From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What folders do you make in addition to the default ones ? (lemmy.zip)

I realized I always make a source folder under home and then subfolders named after programming languages to organize projects but then I realized I somehow had my own convention for how to store my source code and I have no idea where I got it from

Then I thought. what about other Linux users ?

What sorts of conventions do you have that pertains to folder structure in Linux ?

What about the ~/Porn folder?!

[–] Sims@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I could be wrong, but it seems he just mounted '/porn' directly as '/' ? Efficient, I guess.

..actually, there seem to room for more improvements; I'm not sure there's any need for an 'operating system' on the system - a small fap-app (tm) could likely handle all content on the system ? Work documents could be injected in to the fap-stream (c) when he needs to stop ? That would release many gb for even more fap-ability (c) ?

That's for startup ideas
