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.

    One of the last conversations I had on Reddit was with a guy complaining about how crap Linux is, that he installed Ubuntu and the desktop didn't even work, it went straight to a terminal, and after some prodding he said that he couldn't even get APT to work, and it hit me: "You didn't install Ubuntu Core, their embedded OS version, did you?" No response.

    To be fair on the guy, Canonical's website is corporate sewage. finding the right ISO is a chore.

    I politely disagree. Finding the Core ISO is harder than the Server/Desktop ones. https://ubuntu.com/download/core

    There's a Build Your Core button. And that takes you to a docs page that lets you download a pre-built image. I think it's pretty obvious that this is not the Desktop Ubuntu.

    Vector databases as the data foundation for generative AI applications

    is what I see when I go to ubuntu.com on mobile. Seriously? Where is the ISO Canonical?! Why do I have to open the menu and choose Products -> Ubuntu OS -> Ubuntu Desktop to reach the ISO?

    The money comes from corporate customers, that's the sad truth. If you go to RedHat's website, their Worsktation option is hidden in menus as well. Fedora doesn't seem to be mentioned at all.
