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!

    For those who are wondering, yes, Wine is malware compatible so be careful about the EXEs you run!

    Was it still through WINE? I'd feel bad for the miner as well as it likely couldn't have done the MSR mod so low hashrate lol.

    Feeling bad that a scammer couldn't scam hard enough is hilarious. Only in a Linux forum.

    Tbf, if you get an OOTB distro infected, that is most definitely user error

    If you (somehow) manage to get gentoo or lfs infected, I'd still consider it user error lol

    LFS maybe, but gentoo or arch is understandable because you have to set the security up yourself.

    Yes it was, I run Zorin (Ubuntu-based) on my laptop.
