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 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.
  • 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, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, 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 remove France.

    I’m on fedora 41 and gaming is almost perfect on it, the final hurdles are some VRR refinements and HDR. These are supposedly coming in f42 so I’d rather not wait god knows how long on Debian for these features to show up. However once the features arrive and I run into issues with F42, I’ll consider Deb.

    I'm gaming pretty much daily, VR and flat, and... I don't even know what those abbreviations mean. I'm not saying these aren't important to you and other gamers but also want to suggest that a lot of "features" pushed by the industry are for other casual yet frequent gamers like me totally unimportant.

    Variable Refresh Rate - synchronizing your monitor's refresh rate with your computer's output, yielding a potentially smoother image and, for portable gamers, better battery life. This is a key feature of "Freesync" monitors, etc.

    refinements and HDR.

    High Dynamic Range - increase in the variability of light levels achievable in a scene, allowing monitors to better approach the dynamic light levels one would experience IRL (In Real Life). This is a key feature of most new displays, especially higher-end OLEDs (Organic Light Emitting Diodes, a type of display technology where pixels are individually lit)

    These are supposedly coming in f42

    Fedora 42 - the 42ndiest version of Fedora.

    Not an acronym, but abbreviation for Debian. Or perhaps OP lives in a Hallmark movie and Deb is the girl who has always been by their side, but they've never considered as a romantic partner... Until now...
