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 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 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.

    ironically Debian is the straightest OS, it's named after the creator and his girlfriend who became his wife and he had kids with

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Murdock

    He named Debian after his then-girlfriend (later wife) Debra Lynn Roundy, and himself.[4] They later married, had three children, and divorced in January 2008.[5]

    Although obviously, straight people can make things for lesbians/lesbians can use things made by straight people (and they often do!)

    EDIT : I missed the obvious joke : Debian > ebian > (L)e(s)bian(s)

    I use Linux Mint at work and Pop!OS at home. Sorry to disappoint.

    Gentoo requires you to grow the cotton, process it, and then knit the thigh-highs yourself

    [–] not_IO@lemmy.blahaj.zone 24 points 10 months ago (1 children)
    [–] grue@lemmy.world 17 points 10 months ago

    Nah, it's both of them. The difference is, Gentoo gives you a cotton gin and a loom.

    [–] Malix@sopuli.xyz 45 points 10 months ago (1 children)

    damnit, ordered the wrong color socks AGAIN. Wish the arch wiki would have this documented.

    [–] Ooops@feddit.org 33 points 10 months ago (1 children)

    Arch comes without socks by default. It's up to you which ones you ~~install~~ buy.

    [–] Malix@sopuli.xyz 16 points 10 months ago (2 children)

    I used ~~archinstall~~ archsockbuy

    Those legs look weak. What Linux is this?

    [–] twack@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago

    That's just straight up Unix, the mother of it all.
