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 have a feeling they're not just FreeBSD enthusiasts being pedantic...

    If I had a dollar for every time someone has mentioned that under this post...

    Yes I can do that, in fact it doesn't even stop me using it and it works fine. But you're missing the point. The point is they claim that their website is OS-dependent when they're really just lazy-asses

    Are they even lazy though? As far as I know that check and block has to be implemented. If they were lazy it would just work.

    Does it depend on a binary or is it really a website requiring an operating system?

    And what happens if you just put Windows into the useragent?
