1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • 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.
    • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
    • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.

    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 remove France.

    Inaccurate.

    If you're a Linux user why wouldn't you unlock MacOS' potential by using the command line? MacOS is UNIX based, so you have access to its guts, just as you would any other UNIX based system.

    [–] VeryVito@lemmy.ml 44 points 1 week ago

    Exactly. MacOS is the best of both worlds; it’s my absolute favorite distro of BSD.

    [–] ccunning@lemmy.world 34 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    It’s not just UNIX based; it is a certified UNIX OS:

    Because I'm not going to willingly give my creative efforts over to a corporation that will hold it hostage and only allow me to work so long as I'm using only their products.

    I mean, yeah, screw using Logic but most major DAWs run on macOS as well as Windows. Up until Linux pulls its finger out its arse on audio it's pawbably going to stay a macOS dominated industry.

    [–] bridgeenjoyer@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago

    Until waves plugins run well on linux it will never be a mainstream audio os.

    [–] Natanox@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Not a problem with Linux. Pipewire works great and offers everything you need from an audio backend, there are great DAWs like Bitwig and Reaper and a good collection of compatible plugins as well. The main problem is hardware, which isn't the fault of Linux but hardware manufacturers.

    [–] princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 week ago

    It's easy to make that claim, but this has happened to me without even using ASIO, so it's using the common standard audio interface mode.

    /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

    Homebrew, plus some VMs, and you get the best of all platforms in one computer.

    This used to be particularly awesome when macOS was intel based, as now running an intel based machine image on apple's ARM architecture is awkward by comparison, but hopefully that will resolve somewhat soon.

    [–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Apple silicon is sick. I'm salivating for a Linux distro dedicated to Apple M chips.

    [–] Natanox@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    You mean Asahi?

    [–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

    I believe that's the name of the project. It's early days and I can't wait until it is properly developed.

    [–] StrixUralensis@tarte.nuage-libre.fr 2 points 1 week ago

    but hopefully that will resolve somewhat soon

    By converting everyone to ARM !!!!
