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
sudoin 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.

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.

A gun is not a tool you need. It is just needed because you expect others to also have it.
Against random robberies, pepperspray, tasers or sirens are better.
If "the woman at night on the walk home" has a gun, "the robber" has one too. Nothing won.
If it is circulating, you cannot prevent the wrong people from getting them.
I see how not only the police having guns is nice. But this means they shoot way quicker. See the rate of deaths by police in germany, its always below 30.
I get what your saying completely. I don’t disagree per se actually (my brain tells me we just have lived in a crazy time for the past couple hundred years, guns are super prolific.). I would love if the police disarmed as well.
UK has it like that. They have "armed police" and normal police.
