where’s golfing?
Lmfao
Let’s see: I love reading, I am learning French, I paint, I write, I enjoy a bit o astronomy, I am an archer, and I have learned how to blacksmith.
Yeah this is just a list of activities with no correlation to attractiveness whatsoever
Edit: let me be clear, I’ve learned to blacksmith the cheating way with propane or natural gas AND the good old fashioned hand cranked coal fired away meant to coat your lungs with soot like a real man. And make sure you bring the borax cause we gonna do some welds
They probably just didn’t ask about RTLSDR, otherwise it would be quite prominent, I’m sure.
RTLSDR feeding into Home Assistant. That’s the money shot.
“Yeah girl, my bathroom lights come on automatically when you walk in. I’ve even set them to 30% brightness… After bedtime.”
If only my wife truly appreciated me lol
I think my wife was mildly amused by it at first (I was playing with X10 automation long before she came into the picture), but quickly started to like it because it meant that we always came home to the lights on, stuff like that.
And there’s one button to shut off the outside lights and “evening” lights in the house when we’re going to bed.
Forklift certs ain’t nothing compared to amateur radio. When you get that personalized license plate too… They’re going to be climbing over their boyfriends just to hear you ask for an RST from the guy you bounced to with 10m.
So, lots of Linux fans should be fairly attractive. Like we read (the docs), know a few languages (at least bash), occasionally write scripts, travel (between distros), and archers became a huge meme 🙃
But you annoy users with unreliability and difficulty to repair and time to implement. UX is important. You can’t have home improvement work sites lingering.
Seriously, has no one considered/been on the wrong side of the PAF (partner approval factor) curve?
Haven’t tested macos myself (and ain’t going to due to progressing hardware enshitification), but windows isn’t any better, in my experience.
The only kinda benefit is that you often don’t need to install it and are likely accustomed to using it. But then come problems. First, you need to remove a metric ton of crap by both vendor and Microsoft, so much so it’s often easier to install a clean msdn image (which negates the benefit of windows being preinstalled). And if you happen to remove more unnecessary crap than expected by Microsoft, you also get weird and hard yo track issues.
Then reliability… The last time I needed it, w10 bsoded (oh, yeah, the famous undifficult to repair “smth died, and we want tell you what exactly”; so much better than logs in Linux, am I right?) 5 mins after install from an original msdn image, and after reinstalling touchpad and trackpoint didn’t work properly, for example. So, that’s actually worse than any Linux distro I’ve tried so far. But idk, mb I’m just unlucky. Also, crowdstrike 🙃
Then the usual way to install software on windows… Which sucks hard: heck, even Slackware is better in that regard, and it kinda says a lot.
Soo, basically leaves us with “windows good 'cuz I know windows”.
Release the full list.
I want to see the red flag hobbies
The number cero hobbie: don’t be ugly
Expect /r/3dprintingincels (general place for incels that do 3D printing) and /r/dark3dprinting (3D printing nazi memoribalia) going live.
I wonder where “gay sex” ranks
See, there’s just one weird trick to overcome this, but fellas gotta be comfortable with a dick in their ass. Or mouth, that’s a solid place too.
Getting high and playing video games?
Pretty sure those made the other list for least attractive
Edit: the other chart
Wtf, I know how obnoxious stoners can be, but have these ladies even met a cigar snob ? They’re worse, and it smells worse too !
Wait, ppl seriously consider drinking a hobby?
Ok says here MTG 28.5% but what about YuGiOh?
I’d make both a pretty great, and kinda shitty male…
How can reading be no 1 most attractive and comic books are on the unattractive side of the list?
I think it’s collecting vs reading. I’m a lady and read comics, well graphic novels, I don’t buy the individual issues. Half my bookshelf is graphic novels trade paperbacks. But I do not collect, trade, sell, I don’t think of them like that, they are for reading and enjoying.
Collecting I can see as an unattractive trait because it’s too close to hoarding.
Whew that was a close one. I started reading comics again a few years ago and only have been getting TPB or HCs. Who has space for boxes of singles?
If you’re genuine: reading brings to mind books, and people might see books as intellectual but comics as geeky/childish
I like that Debating is rated at 30.?% but there’s a separate category for “Arguing Online”.
I guess that being a Master Debater who comments on people’s posts “Debate Me Bro!” doesn’t count for the slightly more preferred category?
…11% of women find men who watch pornography attractive?
12% of women find men who argue online attractive?
23% of women are into cryptobros??
Plenty of women watch porn themselves. These 11% are not hypocrites.
I think this is from a survey, so keep in mind that its people reading and answering questions. Some number of people always interpret it a different way or misread.
A lot of cryptobros claim to have gotten rich, or seem likely to be flashing their money around. If someone is throwing money around, why not be somewhere you can catch some
Watch porn, or make porn? I know a few friends who would find latter attractive. Not so much the former.
Wait so making porn is hot but watching it isn’t? That’s crazy to me
Yeah. It’s kind of like being an actor vs just enjoying watching movies.
These lists make the most sense if you just imagine the stereotype the hobby exudes. Woodworkers are rugged, work with their hands, have a bushy beard and smell like fresh cut wood all the time, meanwhile someone who’s hobby is watching porn is overweight, hasn’t showered in a week and will have unrealistic expectations of you while struggling to perform in bed himself. But someone who makes porn is buff, squeaky clean and knows his way around a women’s body.
They just hate when men have fun >:(
If I wasn’t already partnered this list would bother me
I‘m multiple times on both ends.
The only balance I have in my life.
lol at crypto
WTH is manosphere? Afraid to google 😅
Manosphere is (to my understanding) Andrew Tate, Joe Rogan, etc. Basically content that promotes men acting like Neanderthals. Why any percentage of women found that attractive is beyond my comprehension.
Are you sure it’s not the part of a car engine collecting exhaust from all cylinders into a smaller number of pipes? Because I can use my ignorance of that and play up my environmental credentials as owning an EV
Andrew Tate, Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson. Basically online misogyny. People who blame women for everything, or think that there’s such a thing as an “alpha” man, or who use the word “cuck”. Basically incels, supposed “men’s rights activists”, date rapists and date rapists in training, etc.
Arguing Online: Women are just not ready for Skankhunt42
Cosplay: Yeah I bet it’s equally least attractive the other way around lmao
Ok, but most of those shouldn’t even be considered hobbies. Like poker can be a hobby but if your hobby is just “gambling” then you probably have an issue. I guess your hobby could be porn if you’re in the kink scene and into making porn or something, but while watching porn is ok, if you consider watching porn a hobby then you may have an issue.
Textbook Lizardman Constant right there at the bottom.
To be fair, I enjoy both these things but I don’t know that I would classify them as hobbies, more as something I do to wind down. I can see video games going into hobby or even profession territory but THC is just a medicine for me. A hobby is something that needs to challenge me, in which I learn things and get better at it.
I make mods for video games. It actually pays out too, I make a few hundred a year. It’s basically computer parts money lol.
Does that count as a hobby? I’m afraid to ask, women are pretty judgy about this stuff.
So axe throwing is a good date idea! Got it
I think this is cool. Many of these are accessible and cheap. Most of these are “do you get out of the house and spend time on something” which is obvious. Looks like most hobbies are attractive, like even anime and cosplay have 1 out of 4 women who is into that and finds it attractive.
I also love the huge correlation between the top 15 and what men think is the top 15, the main difference is that men didn’t think hobbies were attractive enough.
I’d love to see the reversed list for what men think are attractive hobbies for a woman!
“Women love when i show them my extruder nozzle”
Don’t think this applies to lemmy
