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!


    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 would never criticise someone’s distro. As long as it was arch built without any scripts.

    This pleb didn't even write his own kernel.

    If you don't use Linux From Scratch, why do you even bother?

    I actually want to try a LFS install, mostly to gain a deeper understanding of how Linux works. To anyone who's done an LFS install: good idea or waste of time?

    Learning things is always a great idea if you have time and interest.

    I've always heard it was a good idea, but I've never been able to complete it. The idea of maintaining after install just does not sound appealing

    I'd rather be waterboarded

    Just did that for the first time today and the second, third and ,fourth time aswell
