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.

    I'm waiting in the Linux lobby for Haiku to be ready.

    [–] juipeltje@lemmy.world 6 points 12 hours ago

    Red pill. Tried the green pill but it was just too painfull having to still interact with windows period. Nuked it a few weeks ago. Screw the anti-cheat games lol, i'd rather not play them if that's what it takes to be free.

    No TempleOS? The Lord shall smite you for this wicked heresey.

    [–] muhyb@programming.dev 19 points 14 hours ago

    TempleOS doesn't have a pill. It's just bread and wine.

    The correct spelling is DBMS. The picture is accurate though.

    [–] hexagonwin@lemmy.today 10 points 17 hours ago

    freebsd ftw

    [–] turbowafflz@lemmy.world 12 points 18 hours ago

    I installed plan 9 yesterday

    [–] lime@feddit.nu 12 points 18 hours ago (3 children)

    i need more weird ones. haiku, nextstep, inferno, oberon, alto exec, os/2 warp, z/360, vms, maclisp, colorforth...

    [–] BartyDeCanter@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 16 hours ago

    The Haiku one should be the yellow one.

    [–] ruuster13@lemmy.zip 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

    Don't forget Buddha Linux... Which still pretty much just exists as a concept. Neither real nor not real.

    I should make a Schrodinger's Linux.

    Every command you enter has a 50% chance of being ignored, and the output of all commands is hidden and come with a 30s delay, so you never know whether the command was actually executed or not.

    [–] notsle@kzoo.to 2 points 6 hours ago

    @OwOarchist
    With bash. All things are possible.
    alias cat=schrodinger.sh

    #!/usr/bin/env bash set -euo pipefail if (( RANDOM % 2 )); then echo "meow" else command cat "$@" fi

    Zion can only manufacture so many pills.

    [–] lime@feddit.nu 5 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

    you can just buy empty capsules and install on them

    [–] RomulusCornflakes@lemmy.world 3 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

    You could even attach capsules onto capsules and boot the first capsule as a live environment in the second.

    [–] lime@feddit.nu 3 points 15 hours ago

    i think that may exceed the maximum recommended dosage.

    For a second I thought this was about vertical scrollbars

    What the fuck is a reactOS?

    [–] FernPlant@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

    An open source os built off the windows nt kernel. It doesn't necessarily work the best, not necessarily the most ready, but it's very cool.

    [–] db2@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

    Nothing you'd actually switch to.

    [–] IntriguedIceberg@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

    I came here to say this, verbatim. I don't really care for an answer though; my morning has been ruined enough already.

    [–] otacon239@lemmy.world 16 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

    Y’all need to take some time away from the internet if a random meme about an open-source operating system you’ve not heard of negatively affects your state of mind.

    [–] olafurp@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

    He probably assumed it's an OS based on react js

    [–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 7 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

    I can't help but feel like I inspired this post a little

    Linux + everything else in Virt Manager

    Red or Black

    [–] Maxxie@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

    Does this imply freebsd will make you want to kys

    [–] RomulusCornflakes@lemmy.world 7 points 16 hours ago

    No. You die in Linux, you die in the real world.

    [–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago

    Unfortunately I have to green pill because lightburn dropped Linux support
