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.

    I remember Team Fortress 2 has a console command where you could set your voice gain stupidly high and blow out people's ears by just being in voice chat.

    Flashbang but loud (yes i know real flashbangs literally explode, but still)

    I have ear damage because games love to release nuclear bomb levels of sound when they boot for the first time.

    Seriously, this should be illegal. Every game blasts you with full volume and no way to turn it down until later. Then the reasonable setting is like 10%. I'm in the habit of taking my headphones off when I start a new game.

    I don't understand this. Why do people complain about this? turn your master volume down?

    If you expect me to remember things you're gonna have a bad time. And probably so am I.

    I have damage because an idiot scream-talked directly into my ear at a loud music event. It wasn't even worth it :(

    Went shooting with rednecks once. Fun at the time but maybe not a great idea in hindsight.

    Loved fireworks as a kid, didn't even knew the ringing in your ears after a loud bang was bad
