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.

    Uptime ~30 years

    Too generous for Gentoo.

    "Maybe if I tweak the kernel config juuuuust a little bit today" "Is it just me or did this particular version of gcc make the kernel 0.0002% slower? I need to do some tests" "...Dunno, it just feels slower today, I guess I need to recompile the whole system"

    Uptime: 30 minutes, tops

    True I didn't take this into account. On the other hand we have systemd soft-reboot now.

    [–] netchami@sh.itjust.works 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    Gentoo users don't use systemd.

    Bold assumption you did here...

    [–] netchami@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago

    Most Gentoo users use OpenRC.
