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 users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • 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.
  • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • Β 

    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 remove France.

    Let us just briefly recapitulate the 27 most important compiler flags for 32bit x86 architectures.

    "...printers are files too, what the fuck????"

    files composed of pure, possibly sentient, evil.

    What blew my mind the most was the mouse and monitors were files.

    I am immensely disappointed that this isn't a real book.

    NO WAY! They've got an LFS one now?!? My son got a bunch of them for his baby shower two years ago, and he's been like super into them since he was like 15-18 months old. I highly recommend Bayesian Statistics; it explains the concept more clearly than any stats or data science class I've taken. His favorites are Optical Physics (because he's into rainbows), Bayesian Statistics (because he likes cookies), and Quantum Computing (because he likes the word "data", probably because he hears me say it in work meetings).

    This is actually photoshopped and just a meme. But I am amazed that those books you mentioned apparently seem to be real.

    and Quantum Computing (because he likes the word "data", probably because he hears me say it in work meetings).

    Translation:

    work meetings = breakfast or lunch

    See that look on the baby's face, pure terror. The correct response.

    Woa! Does that mean you've already covered the basics of C? If they ever happen to get bored, try some elementary boolean logic, binary arithmetic or electricity.

    That kid is gonna be such a homeschooler.

    My kids all daily drive linux. I don't treat it like it's weird or special. It's just the preferred OS of the house.
