  • 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.

    So much minecraft and kerbal space program. They were two of the very few games that ran naively and had cracked Linux files available on public trackers. I had to put a minimum of 1000 hours of minecraft using the clit mouse that old Dell laptops used to have. I hate that they got rid of those and now the only modern laptops with the clit mouse are Lenovos which I hate. Lenovo ruined ThinkPads.

    Named so because it’s hard to find and fiddly to use?

    Nop, named so because once you learn how to use it properly, you can finish tasks faster and easier than any other plug-in solution. Plus it’s way less awkward than just rubbing randomly all over the trackpad.

    I had a laptop with a clit mouse when minecraft first came out. Never got the hang of it and would steal one of those mice with the trackball on the bottom from my dad's desktop instead
