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.

    Time to change the scheme

    v26.8

    Where are the distro makers? We need a distro with Plasma 6.7, kernel 6.9, maybe an optional lite version with xfce 4.20 and some meme wallpapers

    finally, the perfect plasma version for my gen alpha sister

    666 the sign of the christians.

    [–] Aneb@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

    So is 777 🧐

    [–] pupbiru@aussie.zone 28 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

    it’s like how the linux kernel isn’t semver: the number after the decimal point has a maximum of .19 and then the first number increments

    except that one time

    kernel version 4.20 is the only .20 kernel version

    [–] mecen@lemmy.ca 18 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

    They should skip to 6.9 for good measure

    [–] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 5 points 17 hours ago

    Pull a Samsung and just skip to 20

    [–] mlg@lemmy.world 30 points 1 day ago (4 children)

    Thanks to the XFCE development proceeding at couch potato speeds, I've been on this funny number version for a year and a half lol.

    [–] zane@infosec.pub 1 points 2 hours ago

    I wish a speedy kde6 upon you.

    [–] texture@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago

    considered switching for a day just so i could claim 4.20 status

    [–] boraginoru@lemmy.zip 4 points 22 hours ago

    If you've been on that version for a year and a half, probably nothing major is broken. And with software these days, that's invaluable πŸ˜‚

    At my speeds eh

    Nobody who finds 6 7 funny is going to be using anything other than a tablet that runs YouTube

    six- SEVENNN πŸ€™πŸ˜œ

    [–] Rolive@discuss.tchncs.de 26 points 1 day ago (1 children)

    I'm in my late 30s and find it funny..... please help.

    [–] texture@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago

    ive got bad news for you about your 40s ....

    [–] Clanket@lemmy.world 9 points 23 hours ago

    Late 40s, novice linux user, and I find it funny. I only know it coz of my kids, and the funny part is when they say it. You start spotting it everywhere yourself too, and in my head I shake my hands and shout 6 7....lol.

    [–] Rinn@awful.systems 32 points 1 day ago

    Nah, humans are great at pattern-matching, even just being aware that some find 67 funny is enough for you to start spotting it. I started finding some amusement in it just due to exposure from younger coworkers.

    Every generation has its words and phrases they use. Mostly to just annoy their parents-- Who had their own words and phrases.

    So if you're Hep to the Scene and a Real Gone Cat, Be cool and chill, light up a J because it's 420 somewhere. And enjoy 67. And the not to distant future, we are all going to laugh at Gen Alpha about it. And they are going to be confused about the Gen Beta's annoying slang.

    Personally I hope Plasma goes with 6.7 AND 6.9. The memes will just write themselves. And it will be glorious!

    [–] BlackLaZoR@lemmy.world 20 points 1 day ago

    I'll make a jump straight to 6.9

    Can military organisation just take addresses?

    [–] waldfee@feddit.org 22 points 1 day ago

    Even some companies have huge address ranges: https://www.xkcd.com/195/

    [–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 18 points 1 day ago

    DARPA kinda paid for the first TCP/IP implementation.

    [–] Tja@programming.dev 2 points 20 hours ago

    IP addresses are like oil for the internet, therefore a legitimate military target.

    if it causes even one eight year old to take an interest, it's worth it.

    [–] texture@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago
