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 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.
  • 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, <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.
  • Β 

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    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.

    ... I know how to use iptables, does that make me a witch or somet8+?

    Knew I should have never had cold medicine as a kid… explains why nothing acknowledges ICMP in my network.

    What's next, smartcontractables?

    Man iptables.... Glad I found my way to make it work with my setup, I'd be a pain in the ass to manage a router entirely with them 😦

    If I could configure iptables manually, I would have friends.

    I don't quite understand what iptables are, but the other 3 pills seem like they could have serious monkey's paw like downsides if not chosen or implemented carefully.

    World Peace because everyone's a lobotomized meat robot for instance, or telepathy, but you can't control it so everything's constantly bombarding you with thoughts, or everyone can hear your thoughts constantly for instance. And eternal life without eternal health or youth is such a cliche at this point it's barely worth mentioning. Plus all the sci fi dystopias where there are basically immortal heads in jars, like Futurama.

    Or Eternal Life where hey, it's not that bad... you're young and healthy forever and can even regrow parts... but everyone else has died so you're all alone, and guess what: heaven is real.
