People underestimate how important being able to google answers on the internet has been for the take-up of linux and many other things. Most of us would be lost without Google.

Aaand the arch wiki

Aaand stack overflow

Aaand the Gentoo wiki

Aaand random Linux forums :P

Aaand very occasionally the accessible source code for when you’re really stuck and have no other choice but to sell your soul in exchange for a glimmer of understanding after peering into the abyss.

I’m convinced that if StackOverflow goes down society would follow within a matter of weeks.

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!
