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.

    My first Linux install, I downloaded some tutorial from somewhere, can't remember where (maybe someone on IRC shared it πŸ€”... IDK, I can't remember), and this is litelarly what it said πŸ˜‚.

    You have to be prepared when installing Linux. Take a week or two off work or school and make sure you have the following things at your disposal.

    • Find as many bootable floppy's and as many different dostro CDs as possible. Why? The boot floppy from Debian might work with Suse, but not the Debian CD.

    • Make sure you have at least two CD drives and floppy drives at your disposal. The more, the better. Why? You'll probably burn out the first ones while trying to figure out which boot floppy goes with which distro.

    • Have coffee at your disposal all the time. You're at the bottom of the pot? Pour that in your mug and put a new one on the kettle.

    • Stock up on as many different kinds of alcohol you can find, preferably strong stuff. Trust me, you'll need it.

    Typical of many online tutorials, full of typos and errors.

    That's because they were probably drunk when writing the tutorial πŸ˜‚.
