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 users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • 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.
    • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
    • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
    • Β 

    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 remove France.

    Thanks to all you goody-two-shoes, I finally made the switch, plopped out the proverbial blue buttplug if you will. I am fully on Linux/GNU Operating System 25.04. I'm having a kid soon so wasn't sure if I'd have time to make the switch, but just 300 unforgettable hours later, I'm riding the big purple penguin. I had some doubts, I was itching for that creamy feeling of big daddy Gates peering over my shoulder while I do the dirty. After my Windows VM crashed today, I knew I was at full parity with where I started, I literally got chills. Thanks everyone, I feel full again, wholly ;)

    --What distro did you install?--

    Nvm, I searched and it is Ubuntu 25.04 lol. I kept thinking there was a distro names "GNU Linus OS" that I never know about. So you're purely on Linux now, congrats. Was the majority of the installation time on transferring data?

    Ubuntu is a great distro, everything should work till forever if you dont mess around with system configs. Even if you like to tinker with system, Linux is easier to fix than Windows. Command lines can be scary at first but they really help.

    Have you found a good FOSS alternative to Windows Recall by chance?

    Hit the screenshot button often. Just gotta train yourself to screenshot often like they used to tell you to save documents.

    I'm very much into privacy/FOSS so I have an old school Polaroid with no Bluetooth, where I manually screenshot my porn every 5 seconds with my left hand. Then I've been sending the pile every day to Satya Nadella at Microsoft HQ, Seattle via Snail Mail.

    300 hours? What did you install?

    Edit: nm, didn't see the community name at first

    [–] [email protected] 26 points 23 hours ago (3 children)

    Installation took 1 hour. Converting all my powershell scripts took 10. Copying my yummies from NTFS to Ext5 took 290 hours, I had to watch each and every one to be sure.

    [–] [email protected] 6 points 22 hours ago

    That makes sense

    Yummies? What's that?

    Gnu/Linux 25.04 and oddly colored poultry confused me a little bit, but congratulations nonetheless!

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

    Going off the window decorations, I would say they are referring to Ubuntu 25.04

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago

    Yes, it's Linux Inc.'s newest OS.

    Congratulations! 🐧

    But my god, 300 hours is a lot.

    99% working in 10 hours. There's always that last little blue anal bead dingleberrying around.
