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.
    • 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. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache
  • 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.
  • 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.
    •  

    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 thought for sure, for sure this was bullshit. For sure Linux doesn’t have a touch command. What could it possibly do.?

    Changing timestamps and creating empty files..

    Of course, that makes so much sense. 🤔

    [–] double_quack@lemm.ee 24 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    It does make sense! When you modify a file, you do "things" on it, you write it. So the minimum you can possibly do to a file to modify it, is "to poke it": to touch it.

    I mean I’m sure that’s the logic or something but..

    Man it just feels wrong. Like the sonic hedgehog gene feels wrong. You know?

    [–] double_quack@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    Hahahha, I just learnt about that gene a little while ago and thought the same: that's an stupid name for a gene. How would you name them? (the gene and the command)

    [–] MonkeyTown@midwest.social 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    Imagine being a doctor telling a couple their fetus died because of a sonic hedgehog gene mutation, tho. (This does happen)

    Like, it won’t matter in another few hundred years, but culture is difficult right now.

    Makes me wonder if the romans did meme shit like that. They graffiti shitposted and whatever so..

    Luckily nobody asks me what I would name shit because my pets are testament to my complete lack of creativity. 😊

    [–] double_quack@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

    I would call the gene fingerer

    Ah Donglegate, good times. Even funnier that the guy who got fired because of this lady’s tweet sided with her like a meek little bitch.
