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.

    The community told me that using Arch would turn me into a cute femboy. It's been a decade and I'm still as large and hairy as I was back then.

    My question is who should I sue for this false advertisement?

    [–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 26 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (4 children)

    Linus. He is responsible for making Linux, in general, so Arch had to use that kernel. If Linux never existed, you might've naturally become a femboy.

    Why is it that ever since upgrading Fedora I need to restart the pipewire daemon every time I plug/unplug headphones or else media freezes?

    [–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 102 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

    Because the sound goes through pipes and you need to let them rest, otherwise they might burst from the sound pressure.

    Why do Linux users hate Nvidia?

    [–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 80 points 10 months ago (2 children)

    Because Nvidia hates Linux users. They're just returning the favor.

    [–] Tartas1995@discuss.tchncs.de 51 points 10 months ago

    That is surprisingly accurate

    [–] VinesNFluff@pawb.social 29 points 10 months ago (1 children)

    That's literally just correct. Are you sure you don't know your Linux lore?

    Can Linux be used as a sex toy?

    That is what happens when none of your alphabet keys on your keyboard are working, but you still wanna communicate online.

    Which one is it?

    “Ask me anything about it and I’ll try to answer”

    OR

    “Ask me anything about IT and I’ll try to answer”

    [–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 43 points 10 months ago

    Take your pick, I'm feeling generous today.

    Can you explain network sockets to me?

    [–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 50 points 10 months ago (3 children)

    They're just regular sockets that do most of the work... the net thing is just added to complicate things.

    So someone suggested to me that Linux is amazing for gaming.

    I decided to split boot and installed Mint and attempted to play Forza Horizon 5. It literally runs like a potato. Also my Logitech steering wheel doesn't work and has major input lag.

    Since you know so little about Linux, my question is what are you having for dinner?

    How do I change the language to EN-US on redstar os?

    [–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 39 points 10 months ago (2 children)

    You don't. It's designed to be unchagable. Only the supreme leader can change that.
