Sister communities:


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!

    Heck, I have errors in windows log that are just "sure, let's move on".

    My favorite error message of all times:

    You don't exist, go away!

    WARNING: /boot appears to be a separate partition but is not mounted. You probably just broke your system. Congratulations.

    Is that a real error message in Linux?

    My broken pipe on update error doesn’t come up often enough to properly deal with and every possible cause I have found hasn’t applied

    This principle applies to the GNU C compiler also. Any other compiler is going to complain at you for not adhering to their stupid style guide, or for not using their proprietary "mEmOrY sAfE" libraries. But if GCC is giving you warnings, you darn well better fix something.

    Bailing out. You are on your own. Good luck!

    If you have a problem just sudo it away.

    Throw in an '-rf' for good measure

    If that works, I'm switching to linux
