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.

    Your fault, bro. Just install Linux. I use Arch, BTW.

    My favorite part of Arch is reinstalling it over and over again. That first successful boot after the install gives too much dopamine.

    Just had to reinstall arch 3 times yesterday, since the installation script fucked up the partitioning.

    Reinstall nr1(manually, since the script didn't work): I forgot to add users and couldn't log into my machine Reinstall nr2(manually): my mirror lists was so fucked up that I couldn't install or update packages(there also were some missing databases) Reinstall nr3(script) : finally everything worked.

    What's the point of installing Arch if you don't do it manually
