- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- 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
sudoin Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

Germans: I don't get it.
Finally some good fucking localization
True. The name does feel out of place tho
Only until you scroll down to the 'K' section of the "All Applications" tab and suddenly everything makes a lot of frustrating sense.
What do you mean "scroll down to K"?
The group "kde-applications" has over 100 entries that start with the letter 'k'.
Funny. Your observation made me think that for the purpose of finding stuff it's most efficient to have a perfectly linear distribution across all letters. Ie if there is 26 letters and I type out a single one I'm precluding 25/26 applications.
Of course the application menu uses fuzzy search meaning it looks at the whole string not just the beginning and also crawls through meta data and tags.
Still for searching it seems most efficient if a language uses all letters evenly 🤔.
Kinda kinky, keeping kowtow kicking.
It's sorted alphabetically
Yes. Such ordered. Much K.
I know, the naming scheme is fairly obvious, but it's the only regular program with a german name (that I know of)
I didn't even know it's German. Was that deliberate or a happy coincidence because it's a hard 'c' in English and they seem to turn all words that start with a hard 'c' into apps that start with a 'k'?
You mean koincidence?
you win the thread
It's probably more of the latter, but KDE's roots were in Germany!
Man, I probably should have known that. Thanks.
KDE e.V. is still in Germany
Do note that the default non-X terminal is called console: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_console

Ja, bitte erklärt es mir. [=
