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!


    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 fork-bomb your computer.

    "From the makers of the BFG-9000... the all new FGC-9 sidearm!"

    [–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (2 children)

    Actually it's less of a sidearm more of a pistol calibre carbine chambered in 9mm, and the dude that made it "mysteriously died" in german police custody so no more from him.

    Apparently he actually died in his car 2 days after a fruitless police raid, allegedly of "heart attack".

    Huh TIL, thanks. Heard at the time he had been in custody, guess I heard wrong.

    Not that it matters, there's a bunch of people I've seen working on rifle-caliber 3D printed weapons now.

    Hell, I follow some folks on Twitter who were developing handmade anti tank launchers (which are actually legal for certain US States if they're registered with the govt lmao). Definitely not going to get glowied any time soon im sure.

    The main difference is JSTARK was German and was snitched on by an Englishman, who I'd bet is the guy who filmed that piece on him for Popular Front that slimy bastard. (Also turns out he died two days after the raid not in custody, my bad!)

    All that is for sure legal stateside! (Well unless CA, NJ...)
