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!

    In the early days of ext2, it was possible to unlink("/")

    I also saw init() go zombie once. Had to hard cycle the system and pray fsck didn't frag anything.

    I hear if you privately run a Tor exit node, the FBI will make a free offsite data transfer

    Bricking your BIOS comes to mind.

    Physical damage, spills, etc.

    Running rm -rf /sys/firmware/efi/efivars and having a shitty motherboard incapable of recovering from it.

    Probably not the worst way but breaking the bootloader is definitely annoying.
