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!

    That's totally fair. I'm not some weird evangelist or anything. I just like options and think OpenRC is kinda neat. There's nothing wrong with systemd, and honestly it's more work using other options. Not for the actual init system, but for some of the other stuff systemd does. I've had to learn cron, and that has been... interesting. It feels like all of the documentation around cron just assumes you already know how cron works. I'm still not sure if I'm doing it right, but I've had a good time and my computer works, and really that's good enough for me.
