Sister communities:


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.

    To enable the webcam on windows you just...open teams and start a call or use one of the apps that use the camera...

    Unless the vendor decided to lock it down until you manually unlock it with the administrator account. Then even Teams can't see it.

    It is almost like those Linux users are not really as technologically capable as they claim to be.

    Or they are just lying and haven't used Windows in over a decade.

    Even on Linux, to use the webcam you just plug it and open gnome cheese or Google meets...

    Ok great so the webcam works easy without researching on both OSes.

    Unlike what arthurpizza claims.
