Sister communities:


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!

    Time to activate Linux with sketchy activation scripts

    [–] Baalial@lemm.ee 10 points 2 months ago (2 children)

    Just a one-liner as root, and you're done.

    Root account unavailable, you have not activated the premium account for this Linux installation, please activate by purchasing it for a $5 monthly subscription

    [–] Baalial@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

    Oh it's subscription based, ok. I have a flash drive for that. Helps me erase the OS and put a whole new one in.

    The installation media you're attempting to install on this hardware is not supported and does not follow our privacy protection policy, please contact our support team for further assistance

    EDIT: damn I feel like I should get hired by Microsoft or some other sh#t company because I'm getting good at this anti consumer crap

    Bro this notification popped up, and for a couple of seconds I didn't see that it was lemmy, I didn't remember this convo, I just saw the anti-consumer corpo speak and I almost lost my shit. I was straight up furious and I hit the notification to come in here and verbally crap in your mouth.

    So yeah, you should look into a career with Micockssoft 🤣
