- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.

sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
- Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
4. No recent reposts

MODERATORS
Cannonical (Ubuntu's parent developer) is trying to become the Microslop of the Linux world. Just use a fork instead - plenty to choose from.
Better go one step back to Debian instead.
Fuck that reboot. It's almost never necessary under Linux. Unnecessary, forced reboots in Windows are one of the last straws that made me fully switch my last remaining Windows system over to Linux.

totally unrelated, but 1) what are the words in superman's hair; and b) has that always been there, and my dumbass hasn't seen it until now, years after i first saw the meme?
Most likely the name of the artist who drew the Superman version of the meme.
1 Not sure - 2 No, usually is Robin.
lol thanks, i originally wrote robin instead of superman, but saw the colors and edited the comment, and thought "well, i guess i'm officially old now..."
Pretty sure it's AI artifacting.
