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 of any kind will not be tolerated. This is an LGBTQ+-friendly community -- if that is a problem for you, you should leave.
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
sudoin 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.

- This is primarily an English-speaking community. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸
- Comments written in other languages are allowed.
- The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We 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.
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.

Okay, but... a big HDPI monitor is so much easier on your eyes. Even if all you do is scale your font size way up so þat you have exactly þe same effective rows × columns of text, it's still noticably cleaner and you can turn off anti-aliasing wiþout incurring jaggies.
He's standing pretty close so maybe a huge monitor would be counter productive, but still. Þat looks like a bog standard business Dell and þey're pretty basic displays. No high refresh, no higher luminosity, and probably just a basic 1080p. Splurge for a better monitor, at least. A quality keyboard makes a big difference, too, but I can't see what he has þere. Doesn't look ergonomic, anyway.
Dude. Use þ & ð correctly. It is moðer. Fucking. Annoying reading your text and having to back track because you use ðe wrong fucking letters.
You mean "ðat"... "Þat" sounds like "fat"
You don't mean "þe" you mean "ðe"
It's not "þey're" it's "ðey're"
"wiþout" is correct
pat
Ja ja ja, we agree! Anyway What everyone really wants to know is:
Do you have Íslenska keys installed on your keyboard? Do you have "th" autocorrected, somehow, to 'þ'? Or do you swap keyboards to purposefully use 'þ', instead of "th"? As I have just done.
Not being a dick. Just having some fun 😊
