    she/her

    me, a broken man

    Some mixed signals here… she should double-check gender.nix

      She was cis until she started using Nix.

        You can just recompile your gender. There’s nobody who can stop you.

        Most trans people would say they were never cis. But if she’s the exception, the breakup could be explained as a result of the transition if the wife is straight.

          Bad terminology on my part, I wasn’t sure how else to phrase it!

            I mean, if you were intending it as a joke your phrasing works just as well.

              “Gender assigned at birth” would be more accurate, but way too clunky in a sentence.

      It is a copy of the Reddit post, I doubt these two accounts are the same https://www.reddit.com/r/NixOS/s/7zuK1ifOOo

      Either way it’s just a funny post, nobody would actually go through such a hyper focus leaving their wife behind…

      … right?

        Christ, I knocked over my home theater system when I tried to transition to Mint and absolutely did spend a night sleeping on the couch over it.

      I believe it’s because they’re not using flakes properly. One of them is relying on an outdated channel, and ends up using outdated pronouns.

      I guess that’s why the man is broken
