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.

Obviously you've never used Arch btw. We live for the
sudo pacman -Syu
.there is something very satisfying about running pacman -Syu at the end of the day and watching it update the repos, give you a neat list of packages to be upgraded, then see them downloading over all your threads with that little chomp chomp pacman animation, disappearing one by one, or a bunch at once, and then at the end it runs the hooks and you see that [1/23] fill up all the way to [23/23] in the span of a minute...
It's like popping bubble wrap, but you have 8 hands and 8 bubble sheets and never try to pop the tame bubble twice
You could also live for
yay -Syu
Or just
yay
I'll sometimes even run pacman -Syu right after updating. It works surprisingly often.
