Sister communities:


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!

    It enables automatic security updates. You could also enable automatic updates for all, not just security. Basically have the system run the meme commands for you.

    That's interesting, I didn't know this can be configured in one line. When I searched how to configure unattended-upgrades myself I only found long solutions.

    I'm sure there are longer solutions as well. This is straight up from the Ubuntu wiki. If you want to configure it differently, e.g. do all updates, not just security, you probably have to change some more vars in the apt config files.
