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.
  • ย 

    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.

    Oh look at me I bought the ~~best~~ worst product...

    ... for use with Linux

    FTFY

    NVidia being the worst choice for Linux is hardly news.

    Valve invests billions of dollars and loses money on 4M decks and everyone is screaming success ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

    EA resold more copies of Skyrim on switch.

    You're the one who bought the wrong tool (NVidia GPU) for the job. Blame nobody but yourself. Intel and AMD is fine since at least 15 years.

    No, I didn't. I have a faster GPU at a lower price with my timing and I can play every single one of my games. It's easy and I don't have to do shit. I don't have to make sure drm doesn't work and I don't have to find some utility it script to get DPI resolution scaling working. You're just pouty because Linux isn't a good solution for a large chunk of users.
