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.

    And this is why Linux needs age verification! Won't somebody please think of the children?!

    [–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 58 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    Actually, maybe it would be better, if certain people thought of the children less.

    kill is a command.

    love, happiness, and peace are not commands.

    You can totally find love using command sudo apt install love. It's a game engine.

    happiness is a Perl module inside libdemeter-perl package. Let's not install Perl modules, there lies insanity.

    And you can find peace in a whole bunch of packages, it's an icon of the peace symbol.

    Love (proper name LΓ–VE) is the game framework that Balatro uses πŸ˜‰

    I've got search queries on "how to kill orphaned child" or something like that. I'm sure it set off some flags.

    forced consent

    $ no
    bash: no: command not found
    $ yes

    $ yes n
    n
    n
    n
    n
    n
    n
    ...
    

    I kind of want to go back in time and make it so that the original yes always printed the first letter of the name it was called by. That way you could symlink any name you like to it and it would do the right thing. Called as no it would print ns, etc. The optional parameter would still be there for longer strings or alternate uses.

    The reason time travel would be needed is that there's bound to be, or have been, someone who has done something weird regarding symlinking yes that relies on it always printing y when it has no parameter, and the name trick would be a breaking change.

    Or make your own package? call it affirm (more wholesome), write it in Rust (of course), and take on yes.

    bash kill output:

    kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] pid | jobspec ... or kill -l [sigspec]

    fish kill output:

    kill: not enough arguments

    [–] jj4211@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

    With fish, you just need to fight more to earn that kill.

    The penguin ain't messing around no more.

    Sources for the images I slapped together: The penguin is from an article on the Indianapolis zoo, and the rest is the cover image from John Wick taken from the Lionsgate page on the movie.

    [–] imjustmsk@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    Kudos, for not making slop using a clanker.Β 

    [–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    It's more fun making the crappy photoshop images myself (Though I use GIMP not photoshop because fuck Adobe)

    Not to mention there's no ethical or moral concerns when making them

    [–] imjustmsk@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

    Other than Ethical and Moral concernsΒ 

    1. AI generated images looks like shit.

    2. Images you edited yourself has its own charm to it.Β 

    3. You get more control over whateber you create.Β 

    I hate when people say AI is just a tool like pencil, while it's trained with billions and billions of stolen and pirated images and all one do is type in a couple prompts which is far from whatever human creativity is capable of by itself.Β 

    [–] manxu@piefed.social 14 points 1 month ago

    Ha! On Ubuntu, the OS of Love, you get:

    manxu@ubuntu:~ love  
    Command 'love' not found, but can be installed with:  
    sudo snap install love  # version 11.2+pkg-d332, or  
    sudo apt  install love  # version 11.4-1  
    See 'snap info love' for additional versions.

    Have you heard about Our Lord and Savior: Jesux

    Also, we are seriously considering changing some fundamental OS features. The idea would be that function calls and features suggesting evil and otherwise pagan ideas would be changed.

    abort(3)

    kill(1)

    references to "daemon"

    [–] kamen@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

    Cue the joke about killing children with a fork.

    [–] osanna@lemmy.vg 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

    That’s not nice

    Peace was never an option.

    All you need is kill

    Holy shite, you have no idea how much I adore this. Thank you.

    [–] luciferofastora@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago

    killall would then be "Seek and Destroy", systemd/init is "One" and booting Windows is St. Anger: Why would you voluntarily do that to yourself?

    [–] YourMomsTrashman@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

    sudo dnf install love!!! Also known as the Balatro / Blue Revolver engine
