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!

    Using Linux is often about ethics, it just doesn't make you a good person.

    It has the "txt" extension, probably planted by windows

    [–] mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 7 months ago

    Yeah windows update has overwritter the original truth.txt with spyware edition

    [–] whotookkarl@lemmy.world 46 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (3 children)

    Pedantic mode engaged: Last command silently fails because TRUTH.TXT is not truth.txt

    [–] rrconkle@lemmy.zip 17 points 7 months ago

    First command fails because -name is case-sensitive

    If you want to be that pedantic, we wouldn't have even made it to panel 3 because VIM don't launch shit.

    It's not the destination that matters, but the errors we pointed out along the way

    [–] Zink@programming.dev 2 points 7 months ago

    And also the pointers we errored out along the way.

    [–] nxdefiant@startrek.website 2 points 7 months ago

    on osx it is 😆

    [–] hperrin@lemmy.world 26 points 7 months ago

    sudo shred ./truth.txt

    [–] DmMacniel@feddit.de 22 points 7 months ago

    Sad cat noises.

    haha but using a FLOSS system is... change my mind.

    [–] yamapikariya@lemmyfi.com 26 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    Recommended by dentists I heard.

    [–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 8 points 7 months ago

    only 9 out of 10 of them

    [–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    That sounds like something GNU would say.

    [–] grue@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

    Only if you're using a bastard Linux with most of the copyleft removed, like Android or Alpine.

    Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

    Terry's TempleOS

    Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

    I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

    Using Linux is often about ethics, it just doesn’t make you a good person.

    Yeah, a user is passive. Now if you contribute to FLOSS projects, either with money or knowledge, then we can talk about your ethical superiority (I totally don't btw, can't afford the money, and don't have the knowledge)

    [–] BreakDecks@lemmy.ml 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    I bought a fully spec'd System76 laptop. Does that count?

    I also give some money to KDE from time to time, so I know that counts.

    [–] ikidd@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

    I'll allow it.

    [–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    Prolly shouldn't use special characters, such as +, in a dir name. Or maybe I've just revealed my ignorance of find syntax.

    [–] hperrin@lemmy.world 27 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

    The lost+found directory is a special directory in Linux file systems created by fsck or mkfs where inodes are placed when they exist but aren’t in the file structure.

    holly shit I need that script bad

    [–] sundray@lemmus.org 6 points 7 months ago

    sudo chown user exotic_pet

    [–] harrys_balzac@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 7 months ago

    Well, I guess I need to rethink my life.
