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 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 just chose it because I really don't care about that. It's my own personal repo for Void, but if anyone wants to use it, that's fine, use it however you like.

    IDK if CC is available on GH from the drop down menu, I know Unlicense is... it was the fastest way to say "I really don't care what you do".

    cc0 allows people to use it in weird edge cases, whilst the unlicense might be vague on or not allow that use

    What might those edge cases be? Unlicense literally says there is no license, do whatever you want.

    idk, some guys on the internet (who are probably not lawyers).
    nitpicking, but no license means that all rights are reserved, meaning in most cases, you can't use it.

    It's not that there isn't a license, there is, but the license says there is no license, it's public domain, do whatever you like. It's not a problem if your license says that there is no license, but yes, it is a problem if you don't have any license attached to your code. In those cases, yes, most distros don't touch that code... or maybe point at the project, but do whatever you deem is right with it, we're officially not touching it.
