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.

    There are administration tools available for system deployment but they're generally closed source and limited to the software selection available.

    Unsure about command line, but PC Decrapifier is useful for removing preloaded software.

    Ninite is useful to install software in batch.

    Ninite can also install Malwarebytes, which is quite useful.

    Between Windows Defender and Malwarebytes I generally don't recommend anything else. And then Malwarebytes, which is extremely effective for free, is the only security suite worth paying for if you want to "set it and forget it".

    On the Microsoft side of things, a great deal of software can be deployed via command line.

    It's possible to build an offline installer for Office and Office 365 for example via the office deployment tool.

    Additionally, it looks like if you pay for Ninite Pro, it supports command line.
