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!

    My former colleague was an Arch user and barely a week passed without him having major issues. My guess would be "no".

    You mean the one that helps you unfuck things... after the OS has started having issues again.

    The one that tells you what you can do and how to fix things if you messed up. It's a DIY distro.

    Arch generally works (based on the 3 machines I've tried it on) unless you change something and if you messed something up you can always roll it back if you're smart enough to have planned ahead and didn't wipe your backup.
