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.

    Flatpak doesn't conform to the XDG home directory, and that upsets me. Also we have an ongoing dispute between SI and IEC units on their GitHub. But I like it otherwise.

    The way the flatpak devs responded to the xdg base dir request made me not ever going to use flatpak again, fuck them.

    Oh, no, it's Patrick (tingping). He is very stubborn and doesn't listen to reason. https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/5504

    I really wished that he didn't participate in the XDG problem, but he did. Then the IEC issue is probably also be screwed in the end.

    I didn't know flatpak was using MB instead of MiB, ever since I moved to linux most apps I've used report MiB instead.

    Edit: I checked my CLI tools because the guy said that CLI tools are all over the place, the only one that doesn't use MiB is lf.

    Edit2: I lost my shit when I checked the profile of patrick and the first thing in the description says gnome developer, holy shit this can't be lmao.
