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!

    I see this always get commented, but I don't get it, what's the right way to use it?

    In this meme template both the lowest and highest IQ should say the same thing

    [–] QuazarOmega@lemy.lol 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

    Ahh, makes sense, but is it really wrong? To me it's just a different kind of joke

    [–] zaphod@feddit.de 38 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

    You could use the iq meme template to make fun of people who complain about the iq meme template not being used correctly.

    I mean… Ubuntu is kinda-sorta just Debian with extra steps.

    [–] QuazarOmega@lemy.lol 1 points 1 year ago

    Right, I think there's another bell curve meme to be made here

    The way memes work, yes it is wrong. Memes have a core structure or theme that variations are made around. Changing that core only really works if making a new meme or if making intentional commentary on the original meme itself. In this case by having nothing more than their preferred ranking of distros the creator has actually made themselves the target that the original meme would be making fun of.
