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!

    That and it rubbed me wrong when he went into small businesses to buy them out, only to ridicule all their product for being useless garbage.

    He goes into one of those dingy old PC stores that have walls crammed with dusty products that haven't been sold in like 15-20 years and buys everything, even turns it into a bit of game with the owner where they roll a giant foam or play darts dice to see if he's going to pay ridiculous prices for some of the products. Like many of these boxes are literally early 00's tech that never moved and was just sitting there.

    To be offended over that video is utterly ridiculous and it's clearly all in good fun with the owner, who gets to avoid making a loss on stock he should've thrown out decades ago.

    That might be the worst video of them all to be mad at. Absolutely no harm done and everyone was clearly having lots of fun, the store owner included. There are videos with actual issues but this ain't it chief.
