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 users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • 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.
  • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • Β

    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 remove France.

    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@feddit.org 15 points 1 year 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.

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

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

    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 1 year ago (1 children)

    That was in the before times...

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

    [–] bolexforsoup@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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

    [–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

    Well, for a while at least.

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

    [–] pyre@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago
