There is a Mary J. Blige song called "No More Drama." If Mary J. Blige would think it was drama, it is drama. No flamewars about emacs/vi, no matter how historically accurate they may be. No guilting people, shaming them, or making them feel bad. More benefit of the doubt and less "are you kidding me?" ------------------------------------------------------------- -* WHAT ARE THE STANDARDS OF BEHAVIOR? - -Be as much of a nerd as you want.

This concludes the tutorial. - -IMPORTANT NOTES - -Since I've now saddled myself in this clown rodeo, a few notes: - -- No drama. What constitutes drama? There is a Mary J. Blige song - called "No More Drama." If Mary J. Blige would think it was drama, - it is drama. - -- vim AND emacs are installed, use the one that is right for you. See - "No drama," above. - -- Chat with anyone you want using the talk command (ytalk seems to - have gone missing from the Internet!). Just amuse yourself by - pinging people and saying stuff at random. Don't be shy. If they - bail or don't reply no worries. This is a unix server. The only - people who want free accounts on unix servers are awesome cool - loving generous nerds. - -- If you don't want to chat there's a command that lets you indicate - that. See if you can remember that command! - -- This is a guilt-free project and total disaster is ALWAYS a possible - outcome. I'll cover costs up to about $100 a month. I doubt I'll let - more than a hundred or two hundred people on the system because - randos ruin. There are a hundred people now. - -- This thing is a de-facto whitey sausagefest so everyone be actively, - aggressively cool and sweet and remember that the only binary that's - real is the one that we use on our microchips. - -MY SACRED VOWS TO YOU +##~ford's SACRED VOWS to the community I will do my best to do the following things:
