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.

  • 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.

    Incredible! But does it come in dark mode?

    [–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 64 points 1 week ago (2 children)

    yes, just unplug the machine.

    So efficient!

    White is a bloat colour, it takes more energy for your monitor to display white than any other colour since white is all parts of the LED on.

    0/10, you're worse than a ai data center.

    Unless it’s an oled, WRONG, there hasn’t ever been SOMEONE as WRONG in the HISTORY OF HUMANITY, you DUMB person, you know what they say, big man, strong man, came up to me, tears down his eyes asking, why is my power so expensive, and I told him, it’s that JERK over THERE who is hogging all the power, and so I ENACTED an executive order to officially start a WAR, military OPERATION in Pakistan to find Obama Bin Laden HUSSEIN and find out why THIS JERK is spending ALL THE ENERGY on his TERRIBLE setup THAT ISN’T EVEN GOLD, like my ballroom, beautiful ballroom, big ballroom, came down tears down its eyes thanking me for making it pretty, and GOLD and SAFE and FIT FOR GENERATIONS TO COME

    Edit: I have too much fun writing these

    Too coherent

    [–] neclimdul@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    I know this is funny and I had a laugh but modern led displays have brightness zones and can dim backlighting in dark areas. so a big bright image also uses more power than a dark image on them as well. I know, fun party facts πŸ˜…

    [–] First_Thunder@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 week ago

    LOCAL DIMMING IS A RUSSIAN PROPAGANDA TOOL. Only a Dumbocrat would believe such propaganda, the REDUCTION of FOSSIL fuel consumption is NOT PATRIOTIC forcing the FEDERAL government to increase subsidies into FOSSIL FUEL INDUSTRY that will go BANKRUPT due to the TREASONOUS DEFECTIVE LOCAL DIMMING panels. ONLY SOMEONE SMART like ME, a GENIUS just like EINSTEIN, who has done SEVERAL COGNITIVE ASSESSMENTS where the DOCTORS were VERY IMPRESSED could POSSIBLY UNDERSTAND the consequences of letting LOCAL FACTORIES adopt SUCH CRAP technology. SPEAKING OF UNDERSTANDING I understand that IM NOT ALLOWED TO BANG MY DEAR DAUGHTER IVANKA because I AM her FATHER but if I WASNT, I totally WOULD DO HER. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS INCREDIBLY TREMENDOUS COMMUNICATION THAT BLEW your MIND.

    Note: I forgot about local dimming, lol

    A sexual sadist, you just know it

    And those people are the vilest to exist

    racist, sexist, convicted felon rapist

    And who can even tell all the crimes that were missed

    Of all the shit that's redacted on the list

    I'm pissed, fucker running the government like a business

    On an LCD screen it’s using less power to not block the light from coming through.

    White is #FFFFFF which is not minimalist. Go for #000000 instead.

    [–] flameleaf@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Forget the color and just give it 100% transparency

    #fff for a leaner experience

    [–] schwim@piefed.zip 25 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Yeah, the mouse cursor is really distracting.

    [–] jaxxed@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Don't you have a dark theme variant?

    [–] f3nyx@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    You wear sunglasses while hacking?

    Only note: Needs dark mode

    If you burn your retinas enough like OP, then everything becomes dark mode

    [–] jenesaisquoi@feddit.org 18 points 1 week ago

    Bloated as fuck

    [–] owiseedoubleyou@lemmy.ml 17 points 1 week ago

    Bloated, has a cursor

    [–] subignition@fedia.io 15 points 1 week ago

    I give this a score of 10/0

    [–] ColdWater@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 week ago

    Tf man my eyes, redo it all over again with dark theme

    [–] Chaser@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 week ago

    You need a white cursor with a light gray border 😬 besides of that: very creative!

    [–] Joker_1902@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 week ago

    It’s certainly clean and minimal but I’ll give it a 0/10, you flashbanged me.

    [–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 week ago

    Resolution 1x1 with 1bit color depth. Nice.

    Look at all that bloat, what a kludge

    [–] magnue@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

    Why are my ears ringing?

    [–] Ceruleum@lemmy.wtf 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Still using a monitor? Bloated.

    Cursor=bloat

    [–] DickFiasco@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    This is what my i3 desktop looks like, just in black. I hate explaining to people why there's no taskbar or icons.

    I hate how long I thought my phone wasn't loading the image

    [–] imjustmsk@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    why is cursor black? not very minimalist- I would go further and only use vim and throw the mouse in trash.

    Very clean! How did you do it?

    [–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago (3 children)

    I had to look it up, 20 years of using, and customizing, Linux and I have never heard the word ricing before in this context.

    [–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Yeah, it comes from customizing cars and has a somewhat racist background, but many folks learn the word in the Linux communities and have no idea of any of that...
