2. Be civil
- 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
sudoin 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.
5. π¬π§ Language/ΡΠ·ΡΠΊ/Sprache

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.
- We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
- 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.

Yeah this is spot on. Tech literacy is at an all time low, today's kids and young adults are having to be taught during work orientation what a file browser is now.
People who are currently between the ages of 30 and 60 are the generation that learned how to use their technology effectively. Older than that and you're likely to be the "clueless boomer" trope, younger than that and you're likely to be a tablet baby.
Not to mention that in my experience at least, public school teachers cared about basically every single petty problem except for the ones that would have actually benefitted anyone. You've been punched straight in the face every single day for two years by the same bully? I sleep. One of the girls wore shorts this morning and has visible knees? Get sent straight home immediately. Do not pass Go. This is a sin that cannot be tolerated.
All that to say, this story is definitely made up but there are places in America today where it could happen 100% as written.
All time low, so far. We haven't seen the full might of the generation that was raised by Tiktok and educated by chatbots.
Have you seen Wall-E?
