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!

    Used to for one package - stupid tax filing software that won't run under Wine, likely because it's shitty garbage that was written in VB. The forms don't reflow properly.

    I had enough of the two systems trying to clobber each other's bootloaders and this year am running Tiny10 in a VM instead. The forms STILL don't reflow properly in anything except for VMWare. Don't ask me why, it's financial software and it always comes out broken and is patched just in time to file before the deadline.

    Steam's Proton and modern AMD drivers have been super effective in allowing me to do all my gaming on Linux now, and all my dev work always was. Don't see much reason for Windows these days.
