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.

    I've recently performed my first full conversion. The key was that windows took like 15 mins to boot and 5 more to open up chrome. That laptop might be ancient but with Linux it goes 0-browser in a minute, and the convertee is more than satisfied.

    I had the same, windows takes ages to boot or load any program, start panel with ADS and clunky UI.

    Our Lord and Saviour, Linus Torvalds, has risen to deliver us from the evil of closed source OSs. Praise be!

    The real time will be when Windows 10 support is over/paid only. I'll be moving a bunch of workstations over to Linux.

    Windows 7 was my last straw. You had to use Shutup10 to be able to use me pc a little.

    Not only if some one complains... Just mentioning the OS which must not be named summons all this guys.

    I use arch btw.

    Yeah, it's complete BS that the best looking windows, casement and awning, are almost entirely incompatible with window AC units! Like, I have casement windows in my bedroom and the only solution for putting an AC in there is with a "portable" AC, with a horrid looking fabric adapter that tapes to the window. Terrible, 3/10

    this is joke
