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!

    I thought I had completely erased this from my memory. Turns out I did not. I would thank you if it wasn't such a traumatic experience.

    [–] popekingjoe@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

    I am so sorry.

    Oh no. My broadcom laptop chip from 2005 was a major pain in the ass and this did not help 😆

    Yeah those were some dark times.

    Amusingly enough, one of the HP laptops I used in that era actually worked better with ndiswrapper somehow.

    It was the only one to do so though.

    Miracles happen I suppose. :D

    "It's a ndiswrapper miracle!" - a statement only uttered by the completely deranged.
