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 did, by pushing really hard in random directions =/ I'm going to have to take it apart and clean things with a hope that it gets fixed. Until then, I'm going to have to only use sleep and not turn it off for real.

    I got the power button of my laptop repaired at an electronics repair shop, you could try that. It has been running well for 8 years with Arch.

    How much did it cost? This laptop needs other repairs.

    I can't remember, but something negligible compared to the price of a thin laptop.
