3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of

4. No recent reposts

I was neither so I ended up being a number cruncher for a solar company instead.
When a linux user is born, a random path is chosen. They will either become a hot femboy, a bald polo shirt guy or a domestic terrorist.
So anyway there's a feee blahaj over there.
This is just the lastest thing, it used to be the old IT guys and the ones with a beard, long hair and a metal shirt.
Working for a solar company sounds pretty cool though. Building renewable energy is building the future we need.
Kinda but I'm on the existing site side of business, the only new projects I even sit in on are expansions for existing customers (which is relatively common because it's municipal brownfield solar, which means most sites have at least some room to expand)
I have stuffed my office full of plushes from Billie Bust Up among others
I really wouldn't be surprised if half the office suspected I was a furry
