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.

    Unnaproved software installation implies an obligation to provide user support... indefinitely.

    The arch installing bandit is anonymous. Noone knows how to reach him

    Like the guy that installed Windows on your machine without you asking...

    That same guy started covertly encrypting users' data and then the fucking keys stopped working. I'll take zero support over that.

    I head cannon the arch installation bandit as a girl.

    Why is it "head cannon" and not "head canon"? You got some kind of gun strapped to your head that you keep stories in?

    [–] [email protected] 24 points 3 months ago

    Actually I think they mean that "as a girl" (meaning the commenter is a girl), they "head cannon" (meaning they use a cannon to shoot heads) "at the arch installation bandit". I hope this annotated version helps!

    I head cannon the arch installation bandit as a girl.

    Quaffing the potion of gender stability, now in your female form you strap on the head cannon and fire it at the arch installation bandit.

    The arch bandit takes 5d7 damage and collapses prone. Seeing their leader defeated, the subordinate installation bandits flee. You have reclaimed Installation Cathedral from the bandits and can now invite the Installation Medium to summon the spirits of past operating systems.

    The hell it does.

    You've spent too much time talking to my family.

    It also requires that they migrate all of my files and ensure I have full functionality my software and games.

    Just type yay in that black window with white text, at least if I would have set it up, not that I did, just if I would have, of course.

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    Why doesn’t Arch just put yay in the repo?

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

    🤷🏻‍♀️

    But endeavourOS does, it is even pre-installed, which is nice
