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.

    Are you recording a video of a picture

    [–] jawa21@startrek.website 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

    Yep. That's the monitor screen - last legs at best. At the point where distro hopping is impossible because the main screen is unusable and I can't even use GRUB anymore.

    If it's a monitor or you can just replace it. The computer is still good Edit:typo

    I tried this with an ancient laptop and the port broke physically but yes I agree with modern laptops if you got a dock option utilize it.

    I can't help you, but where do you have the wallpaper from?

    [–] jawa21@startrek.website 1 points 10 months ago

    It is one of the mecha Tux wallpapers that were made for the Nobara distro. I believe I just grabbed it from inside KDE, but it has been a while.
