Oh shit, a multi boot diagnosis.

I disagree. I use Linux but have depression. I'm upset that y'all left me out of this photo

New distro coming to shelves near you: Depression Linux

Akshually it's called Autism Spectrum Disorder
-
I can't speak for all of us, but I prefer "Autism" as a blanket term (that we hopefully all understand covers a wide spectrum anyway) over "Disorder". Yes, I get that we deviate from the neurodevelopmental norm, but "Disorder" feels condescending to what I perceive as simply a different way of working.
I also understand that some with higher support needs may differ from that perception. My opinion is not universal.
On the other hand, I'm perfectly fine with calling my ADHD a Disorder. Shit's chaotic as fuck.
-
I appreciate that. I have a partner who is on the spectrum and has ADHD as well.
I was only joking in the pedantic style often associated (rightly or wrongly) with autistic traits. ASD is the official DSM-5 term. Of course being a diagnostic manual, that focuses only on behavioral deficits. As I understand, the DSM gets plenty of criticism because like you mention, it omits all the interesting ways folks cope or even creatively use abilities like hyperfocus for positive outcomes. But on the other hand, I'm not sure successful behavior requires any psychological treatment, so that may be unnecessary to include in the first place.
Anyway, I think this is one of many situations where simple terminology doesn't capture the full nuance of reality. So apologies if that came across as crude.
-
this is why neurodivergence simply works in some cases. I do think ADHD is a bit of a disorder but ASD often grinds against it creating something more interesting.

As an autist can confirm

BeOS, Haiku OS, Temple OS, NeXTSTEP, OS/2, DOS, AmigaOS(ok, that's just a single furry right now).
-
There's a furry using AmigaOS?
.......... What for?

It's a pretty safe for work comic. I haven't found a citation, but supposedly it started in a Amiga magazine before moving online. It also stopped in 2016, so no one is using Amiga now I guess.

-
Myself using Linux and home and having to use Windows at work... Seems accurate to me....
-
Me using Linux on one computer, Mac OS on another, and Linux on another.

I'm also depressed though.
-
20 year Linux user here. Definitely more depressed than autistic (but not claiming to be 100% NT).
Also I just got given a macbook for a new job. Feels weird.
-
20 day Linux user here and my Windows depression has been replaced with Linux confusion & wikis.
-
Yeah, it's the bloody-mindedness that keeps you going
-
-
Is anyone ever 100% NT/ND?
-
-
Well, can't argue with that, my doctor agrees.
-
Crap... I use all three
-
-
windows and mac are real kinky.
therefore we should ban them from work.
-
-
Can confirm, am depressed
-
I got so depressed it seems I developed autism to solve it.
-
also can confirm; am autistic

I was going to ask when has it ever made sense to run Windows, but then I noticed how old those logos are. Carry on!:-)
What are the current logos then? Did Linux's change?
Windows: Just four blue squares
Apple: Same shape, no colour whatsoever
Linux: π³οΈββ§οΈ
That one no.
tux now has competition with a fox
I do miss Windows 95 sometimes...
I mean, compared to Win 3.1, and before that, DOS...
