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.

    Okay what is the Tux Jigsaw Puzzle one?

    Also Gentoo?

    [–] AngryPancake 27 points 1 year ago (2 children)

    Linux from scratch, a subdivision of really having nothing else to do

    [–] Veneroso 2 points 11 months ago

    Thanks for clarifying

    Wait, I thought LFS was long dead (as a project). Maybe I'm thinking of DSL though. Off to teh googles...

    [–] aberrate_junior_beatnik 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    DSL

    What is this? I'm going to be lazy and not search for it because DSL already has multiple meanings which overlap with Linux

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

    Damn Small Linux, and DSL is dead. LFS lives on though.

    Tux Jigsaw is "Linux from Scratch." It's not really a distro, but rather a guide that walks you through configuring an entire Linux distro from the ground up.

    Gentoo is a distro focused on compiling pretty much everything from source locally.

    Yeah, honestly you can replace Arch with Gentoo. Arch is for when you don't have a life for an afternoon or two while you're getting set up. After that it's smooth.

    The Gentoo forums were a great help when I mained Gentoo. It's been years, needed windows to play WoW to avoid the bans at the time.

    Anyway yeah it was fun trying to figure out why it broke or what portage dependency blew up.
