There were shadowy conspiracists lurking in the dark alleys of Washington, and hiding from the glaring sun in the High Desert of California, but they were laughably easy prey when the Martian lizard people, the subterranean Vril-empowered mole-men, and the globalist pedophile Commies did show up.

  • That thread shows everything wrong with lemmy at the moment.

    “Go to lemmy.world”
    “No, we need to fight centralization. Go to lemmy.ml instead.”
    “No, those are tankies. Go to lemmy.ee [sic] or sh.itjust.works.”
    “I’ve switched and now can’t see any posts.”
    “Yeah, you need to ctrl+select English and Undetermined as languages in the settings.”
    “Use this client, it costs money but it’s only a one-time purchase”.
    “No, use that client.”
    “I used that client, but got only server errors.”
    “Well, it Works On My MachineTM.”

    When you’ve been on Lemmy for a while this might all make some sort of sense, but to everyone else, this is complete and utter madness.



  • Even if you hadn’t misspelled it, replying RTFM to people who ask what an acronym means is nonsensical and rude.

    Which manual???

    And while RTFM can be expected to be understood here, LKML without context can most certainly not. I’m a sysadmin by trade, I’ve been using Linux exclusively for 15 years, I’ve patched and compiled my own kernels, and I didn’t know that acronym. Cause I’m no kernel developer.
