pros
>There are some gentoo users and a lot of them know their shit so I might graduate from my Arch babbie grade.
>I guess I would learn some things
>Maybe my first attempt at "networking" which might lead to opportunities.
> some of them are using thinkpads and I guess that there's some x201 user so I might have a free tech support coupon.
>they look like they are happily welcoming new members.
cons
>It's actually quite far from where I live. like 1h30 to get there, maybe more.
>I never fit in a linux group before. I'm not that "nerdy". My hobbies don't interest then and my linux skills are pretty much "install arch and rice openbox" tier.
>The cringe : There is dude that non ironically wears a fedora indoors. Another skinny long haired one is likely to be a brony. There's also a self proclaimed """king of nerds""" that protects his """geek cred""" by tries to bully those with a faint of charisma.
>There is no female member despite the misleading description they provide.
>I don't know if I'm ready to actively be a member of an activity that is not held in my uni campus.
> train fee would be expensive in the long run and I might be better off by saving the money to finally have nice hardware and get my "linux lessons" by lurking /g/ and IRC.
