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!

    LaTeX is shit at this point. Check out https://github.com/typst/typst. I cannot go back to the awful syntax in a powerful LuaLaTeX.

    Hm, looks somewhat less painful to type. Otherwise, needs further investigation; tnx!

    It's in the beta, but actively being developed. You can do a lot of stuff already, but a lot of stuff is either not implemented or janky. Overall I can cope with that. If you want to add something, just know how to write in Rust.

    Do you pronounce it "typist", "typeset" or "type es ti"?

    [–] crystal@feddit.de 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    Why not just pronounce it "typst"? (like "types" with a "t" at the end)

    Yay English got its second person singular conjugation back :)

    I type Thou typst She typeth

    Typ as in type and st as in street. One syllable with many consonants.

    It's still new and I didn't ask authors this question and doc doesn't talk about it either.
