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 will not be tolerated.
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
sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
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. ๐ฌ๐ง Language/ัะทัะบ/Sprache

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We 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. ย
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.

Ain't nobody got time for apt-get. apt all the way.
Yeah it's crazy to me that people default to it. For scripts, sure, but apt is so much prettier.
I use apt in scripts and docker files. I don't even know what apt-get is supposed to do better there?
It has a stable API but realistically I can't see them changing apt so much it matters.
People are creatures of habit and apt didn't always exist
I recall somewhere that it makes some kind of difference in scripts
apt-get has a stable API is my understanding.
wdym "a stable api"?
A mythical thing. Humans tell stories of impossible things around campfires and by the light of monitors

oh, ok.
but i wouldn't care. i'd say "fuck it, we ball"
(confirmable by the number of
--noconfirms used inhistory)That'd just the difference between them, I don't think it's something to worry about in your personal machine. Maybe if you're writing a script that thousands of people will use or something.
