- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- 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.
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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.

- Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed. Β
Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

No it isn't.

I personally can prove it. But I'm not losing my job over an Internet discussion. There are many cylinders still in circulation from the 1900s.
so you can prove it... but what? what would you have to say to prove it, that would mean you lose your job?
Yes. I have photographic internal proof about those markings and what they are and how we deal with them.

This is not one.
1948 isn't from the 1900s?
Before end of WW2 linde used swastika as company logo on tanks. After WW2 they used the window. Many old tanks had the swastika changed to a window, often very poorly. This is a tank from 55 that never had a swastika stamp, just a window stamp. Lots of poor information about this on the Internet that is mostly just forum posts. People see the window and instantly incorrectly think it's an altered swastika. Look at pictures of other window tanks and you can see they are all done poorly prior to 45 and are clearly altered. Starting in 45 they all look perfect and sharp because they are original window stamps.
I wonder what the window stamp means...
It means Linde. Here is a cylinder from Linde/Union Carbide that was made in 74.
