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!

    I would seriously recommend you use gentoo for a bit. It is not user friendly, you use the command line constantly, the install process is mostly manual. But nothing teaches you the fundamentals like using it.

    Now, personally I did this on a second PC as a home server hobby. Dunno if I'd recommend it for a novice wanting a desktop experience.

    "Hey I need this to be user friendly and simple."

    "Use not insert user friendly distro so you can get better even though you're probably one of the 99% of humanity that doesn't need their computer for more than dicking around on a web browser and couldn't give less of a fuck about OS's and computers."

    This is why no one wants to use fucking Linux.

    "You should learn more about your computer and use linux"

    "GO AWAY, BAITIN'!"

    That's why no one wants to use fucking Linux.
