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, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, 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.

    I genuinely have never heard of systemd before other than the meme about finding the next Friday the 13th or something
    I've used Linux for a off and on combined total of 6 months (not counting Steamdeck desktop use)

    As soon as you have to enable a a deamon/service, you have to interact with systemd. Systemctl is the command that is used for that (with option enable, disable, start, stop and restart)

    Some programs require you to enable such a service, in order that they work, but would not talk about systemd while explaining install of xyz, more like “enable xyz: sudo systemctl enable xyz”.

    Thats's intresting. I only use linux as vms, or on ny android Termux interface, since 4 months and i could install arch with archinstall and nowadays i'm almost done it without archinstall. I will also plan to write my own "bootloader" if grub and systemd-boot acts up, which grub did. I also wrote this script that creates a log file from your open ports using nmap and saves it with the current date:

    clear ; pkg install nmap && sudo nmap -O 127.0.0.1 >> "log$(date +%Y%m%d-%H).txt" && echo "/n/nlog file saved to $(pwd)/log$(date +%Y%m%d-%H).txt" ; nano "log$(date +%Y%m%d-%H).txt"
