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!

    I’m just sitting here patiently waiting for hexagonal displays.

    Hexagons are the bestagons.

    If we could get edge-to-edge displays, hexagonal panels with a spherical radius will be the next big thing for battle stations.

    (By spherical, I mean its curved so it can be tiled into a sphere.)

    Let's go one step further and build a monitor orb with a chair in the center.

    I mean, yes. That's what I was getting at.

    something like this:

    What about a pyramid tablet?

    [–] hperrin@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

    Only if I also get a dodecahedral phone.

    Needs to be circular to maximize efficiency
