- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- 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.
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
sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
- Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
4. No recent reposts

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.

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 remove France.

Am I the only one with a PC of Theseus? Like the case is ancient but some of the parts are a year old
Oldest part on my machine is yer mum. She keeps riding it despite the occasional short circuit
No, I still have my old CoolerMaster HAF X. That thing is huge compared to modern ATX cases
That was the plan, but i haven't been able to afford an upgrade since i bought it. i was going to buy a ssd
Oldest part in my pc is a 7 year old SSD.
chuggles - I'm in danger - of data loss.
I burnt the "trustworthy life-left" of a 256GiB NVMe disk in approx 6 years by writting 25 TiB onto it. :D It still works, but doesn't hold any important data.
I however do fear the day one of the 1TiB spinning rust disks, in RAID1, die. I created the array in 2020 but the disks are nearly twice as old. (~12 years) There is stuff from WinXp era on those disks that I as a young wipper snaper once developed - irreplaceable.
