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!

    Shell is amazing for big, batch jobs or a complex thing done in one or two lines.

    GUI is great for poking around at options, visualizing your files and file structure and making edits to one or two things at a time. There are a few batch tasks that work great, like the Batch Renamer in MATÉ DE. You get a preview of how your file will change before you apply it and can easily undo it if you fuck up.

    You can cram "VIM mode" into whatever IDE you like, but you'll never do it as well as terminal vim.

    I’ve crammed so much stuff into my vim packages folder it’s better than any IDE.
