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!

    Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

    Yuki installs Gentoo

    Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

    I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

    I use Arch and only use Vim or Emacs for config files. That's Linux flex culture right there. πŸ™‚

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

    Vim or Emacs? Stick to one, you editor two timer!

    Pathetic and bloated. Nano is all you need

    I use Debian with the Linux-libre kernel and OpenRC, relatively the same experience but without the AUR.

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Debian unstable for all 11 of us crazy fuckers out there.

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

    Tbh, I haven't experienced too many issues other then modifying a couple prgrams to be compatible with OpenRC. On my main desktop I use Debian 12 and Systemd with my 2080 SUPER and haven't encountered any issues.

    Although, when I tried to install the open kernel version of the NVIDIA driver, my system didn't like it, so I ended up installing the full proprietary driver and it works well. Will be switching to AMD once I need to buy another graphics card.

    (I use Gnome as my DE with two 1440p 144hz monitors)

    Want to fuck the thread up? Just ask "What is the G.O.A.T. Distro?"

    Arch users: I updated grub and my computer won't boot. Wtf?!

    Other distros: thank you for finding the bug on latest version of grub. It's fixed now so our users don't have to experience it.

    You're welcomed πŸ˜‰

    In case anyone else was wondering, I use Arch.

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

    So do I, but that dosen't mean we aren't enemies.

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

    No you don't. If you use any pre-packaged version of Arch, it's not Arch. If you use a GUI installer, it's not Arch. If you've followed a YouTube tutorial, it's not Arch. If you've opened up this support request, but did not update your system in the last 37 seconds, it's not Arch.

    Forum thread closed. User banned.

    Honestly the installation guide is super easy to follow and well on the shorter side. Installing arch isn’t the arduous test of one’s linux knowledge some make it out to be

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

    Your reply didn't include the last timestamp you've updated your Arch install.

    I have been to some shady pubs and nightclubs in my life, non of them had so much violent people as a linux bugreport thread.

    And people wonder why Linux has never gained large marketshare

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

    Oh, for sure. Windows marketshare never drops only because of its friendly community.

    Queue any discussion of Wayland/Xorg, Systemd, flatpacks, snaps, distro choice, ~~Pipewire/Pulseaudio~~ (last one is easy, Pipewire ftw), Vim/Emacs, GPL/MIT, immutability, etc..
