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.

    Hello! Here is your random engineer: You have to connect both trap doors to the same side of the turbine. Otherwise your generator has a great chance to get blocked by users.

    Otherwise the concept looks good. If we find a way to get the Linux guys out and make them able to walk a slight incline without collapsing this should work.

    I think the biggest flaw is the name.

    energy would be used by the Linux guys. That energy is probably equal or less than what the turbine produces. That makes it not a perpetual motion machine. It is free energy for the owner though as long as the speakers don't consume too much energy as the Linux guys will come and for free to no cost of the owner
