Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    Wake up sheepole The fact the guy likes the Shining and retro video games does not make him a good person, let alone someone who respects your freedom.

    I mean if you don't know what the software in the headset that you own does... WTF?! It could be doing anything: What data does it collect? What do they do with that data? Even if you read and understood the license, they could be going against it without you ever finding out. Not even thinking about your right to modify what your headset does, or distributing your patches...

    I'm using FOSSasis, and I hope you guys make the switch as well. It's free (as in freedom) and decentralized: meaning if you don't like what a Server is doing (that what we call Worlds in FOSSasis), you can make your own, and you can still visit any Server that has not defederated from you. There are also plans to make it possible to transfer accounts between Servers. The economy is much fairer: every transaction is on the blockchain, so you know there is no manufactured Credit inflation.

    As for the stupid Easter Egg Hunt: let the slaves fight for who is going to be master... In FOSSasis we are all masters of our own destinies.

    BTW FOSSasis is actually a recursive acronym. It stands for: FOSSasis's OASIS's Superior System -asis
