different system but when you're hitting roadblocks every step of the way on what to you are everyday tasks in Windows it gets tiresome quick and I haven't even tried to game on it yet.

  • It's not complicated. They're horny and frustrated that they can't get a woman to be interested in them. Tate tells them it's not their fault and that the blame lies with women and society, allowing them to not feel shitty about themselves or make any effort to improve.

  • Fusion 360 is a big sticking point for me too. I tried FREECAD but it ran like ass on every system I've tried it on. I'm currently dual booting but windows already wiped the secure boot key once which rendered the Linux os unbootable somehow even after I turned off secure boot. That was like a week after setting it up. I hadn't even got started on the laundry list of other shot I needed to get working on Linux.

  • you don’t actually need community support outside of whatever actual social circle you [should] already have in life.

    For me the interest was in having a group to talk with that was of the same mindset and knowing I wouldn't have to deal with people complaining about their relationship issues or changing plans because of spouse/kids. Which is not something I have in life. I have individuals who I can talk with like that but if we get more than 3-4 of us together someone's going to start bitching about relationship stuff.

    Yeah though the vibe of that community was exactly as you described and not what I was looking for at all.

  • I remember being excited and thinking maybe I had found my people when I first heard about MGTOW thinking it would be dudes who realized maybe dating wasn't for them and instead were just focusing on improving themselves. Then I looked at their subreddit and no, just a shitton of misogyny.

  • The bigger worry for me is that it seems a larger and larger amount of men are unable to sympathize with others.

    Not unable, unwilling. It requires them to be 'weak' and concede that they may be part of the problem. I say this as a man that had to work through some of this shit when I was young.

  • Call it whatever you want I'm not changing my opinion. There's plenty of shit that people I actually respect like and have recommended to me for me to watch. I don't need to waste my time on slop that was created for morons.
