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!

    You know you can just download arbitrary ttf files to ~/.fonts

    You don't need to install them system wide. That's where my Comic Sans and Gnommish fonts live

    Except ~/.fonts isn't XDG Base Directory compliant. You should put them in ${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}/fonts instead so as to not pollute your home directory with dotfiles.

    Using the spec makes it simpler to deal with backups.

    True, I tried to customize a sddm theme and you need fonts installed likewise.
