- 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.

- 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
sudoin 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.

Incorrect: the backdoored version was originally discovered by a Debian sid user on their system, and it presumably worked. On arch it's questionable since they don't link
sshdwithliblzma(although some say some kind of a cross-contamination may be possible via a patch used to support some systemd thingy, and systemd usesliblzma). Also, probably the rolling opensuse, and mb Ubuntu. Also nixos-unstalbe, but it doesn't pass theargv[0]requirements and also doesn't linkliblzma. Also, fedora.Btw, https://security.archlinux.org/ASA-202403-1
Sid was that dickhead in Toystory that broke the toys.
If you're running debian sid and not expecting it to be a buggy insecure mess, then you're doing debian wrong.
Fedora and debian was affected in beta/dev branch only, unlike arch
Unlike arch that has no "stable". Yap, sure; idk what it was supposed to mean, tho.
Yes, but Arch, though it had the compromised package, it appears the package didn't actually compromise Arch because of how both Arch and the attack were set up.
