- 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.

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.

I hate everything about this stupid propaganda/publicity stunt.
What was it?
They took a bunch of rich women, dressed them up in objectifying skintight suits, then flew them to space for 10 minutes in a glorified plane ride on the second richest guy's dick shaped rocket. And we're supposed to be "inspired", meanwhile women who are actual rocket scientists and astronauts are being erased and removed from NASA's web site because "woke dei" or whatever.
Funny thing is, 10 minutes sounds like hyperbole, but after they crossed the line that's internationally recognized as the edge of space they only spent 3 minutes there before returning.
Wow! A whole 3 minutes! Better kiss the ground to show my appreciation for the Earth!
You're not fair to the brave astronauts^* that did^* the first^* all woman space^* expedition^* ! It was a whole 11 minutes of a glorified plane ride.
Meanwhile no-one mentioned Valentina Tereshkova, who orbited Earth 48 times on her own back in 1963. Sigh.
Thats it, nobody can do anything now because the US voted for an fat orange turd after running their finances in the worst way they possibly could for the last 50 years?
Some rich fucks went to "space" for a couple minutes in another rich fucks giant penis enlarger.
Best summation EVER!
Even a better summation than this? πΈ
pointless summation, that just simplifies to
n(n+1)/2
:POr -1/12 if we take the limit as n approaches infinity!
Nice! I don't actually knows maths! π Is there a better summation out there?? I gotta know.
I think this is a good one. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basel_problem
Basically, series of 1/n^2 sums up to 6 / pi^2.
Best summation EVER!
Moonlight@fedia.io has a pretty good one too.
I wasn't sure which article to link, there are many opinion articles with their own takes on it

Here's the Wikipedia

I would have said the same thing until I saw this new meme format.
Iβm not gonna pretend that the billions squandered and the environmental damage was worth the meme, but those are sunk costs so at least we get this out of it?
We take what we can get, and keep going.
