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.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Weaksauce. Everyone knows you configure at least one Vulcan-nerve-pinch dead-key chord that primes the following key chord to switch the layout.

    Only half joking. I'm the guy with Ctrl-Super-Alt-Shift-Pause set to put the PC into Suspend mode.

    Unrelatedly, I hope the meme name isn't a dog-whistle of some sort, because that really would be weaksauce.

    Ooooh yeah. I didn't even consider that, but it looks like it comes from 4chan so there's a good chance you're right about the dog whistle.

    My favorite part of your suspend shortcut is that you can call it "hyper pause" and that describes both the shortcut and the action lol

    Thanks! I wanted something hard to hit by accident but with a nice mnemonic in it.

    A cat-on-keyboard situation could just about manage it, but I don't have a cat.
