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!

    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 fork-bomb your computer.

    I was shocked when I realized people pronounced it fs-tab lmao

    [–] [email protected] 76 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (3 children)

    Mentally I say Fs-tab because its filesystem table but if I ever say it out loud its f-stab

    Madness.

    [–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

    Now that's insanity

    I'm calling the authorities. All of them.

    I've never heard fs-tab in my life. Always f-stab. Hmmm...

    [–] [email protected] 24 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    TIL for me

    Congrats for being one of today's lucky 10000! Sauce

    Was the other way around for me. F-stab just makes no sense.

    [–] [email protected] 12 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    Idk its just how my brain decided to "chop up" the word if that makes sense

    [–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    stab up the word

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

    Sure we can put that way lol

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

    But it sure is memorable!

    I've never heard it.

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    I mean I've never really talked to people much about GNU/Linux IRL, so I guess I've never "heard" it either lol

    [–] Tb0n3 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    I meant I've never heard fs-tab on fs-tab. Though with crontab is should have been obvious.

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

    Yeah that one makes sense
