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 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.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    You get to break windows and get to freedom.

    You're quite bold to assume that linux users haven't built their houses with doors instead of windows.

    My social circles are filled with Linux / Unix die hards... and most of them are engineers first, pragmatists second, and linux just fills the philosophy.

    They ALL, each and every one, have windows available to them (or macos). If nothing else then dual booting, for games, for family, etc. (Some may deny it, but if you really dig into it, they have the ability... or a VM laying around, for those one offs,, oh its for Work (tm) so it doesn't count).

    The online Linux or Die is a very vocal, but niche viewpoint that I never encounter in real life.

    I was planning to write, "I only use Linux on my computers", while that is technically correct, I also have a few Windows VM's and my partners PC is running windows, that came in handy when my Samsung laser printer forgot it's network settings.

    So I can as well admit it, I am: Engineer first, Pragmatist second, and Linux is a good caulk for the rest.
