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!

    I remember buying Mac OS upgrades. Time for the retirement home, I guess...

    And here I am remembering how awesome those multi colored transparent Macs looked back in the day

    The puck mouse was horrendous, though. My hand still hurts ~25 years later.

    The puck mouse is why I’m so good at using keyboard shortcuts. I use vim, btw

    Is this still not a thing? Now that I think about it I don't think I've looked into macos in like 20 years.
