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.

    I need to dual boot Windows for my stupid Xbox games and stupid Office that don't run in Wine. 😭

    I know you probably mean newer Xbox games, but check out xemu if you like retro titles.

    Steam and Lutris are amazing 😎

    I actually do but I'm slowly getting used to LibreOffice 🙂

    Btw, you can choose something Ribbon-like or tabs in view > user interface (or similiar, it's Benutzeroberfläche hier).

    Virtualization is your friend

    Gamepass isn't for me, but dual booting for it is understandable. But office? I've found LibreOffice and OnlyOffice are usually "good enough," and if you really need true MS Office, I believe they offer web editors now

    [–] 5PACEBAR 2 points 8 months ago

    The web editor isn't nearly as good as their desktop app counterpart. LibreOffice is fine for basic usage, but Excel is still king if you're using any kind of advanced feature.
