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.

    The funniest thing is, people say Linux is not ready, cause [insert feature] doesn't work. The problem is said feature doesn't work on Windows either.

    For example pausing/resuming playback across multiple appliacations using media keys. It's not perfect on Linux (not every app uses MPRIS), but it's not great on Winodws either

    Hell tbh I never use my pause/resume button, I just hit "p." I <3 VLC

    [–] 1boiledpotato 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

    Yeah, but that works on VLC only and it has to be focused. With MPRIS you can eg. pause a song playing in mpd, while having VLC focused

    Good thing I really only use VLC for videos, and Clementine for audio very rarely, and if I'm done with the music and switching to video I can just exit Clementine! I use the volume keys all the time though, since I sadly lack physical buttons.

    It works way better on Linux. I especially like the gnome screenshot tool

    Try flameshot or spectacle, way better.
