Not saying I condone it, but seeing how lifeless and sterile (no pun intended...!) most software has become, and how quick people have gotten to take offense at everything, I almost wish "spicy" stuff like this would show up more often.

  Why? Software can be fun without being... this. Easter eggs and humor, that's good stuff but a distribution full of slurs like some 13yo edgelord wrote it? I just don't see the appeal. There's already a bunch of random distros which are basically just themed (see https://hannahmontana.sourceforge.net/ https://hannahmontana.sourceforge.net/ or https://biebian.sourceforge.net/ https://biebian.sourceforge.net/) and joke distros like Suicide Linux or AmogOS

    > Easter eggs and humor I prefer humour. I increasingly find much 'humor' rather lifeless due to a misplaced desire not to cause anybody any offence whatsoever.

      When people feel frustrated because they can no longer laugh at some communities without people calling them out, they should take a moment to pause and reflect. There is always room for self-deprecating humor.

  I get where you’re coming from. Everything is maximal brand safety all the time, that a bit of vandalism can provide respite.

  Often enough we are funny because we 'dont mean it like this or that' but without context it's often more bullying than fun.

  My personal favorite is the "Bush hid the facts" easter egg/bug. Was it a bug or an easter egg disguised as a bug? Given how MSFT does not like to break old functionality maybe the easter egg creator knew this when adding it? A easter egg to survive the generations.

    Oh come on, as riddled with pitfalls as Unicode decoding is, you think it's an easter egg when the string "this app can break" or "hhhh hhh hhh hhhhh" can also trigger the bug?
    - nebula8804 3y ago
      It probably nothing more than a bug but I like to believe so just give me this illusion dammit! :)

  Noticing vandalism and fixing it is not the same as taking offence. Wanna get offensive stuff for some immature humour? Install fortune-...-off packages. Nobody is stopping you from experiencing it. But putting insults where other informative text should be is just stupid.

i assume they can prevent who ever added this nonsense from ever "contributing" again, at least under the same name.

'eldak' is a (rude) slang word for dick—this is the plural (i.e. dicks). Otherwise, Google's got the translation correct here.
