That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Nokia is like a mosquito that uses patents to leech off of other companies. What a great business model. A real useful niche they're filling.
Nokia invents patented technology they use in their products (hint, not a cellphone)
Another company illegally uses this technology without a license
Nokia sues them for using their proprietary systems without permission
"Nokia is such a parasite"
Nokia Oyj is the part that Microsoft never bought. Their non-consumer-facing operations. Wireless tech and infrastructure, RnD, actual science.
And they were and still are huge in that sector, you just won't hear about them unless you work in internet infrastructure, because they no longer do consumer products like phones. (That's a completely different company, HMD Global, which acquired the rights to use the brand for phones)
Not a mosquito, more like IBM. Still around, still massive, but operating "behind the scenes" now.
“What a mosquito”, he says to the trampling mastodon that basically runs all of the B2B wireless tech in the majority of the world.
You realize they own Bell Labs, the organization that humanity owes the information age to, right?
