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.

    Don't forget us dyslexics though! Cli is rough on that, but gui tends to avoid the errors a typo can cause.

    I swear, having to copy/paste stuff in terminal to avoid typing the damn commands five times is way less convenient.

    I get it, Linux veterans love the terminal because it is efficient and capable. But there's multiple reasons for a gui interface for common tasks, accessibility being the biggest.

    Maybe some of those answers can help you

    A lot of Linux users love the terminal because it's archaic and makes them stand out from the crowd.

    Every thread has people conducting autofellatio by mentioning that one time they opened the terminal in front of Windows users and got called hackers.
