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.

    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.

    Is it possible to remap the copilot key on the new computers back to the control key? I keep pressing it to skip words, but end up needing to use two hands now.

    I'm on Aurora and while I got it mostly working now, I would not call it user friendly.

    English hard, apparently.

    I fucking hate this thing that's becoming more and more common. Obvious bad grammar and spelling mistakes in memes like this, it's become the rule rather than the exception in just the past year. And I'm certain it's rarely not done on purpose, it's the same with post and video titles both here, reddit, youtube etc. It gets clicks and comments and people fucking suck so they do it with no shame.

    Although I agree in spirit, there is a bloatfree version of windows 11 called LTSC.

    Makes me one happy windows user.

    Unfortunately I have to do both ;n;

    ... or at least I will have to when I try to get my homemade game engine working on Windowsintoyourbrowsinghistory 11

    I'd just rather use Windows and not have to deal with my games not being supported, explaining to people how to print a word document or have to mess with wifi drivers.

    Left thing is the right thing

    Really?

    Because nothing I use works in Linux or at least doesn't easily.

    My 10 year old Logjtech mouse doesn't work, at all, until I Google how to make it work.

    Then there's OneNote, which syncs directly with every machine, no server required.

    Or excel - got Tables in Libre office yet? You know, what 97% of people use Excel for?

    I could go on for days. At every turn, Linux is inferior to Windows as a desktop.

    And I use Linux every day as a server: Truenas, Proxmox, Freedombox, Rpi, etc. It's briliant for purpose-built systems.

    Actually Windows is much more convenient to use, if you just log-in everywhere and use it as a "normal human". The thing is we don't like companies taking our lifes, we demand freedom, thats why windows is a hell for us, but for most its convenient.

    User-friendly Linux distro is a myth.

    There's no beginner friendly Linux OS, but.......if you willing to learn a thing or two about linux (at least know how to install programs, updating system, & install your favorite Windows program on wine bc you can't find equivalent linux program) i think you'll loved Linux so much because it's so flexible.
    If you encounter errors, don't worry, there's answer how to fix it, all you need is Google/DuckDuckGo
