- 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
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.

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.

400MB idle? He needs to debloat his system man
Truth hurts.
I run arch btw
Its like the famous saying...
-
How do you know someone runs arch?
-
Because they will tell you about it.
This is too close to reality to be satire
The line between reality and satire is often thin.
But not quite as thin as the system requirements needed to run Linux /s
Welcome to the whole comedy of this guy. You cry, you feel it and it hurts.
"now my machine run games" π₯ π₯π₯ π’ π’ π’
This is what I want to be if only I don't have social anxiety.
*heavy breathing on the bus* β~Linus~ ~Torvalds~β
βWhat?β
βActually itβs βwho.β So way back when..β
This is very close to how I act towards my dad whenever he complains about his Windows 11 updates and performance.
I put my dad on Mint years ago. No more complaints!
Hah, mine too. Astonishingly little support needed since, we stopped talking
I love his videos. They are so accurate.
I wish my computer runs 400mb idle. Unfortunately it doesn't. Too many tabs and shit open
Then that's not idle
So like only essential tasks open?
Idle would be with nothing open
I feel personally attacked for some reasons
This is hilarious!
Satire is someone making annoyingly good points, annoyingly? Ok
This is meant to be a caricature of a Linux evangelist, not a 100% accurate portrayal of a Linux evangelist
it's good satire because there are valid points thrown in, but also some completely irrelevant ones
"now my machine runs games!"
~wheezes in linux~
Myaaah!!
It's so perfect. Like a nerdier version of the guy who ties women to train tracks.
Lmao
