I hate programming I only do it because I'm good at it and because it pays well

I bought an AMD cpu because Intel is too expensive here. At least I can admit im a poorfag.

I have a non-trash gpu just lying around unconnected because my mainboard is bugged and will not boot with it in the slot.
The mainboard is still on warranty, I'm just too lazy and addicted to replace it.

I'm just a failure at everything. I couldn't get freelance web development work to save my life and despite nearly one thousand applications sent in for remote positions, not one single call. The only development job I had was some garage startup with the CEO and his step-sister who oversaw project management and had no clue what she was doing.

I live in a small town with no money to my name and literally no jobs. So, I just sit around in my underwear all day with no family left in an empty house drinking myself to oblivion and hoping I don't wake up every night I lay down. I'm sure the first response will be "lol just move" and then I would normally reply "how do you do that with no money and no work" but it's just so tiresome.

I can honestly say I tried.

Before I knew how to computer, I put DDR2 stick in DDR slot. It didn't work and two pins on DDR stick burned out.

I shill various gnu/linux based operating systems on Jow Forums yet I fucking hate all of them because they can't compete with windows

I own the hd600.

one girl asked me to fix her pc i recovered her deleted files and installed a trojan on her pc
i fap to those things every day and i get fresh stuff every day

Learn how to draw and start to commission furry shit.

I've never owned a smart phone before , mostly for money reasons, not because I'm trying to be a hipster or paranoid about data collection.

Based and beastpilled

I ruin my fun in vidya by digging in the data files and uncovering all the secrets that way.
Last time it backfired really horribly when I discovered that the author of a porn game I enjoyed is a filthy pedo. I still feel like I did something horrible, like it's my fault I didn't know.

I'm a 31 yo zoomer that is taking a first programming class in C because I hate my job as a paramedic. I'm good at it but it pays shit. When I'm not at work I'm in my undies at home breaking lubuntu on my old Dell D630 while listening to Still Corners.

Eat shit you Reddit cock sucker. You actively make this board worse by posting. Do us all a favor and stop posting.

How do you do that (both)?

I love having multiple monitors surrounding me displaying the same shit. Makes me feel powerful like some sort of tech super nerd. I'm currently at 5 monitors right now and I want more.

while not able to draw
draw stuff
read/watch tutorials about drawing stuff
As for the furry stuff the first step is probably to get a deviant art account and uploading stuff, and writing that you do commissions.

>displaying the same shit.
Y-you mean you just mirror it?

Don't give up, user. Perseverance is the key. Go through the material again and try to program something. It doesn't matter how many times you fail or how slow you move. Just approach it with a relaxed state of mind and keep programming!

Is it that easy or is there real talent to compete against?

I use nano to read most text-based files.

I've been trying pretty much consistently since I was 14 years old and wanted to be a 1337 hax0r. I tried reading books, I tried online tutorials, I tried taking classes at the local technical school. To this day even reading a simple bash script makes my brain hurt because I look at it and think wow, I never could have come up with that. I've never had IQ testing done but I'm guessing that, combined with my terrible maths grades puts me well below average.

Sure

wtf
this is not a sin man
I do the same lol

I don't know, I just based it on what I've seen in some cringe threads years ago, where there was a screenshot of someone getting paid way to much for some mediocre art.

I think women are as capable as men in STEM fields but spend too much time whining about equality.

That's just plain wrong

Really? I thought the "correct" way to do it was like, using cat | less

Beyond security (using systemD compared to not using systemD), I see little point to distro wars.
I've used KDE Neon, Antergos, Artix and Gentoo. They have enough benefits and downsides between them to the point that arguing for which I like best feels very silly.
Plus, these benefits and downsides are very trivial.
Like, lacking bleeding edge packages? Seriously? That's why you HATE Ubuntu?
Lacking a graphical installer? Seriously? That's why you HATE Arch?
Not having as much binaries? Really? That's why you HATE Gentoo?
It gets old, as if we've forgotten the actually bad operating systems.
It seems that the Windows shills spawning on Jow Forums for the past half year have pushed our civil war further in to madness, so we can forget they're threat overseas.

how do furries have so much fucking money.

Girl brains are linear, Man brains are dynamic.
I guess you're right, STEM are just robots working for the master

Just less, no need for cat
It has all the shit you'd want from nano, but also has text search with /, n and p.

Only problem is you have to know how to draw.
Maybe they all draw and sell their furry stuff.

Holy shit I learned something new today, thanks user

I aced the technical interview and still did not get an offer because I can't communicate in a way that gives other people confidence in my skills, which is probably due to my autism, which isn't romanticized at all in the real world.

I'm 27 studying software engineering and have no idea if I should lean towards programming jobs or Linux administration.

And I was thinking the engineers designed those socket for idiots like everybody for don't have those errors
Stupid engineers

I larp hating on redhat, fedora, systemd and flatpak, but I actually like them.

I stole Jow Forums memes, post them on reddit, and they give me lots of upvotes, thinking that my memes are original

Regardless of the veracity of this, the issue lies in the fact that the data is then in an unnecessary addition of places. Trusting Microsoft is one thing, trusting the middle men (bots) to not leak said data is another.

Pure evil. You disgust me and impress me with your confidence to the same degree, simultaneously.

The thing is to not let yourself overwhelmed by these kind of thoughts, thinking "i can't even understand a bash script" or "i'm not smart enough for this". You might not be Dennis Ritchie, but you can get decent at it if you try a bit harder and believe in yourself instead of putting yourself down with this defeatist attitude. You might be slower than most people, but so what? Run at your own pace and believe in yourself!

>Fuck around with programming 1 year before going to CS college. Learn more in first 4 months of CS college than I could of possible imagine and can program my own things now.

>Lose all interest in college and just want to program on my own and get a comfy job in web dev or soft eng and pursue my hobbies on the side.

I don't know what to do anons, despite web dev being a meme here on Jow Forums, it's really a comfy job that gives you a lot of freedom, clean office and unlimited food, while being able to work from home once or twice per week with a nivce salary. Is this the redpill to comfy life?

I use Windows 10 and I also hate programming despite being halfway through a cs degree

I used to believe this but after 20 years of trying and the simplest things, things I've gone over dozens of times still look like gibberish I think just accepting that I'm a brainlet is the most realistic option. What's funny is I once went in for career placement assistance. They give tests and counseling and job listings to people who don't know what they want to do or what they might be good at. The guy who was handling me basically said he had no idea how to handle my case. Apparently, my spacial awareness is off the charts, like rocket engineer levels but my maths scores were so low that they bordered on retarded. He basically said he didn't know how to help me and never returned my calls.

If you have good spatial awareness you could do stuff like rescue diver or firefighter.

Do you have some sort of a disability?
Apparently there is one that covers being shit at math.
Some first world countries might give you autismbux for that.

I still do not understand the concept of using linux and still think Windows is the best OS

For me, I use it for fun. I'm a recent Linux convert, although I still use 8.1 on my desktop for work-related programs. I started using Debian 9 on my W530 and its honestly a lot of fun configuring the OS to look and function exactly how I want it to. Some people want to be completely in charge of everything their computer does, while other people just want on OS that works with minimal user input. It's all a matter of taste.

neck yourself

While this sounds fun on paper, it's not for most because people lack valuable knowledge sources and way to learn about the OS in order to be able to actually do what they want with it.

I would use Linux if they would just fucking put the damn thumbnails in the file picker. Not even kidding. It's the only thing keeping me away. And yeah, I know KDE has them, but I don't particularly like it.

>just install a file manager that needs 100 fucking k dependencies that i'll never use

Linux Mint Cinnamon doesn't have this problem

Have you tried KDE5? I wasn't a big fan of KDE4, but KDE5 is awesome.

What gave it away?

I don't like gnome, but all the other options are garbage. xfce is nonstop screen tearing, kde is the exact opposite of gnome's feature cutting with too many options and busy ui, deepin/pantheon are too simple and mac like, etc.

I use arch but don't do anything special with it. I just use desktop shit.

I unironically like and use snaps.

Why is the experience still so shit?

I used ( and liked) windows me and Windows Vista. Society works like a hivemind and the placebo effect was strong on that one, they were just facelifted and renamed windows XP and Windows 7.

You wont like this, but here's a suggestion:
take the shittiest job available that no one wants to do for the next year and save every penny.
Then you'll have money to move somewhere where you can work in IT.

Also, don't spend your money like a sperg and track your expenses. I had a friend who said he never had money but he was working at apple earning 3 grand a month while living with his parents having zero expenses. Guess what he was spending all his money on? Eating out, I shit you not.

I'm incapable of understanding how some sane people legitimately find programming fun. Autistic people I can understand, but 100% otherwise normal people who are into programming?

How do you spend $100 a day eating out?

fucking shoot birdshot into your skull faggot
god i want to kill redditors so much

I shill suckless while using gnome 3

I have a 2700x system and I am not poor

i'm ok at coding, i feel this way about math and shit, i really want to get into machine learning with tensorflow n stuff but god damn these math's are just too hard. guess it's just a retard filter eh?

I hate Linux. It may work out of the box, but as soon as you try to do anything different with it, it becomes such a huge pain in the ass. Finding a file manager that has a search bar, finding a file manager that also lets you open stuff as root, figuring out how to display battery percentage, figuring out how to move icons in the taskbar, wondering why the fuck there is a normal trash bin and a root trash bin, and so on.
And nothing is worse and you google for your problem and read that the devs actually haven't implement these features, because they think nobody needs them is just infuriating.

you got this fren

Spending *all* his money on eating out is obviously an exaggeration, but it was the single biggest chunk of his expenses.
He usually spent 20 € eating a meal during work and after work he also ordered food for around 20 €.
If he simply cooked meals for himself he could have saved all that money, which accounts to a lot in a month.
>$100 a day
He frequently spent 400 € on weekends drinking out and eating, irish pubs are expensive as fuck. Also smoked like a pack a day which cost around 10 €.

Long story short, he's fucking terrible with money and he even managed to get himself into debt somehow.

This sounds... Really enjoyable in a nostalgic sort of way. But I never experienced it, I was born too late to experience it. But that's something I want in my life. I'm working really hard to find the inner hacker in my heart.

I've been looking at the same fucking write-up and code for the past three days and I don't understand any of it.

i m affraid that i ll never be able to make it in real so i m not even trying to do
all day long i just listen to music and watch shit

My knowledge of Fortran is shit but I still say I understand what the hell is going on because I'm desperate for a job

uwu it'll be ok fwend
we can be losers together

I'm 32 and have never even had a real job just some odd jobs here and there but really nothing right now I feel like such a loser my anxiety is such a bitch.

I'm using Windows 10 for the last 1.5 weeks because I'm bored to setup my customisations on Linux
Windows 10 isn't so bad either (it's pretty shit though compared to a finely tuned GNU/Linux system)

I bought a MacBook Pro, shortly after buying an iPhone XS Max and AirPods.

I think programming in Starbucks in comfy.
I like to show off massive Dell precision to make macfags there insecure.
