Mine‘s getting so accustomed to cold showers that I a) absolutely do not mind cold water for swimming etc. anymore and b) could not enjoy warm or hot showers anymore. They just weren’t nice at all.

b) could not enjoy warm or hot showers anymore.

Grew up without hot running water and I can relate. It's only a problem in some hotels really, where the showers don't get cold enough.

My weird flex would be being so accustomed to command line that I don't know how to use well, and get frustrated by, GUI applications.

Setting environment variables in windows annoys me irrationally.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That is definitely a skill issue

idk, in linux its just adding a line to my bashrc or running a command, but on windows its opening settings, going into a specific page, pressing the advanced button, pressing the next advanced button and then choosing edit system environment variables.
