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 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 of any kind will not be tolerated. This is an LGBTQ+-friendly community -- if that is a problem for you, you should leave.
  • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
  • 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. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe 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.

    Here is the full series available to read on Mangadex (under a CC license), and direct link to Chapter 1 (of 16).

    If you had never heard of this series before, Ubunchu! was published in the Official Ubuntu Magazine Japan periodically between the years of 2008-2013 (with some digital extras afterwards found in chapter 16 on mangadex). The series was released using a CC license and subsequent translations are also CC (plus the translators have directly communicated with the original author).

    Praise open licenses

    Chapters 1-8 were translated years ago, but the final chapter was only translated just a couple days ago.

    Due to when it was written and published, it is a bit of a time capsule. You can relive some of the formative linux and Ubuntu events of the 21st century such as:

    Unity Desktop
    Unity is an alien

    The rise of linux mint
    Linux Mint as a JK

    OpenOffice & LibreOffice
    Battle lines are drawn in the office suite war to come

    Ubuntu Touch
    Ubuntu Touch, the third pillar of the mobile OS ecosystem

    Kiriha (the character in the lead image) is a Windows advocate in the story. She is brutal...

    This year will be the year of the linux desktop for sure

    Yeah, 2009... I remember the Jaunty Jackalope and Karmic Koala - although I was using Kubuntu.

    [–] wjs018@piefed.social 5 points 10 months ago
