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. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 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.
    •  

    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 think you mean "sudo pacman" not "apt", wow. fake linux (gendered diminutive).

    [–] sporkler@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (7 children)

    Wait, is linux gendered or pacman?

    [–] melpomenesclevage@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    no, no. saying the meme was made by a fake linux boy/fake linux girl/fake linux kid, because they forgot to say sudo and used the package manager from probably debian (apt), rather than the one arch uses (pacman).

    I was being a tedious linux elitist asshole as a bit.

    [–] sporkler@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    Ah, you're all good. I feel rightfully shamed by my past self from giving up slackware in the early 2000s to go almost exclusively Ubuntu specifically for the package manager. I used to would have felt my adult self was a fake linux kid as well.

    [–] melpomenesclevage@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    well, crucially; it was a bit. the actual that-person is an insufferable piece of shit. but like not in the same ways as im an insufferable piece of shit.

    [–] sporkler@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    My past self was also and insufferable piece of shit in a completely different way that my current self is. I don't believe it is our use of linux that drives this particular personality trait as much as the underlying humanity that we share.

    [–] melpomenesclevage@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

    yes, truly: linux use is inextricably tied to humanity, and the beauty/horror of the human condition.

    the great literary conflicts: man(in the old english sense that needed a prefix to gender it) against nature, man against man, man against 'god', and choice of linux distro.

    I feel that what I wrote and what you interpreted are very different things, that having been said I sincerely wish I had written what you've responded to.

    [–] melpomenesclevage@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago

    respond for the world you wish you lived in.
