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.

    Running yay by itself automatically does that.

    NixOS was like this for me in the first 1 or 2 weeks, after that it's been a breeze and very easy to keep my desktop and laptop configurations synced.

    This is where the Breaking Bad episode came from?!

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

    From the prequel with his first wife. Really informs the character's backstory.

    I reference this video every time I go to fix something simple on the farm. Gotta fix the tools I use to fix the tools.

    Every time I boot to linux to test something

    I've got to have [insert tool] software. If I install that then I need [other tool]

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

    but to get [other tool] working with my system, I need an exact version of [library] which breaks about a dozen other tools and libs, and symlinking the [library].so file in the hopes it will work breaks [this one particularly important tool] and then I'm now spending the weekend trying to hunt down a way to compile a custom fix for that to make all the others work...

    "daily" maintenance for linux??? i think we call that "eier schaukeln" in germany.

    So damn true lol.

    Trying to create an insecure Netflix desktop entry that runs excluded from the VPN (because netflix sucks) in a profile that allows DRM.

    But the result, worth it.
