badposting
badposting is a comm where you post badly
This is not a [email protected] alternative. This is not a [email protected] alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.
Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?
Rules:
- Do not post good posts.
- Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
- Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
- This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
- This rule intentionally left blank.
- If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.
Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

I never bothered asking this question cause I'm not a nerd: But what makes Linux "better" than the alternatives?
Everything stems back to that it is open source; meaning you, the user, have control over the software that runs on your system, not some corporation.
There are thousands of other benefits that result from that.
Don't like the way some piece of software works? Fix, fork, or replace the project.
The software ecosystem on Linux has virtually no spyware or adware outside cross-platform apps from big tech companies, so you don't need to do dozens of workarounds just to prevent your system from narcing on you to the NSA.
Given that CPU cycles aren't being wasted on shit that benefits corporations like adware and telemetry, your system will probably run a lot faster on Linux.
There isn't really a single piece of software that makes Linux better; it is the fact that GPL licensing makes it too toxic for corporations to build their make adware platforms on.
On Windows, MacOS, iOS, or Android, you can generally assume any software with internet permission is pretty much spyware. Linux software is generally built to work offline unless it must interface with remote servers for its functionality.
hmm, yes I see, of course......what's a fork?
Forking is what you do when you take an open source project and create a new parallel version that implements some behavior you want.
Usually you try to merge your changes into the original project, but if they won't accept them, you create a fork of the project.
