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.
  •

    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.

    I always like to tell my BSG story.

    1. Watch mini series, it's good
    2. Don't get into the rest, forget about it
    3. Come home one day to flat mate watching it on DVD, just as the Galactica jumps into the atmosphere on New Caprica and jumps out again.
    4. Me: "I need to watch this from the start"
    5. Flat mate ejects the disc right then and there and inserts the first disc of the first season.
    6. We watch it every night until the end

    Best TV ever made.

    I'm a little sad that the first re-exposure was pretty much the pinnacle badass moment of the series. It's a great show, but that might have still set the expectations a bit high.

    That scene was the singular best piece of television in history.

    May be with the Galactica jumping into and ramming the Cylon colony later on a close second.

    I can weather the weaker parts of a story for the stong parts to shine beside. It's all good.
