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.

    Floppinux anyone?

    Long time ago I had a 3.5" HD floppy disk Linux with graphical user interface and ethernet and some programs on it. But 64 bit and the increased kernel size probably make this difficult nowadays.

    When I think back to when I marveled that one of our office's 8Gb nightly backup tapes fit in my shirt pocket - EIGHT GIGABYTES - in my POCKET!!!...

    In the future Gen ┐ will whine to their parents that their cerebral implant is only 100 terabytes.

    This is on my Framework Laptop:

    free -h
                   total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
    Mem:            58Gi       3,3Gi        47Gi        82Mi       8,6Gi        55Gi

    Look at all that room to get stuff done.

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago (4 children)
    % free -h
                   total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
    Mem:           125Gi        15Gi        90Gi       523Mi        22Gi       110Gi
    Swap:           63Gi          0B        63Gi
    

    I'll use it eventually. Just gotta let the disk cache warm up.
