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

  • 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.

    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.

    Doesn't matter what hardware you throw at windows it will still run like a bag of shit.

    Can relate.

    There was a brief period of time (roughly 2006-2015ish) when the best Windows machine was a Mac and that will never not be funny to me. I think it was PC Magazine that ranked the MacBook Pro specifically as the best machine for Vista sometime around 2008.

    CPU optional.

    Imagine opening a pizza box to just find an old potato. πŸ˜‹

    ... aaas long your potato has a processor better than a 486 anyway.

    Steep requirements. Linux has changed :(

    [–] mech@feddit.org 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    ... aaand you're trying to run the newest kernel on it for some reason.

    [–] palordrolap@fedia.io 4 points 2 weeks ago

    Listen, I'm convinced the next kernel will finally fix the bug that in rare circumstances causes my potato to spontaneously mash itself and start whistling dixie.

    ... or maybe I'm confusing my potato with my brain again.

    [–] cley_faye@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

    The beauty of it, in a way, is that if someone really relies on support for that, there might be way to fork the kernel to keep supporting it. It might be a big initial task, but then again, maybe not. Support was there up until very recently, and if you have such specific requirements, you might have the skill/resources to just maintain it. It's not like you'd have to start from scratch.

    Potato on pizza may be unusual, but I like it. I'm not so sure about grubs though.

    [–] AliasVortex@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

    Seconding the potato on pizza; my college job had a pizza by the slice place right around the corner that made a baked potato pizza (potato slices, green onions, and bacon) that was way better than it had any right to be.

    That Linux PC magically attracts all cats in a 5 mile radius.

    My friend used to have a pc in a cardboard box, but it had a separate monitor. Also you had to turn it on twice; the first time it would crash...
