What do you call a newly de-programmed MS "Power User ®" from '


[Log in to get rid of this advertisement]
Imagine all those billions who have quite literally been programmed by, eg, endless years of Microsoft's UI design philosophy

Deprogramming* from that is a real thing

(eg "de-brainwashing" which, of course, makes no sense when you think about it.... brainwashing ---> clean brain --(rubs dirt on brain)---> regular brain)


Anyways.... Just another Regular Ordinary Normal Person who has broken their digital chains and jumped camp, from Northwest America, or "Burgerland" as the internet is wont to call it.

Not a total noob, although pretty solidly Windows exclusive over the last 25 years

Born in a time when you could easily identify the L33t H4x0rs (Hackers on Steroids)

they always had black-background IRC clients (mIRC with Invision)


My purpose on this forum is to get yelled at by the GreyNeckbeards as I try to figure out how to "Pimp" my Linux (No grey on my Neckbeard, not yet)
