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!

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    1,2, and 3, all boil down to "Terminal." You could have condensed those lol. And get good dude the terminal is ridiculously easy and powerful, you can become proficient enough in an afternoon for all the copy/pasting from stack overflow you may need.

    4, Ooohhh you haven't tried any distro since 2006? Dependencies are managed by your package manager for you, unless you're using Slackware and even then I think they have stuff for that now (maybe some nice person will reply with that answer because I actually want to try slackware, but fuck managing my own dependancies.)

    5, Oh you were born the same year as the last linux distro you tried? Wild.

    6, and we're back to "I've never even heard of Gnome or KDE but they definitely can't do this thing they've been able to do for 20yr." Bruh I mount externals from the file browser or the taskbar every day what the hell are you talking about? I'm gonna do it again in about 4hrs when I get home because all my totally not pirated media is on there.

    Dude if you're gonna complain about linux at least try it first, this list reads like something some windows fanboy told you in the XP or Vista days ffs.
