An immutable OS is useful for things like an alarm clock, where if you accidentally muted the sound system, you could oversleep. There's an obvious downside if you're someone that watches porn on your alarm clock computer, but sometimes compromises must be made.

I used to have a clock that had a USB port for pictures to display. This may be a larger problem than we're aware of

  • 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.
