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.

    It took a lot of work, but I've created the definitive Linux distro flowchart (lemmy.world)

    What if I don’t want to use whatever I want? What if I want my distro forced upon me?

    I've decided that you have to use Slackware

    Thank you sir. May I have another?

    [–] Untitled_Pribor@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Yes, you have to use Softlanding Linux System. You can't go back to Slackware

    You must use all these systems as VMs under Proxmox

    It's been a long time since I've played around with Slackware, wonder how it's doing lately. Might need to find an extra machine to throw it on.

    Wow, 1.3 was fun, as was RedHat 4.2 (guessing,. version on infomagix nov '95 CD set, can't find it now). Most fun though was kicking them off and dumping Debian on there early '96. (yeah, ~~fan boy~~ lazy admin that doesn't want re-installs for major upgrades)

    Lol, this is exactly what happened to me

    [–] victron@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago
