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, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •

    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.

    Redhat 5.1. I had no idea what I was doing.

    Kubuntu, because I did the "hard"-distro-to-show-off thing with Gentoo 20 years ago and can't be bothered anymore.

    Um...

    Manjaro (Stable) with Plasma 6 (and broken Oxygen icons).

    I plan to merge those icons with GNOME icons... which are also partial, but I am too lazy. I like their early 2010s 3D look, but currently nearly half my icons are just missing.

    I should be able to just rsync them together I hope and name it something else. Then also rsync the default Breeze icons as a last resort. I should be able to do that with --ignore-existing I think.

    Mint!

    ... alright, go ahead and shoot.

    F-that! Take pride... Mint is ridiculously good. Well managed, stable, "just works" and yet has all the capabilities you want, including auto-running near the edge for current kernels (backed down to stable) without doing jack. You can run at the bleeding edge if you want to manage it yourself.

    And for any haters - here's my take: I've been working with Unix for 30+ years, I installed Slackware off of floppies when 16MB of RAM was god-like. I have built, compiled and managed nearly every distro at some point certainly the upstream giants. I've been there for the birth of all of them. I've also professionally worked on AIX, SunOS/Solaris, HPUX. Yes there's a lot of fun in maintaining and running things to your satisfaction, but when you hit a certain inflection point of balancing your real life and maintaining distros across multiple machines and decide "This is the way" - Mint just fits the bill on so many levels.

    Mint is the bomb and I'm done pretending. Fight me (not you, OP, you're cool)

    Arch, but not fully installed. Just persistently in installation process.
