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.

    "Lets install Gentoo"
    "Why? It is very lightwei-"
    the computer bursts into flames while attempting to compile the kernel

    For real. Updating Firefox and LibreOffice on Gentoo can keep you warm for the whole day

    Yes - source:

    I almost installed arch once or twice

    [–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Not significantly more so than other full desktop environments

    oh okay I understand. here I was thinking I was crazy for thinking it ran better or similar to KDE plasma lol it makes sense that it'd be slower than pure terminal.

    It depends. Is the sky blue or the sun bright ? There is not straight answer to these questions neither. Everything is relative.

    But at what cost?

    (Besides, wouldn't building LFS keep the heat going longer?)

    [–] mkwt 1 points 1 year ago

    LFS is actually less heat per hour than Gentoo because the machine idles between builds while you look up and type in the next command.
