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!

    yay -Syu --devel

    You don't need the -Syu, it's the same as yay --devel

    Something new every day, I'm prone to assuming pacman and by extension yay will do weird things if I don't have the correct number of us and is.

    man yay

    If no operation is specified 'yay -Syu' will be performed

    It has been this way for years. RTFM.

    Sorry, I misinterpreted the intent and tone of your comment. Was only trying to be helpful and save you some keystrokes, carry on.

    Edit: lol my app kept telling me it failed to post the comment but it posted it every time. Wish it wouldn't show the deleted comments.
