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 users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • 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 sudo in 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
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe 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.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • Β 

    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.

    Oracle linux, just tell them your carpet has an unlicensed database.

    [–] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 90 points 11 months ago (2 children)

    I was invited to a user group where oracle Linux was trying to get more adopters. The coolest thing they had was the ability to update a kernel driver while it was running. In place. Without downtime.

    I asked them if they planned on pushing this improvement to the kernel devs and they just gave me a blank face.

    Told me everything I needed to know about Oracle Linux. I promptly formatted the thumb drive they gave me for free.

    If they released it for free then Ubuntu wouldn't have Ubuntu Pro to sell subscriptions to.

    They want to clean the carpet, not lose the house.

    TempleOS is the one TRUE OS

    [–] ebolapie@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

    TempleOS is God's chosen OS, but I don't live at church. I use TempleOS to pray, and Hannah Montana Linux for personal tasks. That way I get the best of both worlds.

    Similar to a joke my dad told in the 90's

    If Microsoft ever makes a product that doesn't suck, it'll be a vacuum cleaner.

    Apparently it's Athena Linux. At least, that's what the hackable vacuums use.

    Installing on my fridge. Which one is the coolest?

    [–] cyborganism@lemmy.ca 29 points 11 months ago

    Kali Linux. All the kids talk about it. All the kids want to be with it.

    I'd say Manjaro but they'd probably DDOS your vacuum on accident.

    [–] SpatchyIsOnline@lemmy.world 37 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    ... My vacuum actually does run Linux.

    !It's a roborock with Valetudo installed so it doesn't need internet access!<

    [–] TrenchcoatFullofBats@belfry.rip 17 points 11 months ago (2 children)

    There are dozens of us! Mine is a Dreame D9 with a custom GLaDOS voice pack that I can change by updating a CVS file.

    RHEL because the best Linux is the one you pay for.

    Manjaro might be good, but you'll have to adjust the vacuum's clock every time you want to clean

    I want to install Linux on a Vacuum cleaner, which sucks the most?

    Nix-OS. Nix translates to "nichts" in german, which translates to "nothing" in english. A vacuum creates sucktion force.

    Also I get endless error messages sometimes, when I run nixos rebuild switch --upgrade, that sucks in a metaphorical sense, I need to modify the versions of programs I install.

    There was a Windows tablet I bought for PDFs only. It ran some terrible Windows 8 lite version. That would easily be the worst Linux distro.
