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.

    Who is Linus and why does he Torvalds

    [–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 16 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (5 children)

    Ah, that's a interesting story actually.

    See, when he was a little kid, he fell a lot on his head and had quite a few concussions. The Swedish word for concussion is "torva", so they decided to change his sirname in order to scare the concussion daemons away. And that's why Linus can Toldvalds and why he's the only one that can Torvalds.

    Why do some specific Nvidia grafic cards require that you use legacy BIOS to start up your linux, while it works flawlessly on macOS using EFI??

    [–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

    Because Apple has money and revenue, and Linux doesn't.
