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!

    Nope, actually I'm fairly calm. I only lash out when others do it at me first, but I own up (not lash out) if I was to blame. And the guy did own up, and that's great IMO, he admitted he was wrong. Bravo ๐Ÿ‘.

    Kernel devs are like mini-gods, so I can understand them being with their nose up in the clouds a bit... and they completely deserve that, they're the driving force behind what we use every day, for free I might add. But, since Linus started the whole thing, it's his show, he's running it. If he doesn't like what's being done, and especially if it's bullshit code, yes, I completely understand him lashing out... I might not do it that way, but I feel that there is nothing wrong with that either.
