  • 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.

    I love how the ONE time they did, all the fears were validated.

    Gaeta (sp?) did a damn good job all things considered

    Athena was the one who did all the work. What did Gaeta do? Plug some patch cables in?

    [–] DmMacniel 15 points 3 months ago

    And then pulled them out. Good team work.

    Set up a multi layered firewall that delayed the inevitable for long enough for them to execute their plan, for one.

    Gaeta is the unsung hero of that series.

    [–] teft@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago (2 children)

    Gaeta is a traitorous shitbag as evidenced by his death by firing squad.

    [–] Klanky@sopuli.xyz 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    That whole arc made me sad.

    [–] teft@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    So much. I really liked Gaeta before he was a traitor.

    [–] bolexforsoup@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 3 months ago

    All he ever did was try to do the right thing and generally his reward was watching the people he loved get killed or people he trusted rise to power and betray him/leave him in the dust.

    I’m not saying what he did was OK, but that bitterness festered over a very long period and over many events. Not to mention this all started with the genocide of the human race, which I imagine is going to take a bit of a mental toll on someone lol

    Gaeta was the one feeding the resistance information.

    [–] teft@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    That was in the before times...

    [–] bolexforsoup@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 months ago

    Life’s complicated. That’s what made his arc so tragic and good

    [–] bolexforsoup@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

    I thought Gaeta was the one holding off the cylons from breaking into the system

    [–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

    Well, for a while at least.

    [–] DmMacniel 5 points 3 months ago

    The network with its fake daemons and firewalls lasted how long? A minute or so?

    [–] pyre@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

    i was gonna say! LOVED that part.
