1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • 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.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 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, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Wait is the joke that it has no windows or that some Linux users have never gone outside in their entire life?!?

    [–] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 85 points 9 months ago (4 children)

    What's this "outside" people keep saying I should go to? I use Arch, BTW.

    I've been there. It's awful. Full of natural light and... blegh... people.

    Zero stars, I'd rather use Ubuntu

    [–] strangebananaman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 22 points 9 months ago (2 children)

    The only type of “People” I know of are Richard Stallman, and Linus Torvalds! Never seen anyone other than myself in my life. Is that normal?

    [–] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 16 points 9 months ago (1 children)

    What about anime cat girls? You do know some of those, don't you?

    Omg yes that’s my girlfriend 😻😻😻

    You forgot something...

    • firewalld
    • network manager

    My work is done... 666

    [–] rtxn@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

    firewalld I understand, but why is NetworkManager scary? Is it the capital letters in the package name?

    Zero stars? I think there are at least a few stars, in the sky at night.

    I didn't find it in the AUR. Probably not worth it.

    It's this place where the light burns your skin and the plants release pollen that triggers your allergies. Nobody should go there unless they're one of the people that makes desktop wallpapers.

    Both of those things, plus also that due to Linux is being best served via the command line, so a "GUI" like a window would be unnecessary

    [–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 45 points 9 months ago

    I see he hasn't installed the window manager yet

    [–] Railison@aussie.zone 33 points 9 months ago

    [–] Hiro8811@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

    Theres a tax on.......windows?

    [–] SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.world 13 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

    There used to be

    These days we have a license cost for Windows.

    [–] Hiro8811@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

    This seems to be America though.

    [–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 19 points 9 months ago

    Nah, just a Russian millionaire with problematic opinions.

    Door appears to have a Window

    [–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 13 points 9 months ago

    Only one though, so they're good

    I mean, true, technically windows ARE the largest heat loss source. Also they are very bright!

    [–] LarmyOfLone@lemm.ee 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

    We really should have insulated window blinds or shutters that easily / automatically close at night or in the winter.

    Germany is laughing at us rn

    Bro why does this freak me out.

    [–] NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

    It is highly unsettling. Its real enough and I think it's the imagining walking past that and it feeling like a glitch in the matrix.

    [–] 4am@lemm.ee 8 points 9 months ago (3 children)

    So, what’s this really? Is it photoshopped or is it a pump station/electric substation?

    [–] Undearius@lemmy.ca 8 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

    It could be some type of service building made to look like a house so that it blends in better with the neighbourhood.

    Here's an example of an electrical substation made to look like a house.

    [–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 6 points 9 months ago

    Yeah these days this is done in 2min with remove tool.

    Linux user probably can’t afford a home, so maybe a MacOS user

    lol downvotes are funny considering at least two threads on the front page are about unaffordable housing prices. Wasn’t trying to be mean, just an attempt at topical humor, sheesh
