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.

    I have also mentioned this on more than a few occasions. I dual boot (very rarely to Windows nowadays) and I always use LTSC installs on all my dual boot setups. 0 problems thus far regarding GRUB and other Windows update related issues.

    I still don't know why people use Pro... maybe LTSC is more niche than I thought and MS is not pushing ads for that one out there.

    A lot of misinformation for ltsc, people thinking its only for kiosks and cant be used as a daily.

    Given the choice for sketchy script messing with registry or sketchy key I'm going sketchy key, at least I know windows iso is legitimate, crazy so few know of ltsc and choose the latter.

    Yeah, I'm surprised as well. Not enough research I guess... MS is very clear about what LTSC is and what it's not, as well as what it can do and what not.

    Oh well, I spread the word when and where I can, will keep doing so. I hope dual booters catch on the LTSC installs and have less problems with GRUB.
