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!

    Terminal is great until you paste a command from an online tutorial and it doesn't do what it is suppose to.

    Do su rm -rf / to fix all issues you have

    Just for those who are not aware don't do this. This is equivalent to deleting system32.

    They're aren't meant to work. They're meant to make us feel pride and accomplishment.

    Here's a novel idea, read what you're about to paste and try to understand what it does at least on high level. You can man each command to check what it does and whether the parameters provided make sense.

    I wrecked my kernel and rendered wifi unusable doing this just last week!

    Hah! I can do all that without an online tutorial!
