- 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.

- 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.

It's why people chasing the latest graphics card "ray tracing" bullshit seems so pointless.
I was one of those who used to dream of real time ray tracing before it became a thing. And now that it's a thing, I feel uninterested by it (didn't event try to buy one of those GPUs. It's as if the dream was more fun to have than having it in reality.
I can just emulate God of War on my Steam Deck and it looks amazing at 2x resolution. Much better than a fancy looking game that isn't fun. Looking at you Cyberpunk.
