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!

    Older WIndows, this is true. That was an advantage since Windows would think it was the only OS and behave somewhat if you set it up right. But newer Windows can browse Linux fine (may depend on the format). I can see my Ubuntu partition with my Win10 without extra software, which I did need in Win8.

    That makes sense, considering Microsoft shoehorned the Linux kernel into NT. It's been several years since I've tried to look at a Linux filesystem from Windows, so I'm not surprised they've updated it now. I do wonder if it can see ZFS or BTRFS, but I don't care enough to look into it lol.
