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!

    I got my merit badge after setting it up once. That's enough for me.

    Did the same. I pretty much had to redo every single step, sometimes multiple times, because I did not fully understand what I was doing. But I had a running system in the end with everything working as far as I could tell.

    Then I immediately formatted everything and installed Endeavor, because I just didn't trust myself not having done anything wrong.

    It did help with understanding though. Some things aren't as scary anymore and I understand the arch wiki much better now.
