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.

    Can't I go one week without having to uninstall and reinstall the damn deb file?

    I just tried opening discord a minute ago and got that lmao. Since I am on fedora I can't use the deb file. Often pointing around on my system I found where all the discord files are and I made a script that downloads the discord .tar.gz file and moves all the files to the right places. Every time I get the prompt I run the script and it updates discord for me (:

    #! /usr/bin/sh
    
    wget -O discord.tar.gz "https://discord.com/api/download/stable?platform=linux&format=tar.gz"
    tar -xvf discord.tar.gz
    rm -rf discord.tar.gz
    sudo rm -rf /lib64/discord
    sudo mv Discord /lib64/discord
