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 admit to not really knowing anything much about the guy. I found out about him through reddit when people mentioned Linus in a context that just didn't make sense (because as we all know, there's really only one Linus). I never watched any of his stuff either. I'm more into text than video.

    He's no different from anyone you can go talk to who works in computer repair / IT.

    That's how i first know who he is. I just still think of him just like a regular guy from my area but that got super famous online

    But i was a customer at NCIX where he formally worked so I've met him before he was famous and in a very different context than you so no surprise.

    But im sure he is a very different person almost 20 years later like anyone would be.
