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.

    what are you using?

    [–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (28 children)

    Arch. Just updated a few days ago, got some java conflict stuff. Jdm jre or some kind of error. Had to read what people online did to fix that.

    Edit: lmao why am I being downvoted?

    Maybe because the jre thing was an update that required manual intervention, there was an Arch news item about it. You're expected to read the Arch news before an update when you're running Arch. This can be automated with alias update='yay -Pw && pacman -syu' If that's too much for you, use a different distro.

    To make it even more convenient, register to their mailing list and you get a heads up.

    My ADHD and 1297 unread emails make that a bad idea.
    With the alias, the news pop up in front of me right when they're relevant.

    Those are rookie numbers son, you gotta get on that.
