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!

    This is the kind of dad that will backtrace you.

    Consequences will never be the same

    [–] aliteral@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

    I understood that reference!

    [–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 19 points 6 months ago

    Now that o can get behind - keep up, dad!

    apt: could not get lock: permission denied

    [–] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 35 points 6 months ago (1 children)

    deletes some lock file and it works again

    FBI OPEN UP

    [–] jaybone@lemmy.world 10 points 6 months ago

    Plot twist: the FBI is the daemon that has the lock.

    Reminds me of one time I was running an update at work and a coworker came up and asked are you coding because I have an app idea.

    I said all I typed up was "yay"

    [–] redbr64@lemmy.world 41 points 6 months ago (2 children)

    Did you then tell them "I use arch btw" and then get a confused question about architecture?

    [–] Drinvictus@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 6 months ago

    I had to because I had a sticker

    [–] RGB3x3@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

    "It's pronounced Ark, short for Architecture. It's French."

    "Fuck off, Kyle."

    I once had someone at school declare, "Oh shit, you're hacking stuff!". I forget exactly what I was doing at the moment, but I either had a Latex doc open in vim, or I had ncmpcpp open. Not nearly as exciting as whatever he was imagining.

    circular dependency detected

    I genuinely wonder how many government systems are vulnerable to being broken by someone issuing a command to update to the latest software version

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

    Not as many now that governments have opened there eyes to cyber warfare

    [–] aliteral@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

    So we just need to infiltrate the governments and do the Kerrigan compiler thingy?

    [–] WeLoveCastingSpellz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 44 points 6 months ago (2 children)

    jokes on you, I made my dad switch to linux and he loves it

    [–] ordellrb@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

    My dad wanted chromeos for some Reason. Better then before i guess.

    [–] InevitableWaffles@midwest.social 6 points 6 months ago

    Without the capitalization, I read ChromeOS as Chromeos and that made me think its the new hottest breakfast cereal.

    [–] 0x2d@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 months ago

    what distro does he use?

    [–] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 37 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

    Pipe that stuff into lolcat and you are hacking the government in gay :3

    [–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 months ago (2 children)

    So I just learned this mere seconds ago messing around in the terminal because of this thread. You know toilet the big text program in the terminal that does kind of ascii art text? A major difference between it and figletis it can do colors, and there are two color presets guaranteed to be available. Try toilet "hello there" --gay

    [–] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 months ago

    Neat. But lolcat has a better gradient

    [–] aliteral@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

    Aside from neat tricks, I have never ever used it for something productive... But they are still great commands to have fun!!

    [–] kirbowo808@kbin.social 27 points 6 months ago

    Most accurate. Gentoo users all still live in their parent's basements

    Imagine having to run two commands to upgrade your packages

    [–] NickwithaC@lemmy.world 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)
    sudo apt update && apt upgrade
    

    Still one line!

    [–] dev_ashish@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

    Well he said two commands, not lines :)

    [–] kaputter_Aimbot@feddit.de 1 points 6 months ago

    I like

    sudo nala upgrade -y
    

    Works well :-D

    a reminder to hack the government?

    [–] bobs_monkey@lemm.ee 23 points 6 months ago (1 children)
    [–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 5 points 6 months ago

    Just don't hack too much time...

    [–] redbr64@lemmy.world 12 points 6 months ago

    sudo apt install hollywood

    [–] Churbleyimyam@lemm.ee 11 points 6 months ago (1 children)

    I'm actually thinking of pranking my girlfriend some time by editing her bash aliases so that:

    alias update='sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y && hollywood'

    [–] terminhell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 6 months ago

    It'll look the same to normies lol

    [–] boonhet@lemm.ee 7 points 6 months ago

    Emerge -avUDN @world

    You now hack all the governments at once!

    (I didn't check the capitalization of the flags)
