1. Follow the site-wide rules

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 sudo in 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. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe 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.

    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 company just went under and let us keep our laptops, day after they wiped it I got Ubuntu on it. So I'm a little bit of column A, little bit of column B!

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 16 minutes ago

    Programming socks.

    [–] [email protected] 184 points 20 hours ago (3 children)

    That might be the same person, just at work vs at home.

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 6 hours ago

    It must feel so good to get home, take of your slacks, and let your programming socks out after a long day in the computer mines.

    The Linux to Transfem pipeline is real!

    [–] [email protected] 7 points 11 hours ago

    Hmmm that can't be right, did I use the wrong terminal? Why can I only sometimes be a girl?

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 13 hours ago

    All about that bussy

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

    Now I just gotta replace my battery so it can be a laptop again!

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

    The replacement battery you bought in 2017 was the last of the genuine stock for that 2012 Thinkpad model. Now it's only poor quality aftermarket. Maybe just stick with the existing genuine battery -- its 47 second runtime should be enough time for AC loss to trigger a custom script to make it hibernate.

    Fr tho that Arch setup looks clean, I like it

    I'm cis and not into anime tho

    [–] [email protected] 18 points 17 hours ago

    "plural inside"

    Multi-CPU systems be like.

    [–] [email protected] 26 points 18 hours ago (3 children)

    I've worked with a bunch of hardcore Linux users in my career, some of whom even knew about Lemmy. Not one of them have ever worn striped socks though.

    The number of trans people is very small. Only a small percentage of people who work in tech are trans. But a relatively huge percentage of trans people work in tech.

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 2 hours ago

    Nor is every thigh high sock user trans.

    [–] [email protected] 26 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

    I guess the important thing is Arch 🀭🫠

    [–] [email protected] 7 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

    Gentoo was mentioned more actually.

    [–] [email protected] -4 points 18 hours ago

    Have you lived under the rock? Trans und Arch is running gag meme, lol

    I might be more column B, I gzess.

    [–] [email protected] 32 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

    Ugh. I hope the current owner has new keycaps for all the sock colors because matching socks + keyboard is cool, but well… when you change your socks that goes out the window

    [–] [email protected] 38 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

    Judging by that picture, I think they’re all in on that color scheme and likely just bought multiple pairs of the same socks.

    [–] [email protected] 16 points 19 hours ago

    That’s baller

    [–] [email protected] 20 points 19 hours ago

    Redundant socks is essential for this setup.

    X200s Love it.

    [–] [email protected] 7 points 19 hours ago

    Same for old Dell, the $2000 laptop can be grabbed at $300 after 3 years, this is really cool. I installed Linux on mine too of course.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago

    Hey! I'm agender thankyouverymuch

    [–] [email protected] -3 points 19 hours ago (3 children)

    Arch Linux !? Libel ! Real trans people use NixOS 😎

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

    You Linux users sure are a contentious people.

    [–] [email protected] 7 points 13 hours ago

    We have our turf wars but we’re all secretly friends. Friendly competition keeps everyone motivated !
