Wrong meme. The dark place is systemd.

Man pages are fairly useless in my experience, at least compared to the internet. I can see where they had a place at some point though.

I’ll never understand someone’s need to “self own” by exposing the fact they either won’t or can’t read.

Man pages are great, you’re just not reading.

Look, I don’t need all of the options, just give me an example command for the common use case

https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/find.1.html

Jesus Christ, if I didn’t know already what to type I would never figure it out

Like all the examples on that page under the header “examples”?

Skill issue tbh.

Manpages are good reference documentation when you already know which tool to use and how to use it and just need to tweak something. They can often be overwhelming otherwise. Just look at the number of flags on any git command, for example.

You’ve nailed this here, yet get downvotes. The amount of times I’ve gone to a man page and my eyes glaze over. Really handy to learn new flags or if you forget, but as an introductory material. They don’t work for everyone. People learn in different ways, sometimes by doing and my brain isn’t wired this way.

I’m so fucking sick of every Linux meme being negative… Like are we supporting the community or actively trying to sabotage it?

Fuxk all these memes

Linux makes the word turn

Learn it and support it

This all started as irony, but it has gone too far

Regroup and get creative you sad intelligent fucks

How can you feel good about yourself if you aren’t shaming people with less technical capabilities? Next you’ll say something crazy like believing in yourself. Nonsense, crazy person. Get out of here.

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.
