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!

    Agreed but it is easy to copy paste terminal commands.

    Not so convincing if you're just a causal user that has to trust random strangers with a unknown command that could just bork your whole OS.

    Not wrong. Luckily I can read Bash at a middle school level lol. When in doubt, don't.

    Assuming you can find one that actually does what you want

    I mean, it obviously depends on what you're doing, but usually it's easier to find the right command than the right GUI, because implementing a CLI is a magnitude less work than implementing a GUI...

    Easy, you just spin up a new instance for each tutorial you find, copy paste all of them, and keep whichever is still working
