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!

    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 fork-bomb your computer.

    You could make the memes manually, or like a true programmer spend several hours if not days making a script that make them for you.

    Yeah, I've seen the type... had a colleague in uni like that. And it's not like he's gonna need it for something else, but why spend an hour making them when he could spend 5 hours making the script to generate them in 1 second.

    If this is how true programmers think, I'm sorry, I'm not a true programmer then 🤷.

    I've been guilty of this... I justify it in my head by saying:

    it took me 5 hours to automate a 1-hr manual task, but hey, with this practice maybe next time I'll get it done in 4 hours, then 3, and so on until I can do it in less time than the manual task would take.

    That is true though, I agree. If I do see it as practice, then yes, I would do it regardless.
