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!


    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 fork-bomb your computer.

    Crazy, rich South Africans is how we got Ubuntu

    But would you like to upgrade to Ubuntu pro?

    [–] [email protected] 17 points 5 months ago (8 children)

    Ubuntu pro is not at all a bad thing. It's free to consumers but you can also just ignore it if you don't need it.

    The ssh prompt? I think you just need to mess with the files in /etc/update-motd.d

    The prompt on the desktop that says there and pending updates that can only be installed with Pro.

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

    I've been using Ubuntu for about 3, years now on the desktop and I don't know what you're talking about. Where exactly is that prompt? And they're not hiding updates behind pro, it's just extra on top of the updates you'd get on other distros.
