1. Follow the site-wide rules
- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
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
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, 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.

By default, Firefox loads Javascript from any site. The Pegasus Trojan was transmitted by hijacking 2G and 3G network connections, and using malicious HTTP redirects that wouldnt work with HTTPS.
They are zero-click, meaning just opening that site would run the code.
i think security should be normalized.
It reports to be Firefox ESR on Windows 10. Maybe Windows 11 now.
I didnt. I just find it odd that you need to know the OS to display a site for 3 different form factors. But if that is true, then a UA might be a solution.
Yeah, a lot of things seem odd until you take 20 years to understand them.
