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!

    No, since I mainly use Windows and replace my laptop at least once every 10 years.

    • Windows XP: 2001-2014
    • Windows Vista: 2007-2017
    • Windows 7: 2009-2020
    • Windows 8: 2012-2023
    • Windows 10: 2015-2025
    • Windows 11: 2021-...

    TPM has existed in laptops since 2006

    Not particularly relevant. The only TPM that counts is TPM2, which was 2014 for the specification. Not even all "TPM 2.0" implementations are considered sufficient. Plenty of devices even in 2019 were being built without a TPM2 that would qualify for Windows 11, in part because the industry didn't know that it was about to be required, in part among those that tried not knowing their chosen implementation would still not qualify.
