1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • 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.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
  • 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.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.

    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 remove France.

    The penguin ain't messing around no more.

    Sources for the images I slapped together: The penguin is from an article on the Indianapolis zoo, and the rest is the cover image from John Wick taken from the Lionsgate page on the movie.

    [–] pie_enjoyer@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

    I like the image, but it would be better with Tux, instead of some random penguin.

    [–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

    I've got to agree with you now that I found a good Tux image to edit.

    [–] pie_enjoyer@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

    Thanks, this one looks lovely

    Oh, nooo...

    I started to imagine Wick with Tux'es head doing things he has done in movies.

    Cue the joke about killing children with a fork.

    That’s not nice

    [–] OctopusNemeses@lemmy.world 21 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

    I've got search queries on "how to kill orphaned child" or something like that. I'm sure it set off some flags.

    That caught me off guard

    [–] Bhaelfur@lemmy.world 53 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

    And this is why Linux needs age verification! Won't somebody please think of the children?!

    [–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 29 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

    Actually, maybe it would be better, if certain people thought of the children less.

    [–] Flyswat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 21 hours ago

    More is less.

    [–] pelya@lemmy.world 23 points 22 hours ago

    kill is a command.

    love, happiness, and peace are not commands.

    You can totally find love using command sudo apt install love. It's a game engine.

    happiness is a Perl module inside libdemeter-perl package. Let's not install Perl modules, there lies insanity.

    And you can find peace in a whole bunch of packages, it's an icon of the peace symbol.

    bash kill output:

    kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] pid | jobspec ... or kill -l [sigspec]

    fish kill output:

    kill: not enough arguments

    [–] jj4211@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago

    With fish, you just need to fight more to earn that kill.

    killall would then be "Seek and Destroy", systemd/init is "One" and booting Windows is St. Anger: Why would you voluntarily do that to yourself?

    Holy shite, you have no idea how much I adore this. Thank you.

    [–] manxu@piefed.social 10 points 22 hours ago

    Ha! On Ubuntu, the OS of Love, you get:

    manxu@ubuntu:~ love  
    Command 'love' not found, but can be installed with:  
    sudo snap install love  # version 11.2+pkg-d332, or  
    sudo apt  install love  # version 11.4-1  
    See 'snap info love' for additional versions.

    forced consent

    $ no
    bash: no: command not found
    $ yes
    y
    y
    y
    y
    y
    ...
    
    [–] palordrolap@fedia.io 10 points 21 hours ago (2 children)
    $ yes n
    n
    n
    n
    n
    n
    n
    ...
    

    I kind of want to go back in time and make it so that the original yes always printed the first letter of the name it was called by. That way you could symlink any name you like to it and it would do the right thing. Called as no it would print ns, etc. The optional parameter would still be there for longer strings or alternate uses.

    The reason time travel would be needed is that there's bound to be, or have been, someone who has done something weird regarding symlinking yes that relies on it always printing y when it has no parameter, and the name trick would be a breaking change.

    Or make your own package? call it affirm (more wholesome), write it in Rust (of course), and take on yes.

    Have you heard about Our Lord and Savior: Jesux

    Also, we are seriously considering changing some fundamental OS features. The idea would be that function calls and features suggesting evil and otherwise pagan ideas would be changed.

    All you need is kill

    Peace was never an option.
