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!

    I have to if I want to use linux at work =[ I agree, I hate it

    Damn, why don't they let you install something else?

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    Linux support is brand new and they want a small subset of things that they can be sure are compliant =[

    Can you atleast install Flatpaks and GNOME Extensions? AFAIK these don't require root. Distrobox might also work.

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    Yeah I can install whatever I want, I do have root, we just have an agent that checks certain things before allowing VPN access.

    So I do have konsole and Kate installed, but yakuake doesn't work very well with gnome and I need my drop down terminal

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    I see. Sorry for you that you have to use GNOME. But check out Guake if you're looking for a Quake-style terminal. Tilix also has a Quake mode. I'm glad I found a fellow Quake-style terminal enjoyer :) I actually need to use macOS for work and I'm very thankful I found an option in iTerm2 for a dropdown terminal. I honestly can't live without one.

    Yeah I use guake, but it doesn't have the Ctrl shift k that I miss that was the point of this thread =D

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

    Right I kinda missed that
