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!

    Ah yes, good old top:50% left:50% margin-left:-50% margin-top:-50%

    Before that was worse, straight up center tags everywhere and assuming the user's screen was 1024x768 lol. Things today are sooooo much nicer with flexbox and especially CSS grid ๐Ÿ˜

    This would be so good nowdays. Why did they remove it?

    For semantic reasons.

    Each element in HTML should correspond to a proper semantic element. For example, navigation elements should go within <nav>. Elements like <center> are remanants of the good ol days when css wasn't mature enough and you'd add color to an element via attributes. Obviously, center has no semantic meaning and pretty much useless in web dev now. It hasn't been removed but deprecated.

    These are "should"s and not "must"s. This is why divs exist because many times it's hard to decide what semantic meaning a piece of content has, so divs are just generic components when you can't think of an better semantic tag.
