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!

    Right out of the box it functions enough like Windows that even my wife swapped with barely a hiccup

    To be fair, you can say the same thing about KDE.

    Tried out fedora and it was really good, but mint just felt a little bit more right to me

    Which sucks cuz I fuckin own a fedora like a massive nerd and wanted to make that joke as often as possible. I mean I grow mint too but big fucking whoop it's a dollar to get a plant and near impossible to kill

    Oh I definitely like the idea of Mint, but for gaming I need a distro that keeps itself up to date more often, especially when it comes to graphics drivers and Proton, etc.

    Could you explain the highlighted bolted part for me? Is that a typo, or some kind of gardening term?

    Yahh, i think they are joking about the hat and the plant

    That mint ain't going nowhere

    No I get they are being tongue and cheek, I just don't literally understand the meaning of using the word 'nest' and 'impossible to kill' together in a sentence.

    "near impossible to kill"

    Autocorrect and my lack of proofreading foiled me

    Ah, okay. I was wondering if some new thing I just hadn't heard of. Thanks.
