If you don't tinker, you're not really into tech. That just makes you a normie end user.

>>105937796 (OP)
Cope however you want but we all know the rope is inevitable for (You).

/g/ really should be divided into consooming and developers/tinkerers boards.

>>105937796 (OP)
Anons who use that term are pathological shitposters, stewing in their own hatred and frustrations. I might not like the endless bickering over distros for example, but I'll just hide the threads instead of insulting everyone.

>>105937796 (OP)
Once /g/ stop tinkering, all devolved into consoomerism

There's three basic classes of human
Consumers, who have no creativity at all and just exist
Tinkerers, who are curious about creativity but are not yet creative
Creatives, who actually create the world we live in

Tinkerers are somehow the most insecure class, because unlike consumers and creatives they're not satisfied with who they are. They spend their entire lives trying to prove how smart they are and how good they are at their job or interests, despite not actually being able to create things themselves

>>105939452
There are three types of people in the world: those who are good at counting and those who are not.

>Implying that isn't the only thing /g/ is good for
NGMI.

>>105939557
It's not. There have been plenty of good threads and productive conversations on here. And most shitposts are in fact bad, only a small fraction of them are funny or interesting.

>>105939452
I consider myself a tinkerer and yet I can't relate to anything you have said. I tinker because it's my passion, not to prove anything.

>>105939677
That just means you're one of the good ones

>>105939614
>There have been plenty of good threads and productive conversations on here

>>105939688
I never encountered the supposed bad ones here. However I did encountered passionless people who can only consoome and they are the biggest cancer here. I rather surround myself with other tinkerers or creators, no matter if they do it for the show or just because. It's always better than brainless consoomers who do not contribute anything and often hate on people who actually are passionate (probably jealousy)

>>105937796 (OP)
tinkering rules imo. its funner to be casually explorative of a subject and mess around than it is to be formal

>>105939722
When you're creative the worst people you encounter are always tinkerers

>>105939729
>if I take it too seriously, women won't have sex with me
Come on. Who are you kidding?

>>105939735
I never seen a creative person complaining about people who tinker around. I did see a lot of them complain about people like OP is quoting tho

>>105939452
Remember that's always better to try and fail, than to do nothing

>>105939747
>but women
This is probably the worst kind of poster. Not only passion less who doesn't tinker, but also stuck in a place he doesn't belong to. A pinnacle of failed normalfag.

>>105939735
Creative people are tinkerers.

>>105939751
You're seeing one right now

>>105939769
Prove that you are creative. Post your work.

>>105939765
No, tinkerers are people who are just learning to be creative
Tinkerers tinker with things other people have created

>>105939747
>thinking about women
lol/lmao

>>105937796 (OP)
I created a general for tinkering if someone's interested >>105939818

>>105937796 (OP)
Tinkertrannies are people who fuck with shit with no clear goal, end, product, result or even a learned experience to show for it.
Tinkering for the sake of the act is how you become a tinkertranny.

Personally I have no qualms with tinkering or changing something that you use everyday, but if more time is spent fucking with something then actually using it then you have a problem.

>>105939763
Name 10 programming books.

>>105940005
I don't read many programming books. I read Coldwind's "To Understand Programming", "Physically based rendering", some book about OpenGL, and the Rust book if that counts. I could easily google random books or stuff like SICP etc but what's the point?

>>105940037
Are you illiterate?

>>105940043
Why?

>>105940051
Can't even name 10 books? You must be a DYEC.

>>105940066
No idea what that means.

>>105940066
NTA but I've been a programmer for 30 years and never read a single programming book, reading is for brainlets

>>105940080
some of them are worthwhile but a lot of them are written either by socially inept retards who can't form sensible sentences or self-important educationfags who make concepts more confusing than they actually are as a flex

>>105940080
>I've been a programmer for 30 years
kek, the fact you mentioned that is how I know you're bad at it.
>reading is for brainlets
You should do more of it then.

>>105940208
>kek, the fact you mentioned that is how I know you're bad at it.
this makes no sense

>>105939705
It's not my fault you only click on the bait threads.

>>105940208
NTA, but your point doesn't make any sense. Reading programming books is not really popular among competent programmers. If you are not a retard, documentation or specification is all you really need. Programming books are often aimed at beginners and laymen. You are going to learn more things by looking at other people's projects and reading tech błogs, unironically.

Consoomers need their own containment board
Those fucking shabbos goys ruined g

>>105939452
People tinker to understand how things work not to prove anything. You have to take shit apart to be able to reform it your own way. Tinkerers are creatives

>>105939769
You're a subversive gigafaggot

>>105939930

Very bad bot! Shut down!

try to free jump off 100m cliff surviving

>>105940624
You have already bragged about being creative. Just show something to support your claim.

>tinker trannying with software or hardware and inventing something new
Good
>tinker trannying with GNU+Linux and a mpv config for 5 hours before watching tranime
Bad

Maybe it's the tinkering that stops the suicidal thoughts

>>105942165
retard

>>105939747
>women OUT OF NOWHERE
sorry my loyalty belongs to 2D

>>105942165
please do invent something new saar do NOT tinker with our certified prodcuts like window

I have two rpi and tinker enough with them plenty

>>105939452
and the fourth class, subhuman retards who make posts like this that they think come across as thoughtful and sound but is actually complete armchair bullshit that has no validity, and believe me when i say this fourth class is by far the most insecure.

>>105940066
he said name ten programming books not ten books in general.
>>105939776
people can be both, i'm not sure what this logic is where you can only be a creative if you create every single thing you encounter or use, and often times in order to create something better you have to tinker with what is already been created.
>>105942125
he created this thread and half the posts in it, is that not creation enough for you?

what the hell is wrong with you retards, half of you talk like you have ever accomplished a single thing in your life and you're some kind of authority on anything. for your own good, stop larping as if you have been successful in any capacity in your lives.
