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
sudoin 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. π¬π§ Language/ΡΠ·ΡΠΊ/Sprache

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We 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
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 remove France.

my ass searching up any ffmpeg command every time I wanna run them instead of memorizing it or putting it in a text file to reuse
Just remember if you need to do anything with subtitles in FFMpeg, you need to install libass
it for the streets
ffmpeg is wild as far as tools go
Yeah, there are massive projects that serve as a frontend to a subset of ffmpeg features.
What AI-generated, non-working, obviously incorrect garbage is this? Also, you want to define this as an alias to type the command 33% faster, too!
alias fc='ffmpeg -c copy -map 0:0 -f data - 2>/dev/null -i '
Amateurs.
Sigh, it's always "2>/dev/null" never "what is your problem 2?"....
I call this part "shut up, tin can, I know what I'm doing".
Sometimes you just don't care about these 42 files find couldn't access. If I don't have permissions to read them, I'm not interested!
That doesn't work for me, but it also doesnt give me an error
Then it works. Just not in the way you wanted
