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!

    Now get rid of those silly back slashes in paths, use bash as a non mentally deficient shell, change that sad kernel to Linux 6.8 and up, change your laughably sad NTFS to something sane, anything, even ext3 would do but take ext4, get rid of your ridiculous drive letters and instead of copying KDE, why don't you just switch to KDE on X or Wayland?

    Do all that and make it open and free, like all other actual operating systems and we'll talk

    I agree with everything but bash. Bash sucks I'm not going to lie, nearly anything else is better than bash

    what's wrong with bash?

    [–] thedeadwalking4242@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

    It's pretty archeic with it's syntax. A lot of its features have come about through feature creep. I mean it does a good job but it's just hard to work with and pretty cobbled together. It's showing it's age. If you've worked with any large bash scripts you'd understand how much of a pain it can be

    Windows increasingly allows either slash for paths.

    I read about this a couple of days ago, apparently some support was there since DOS 2.0.

    That and .NET's CLR, i think.
