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!

    macOS: there are very few issues, but when you encounter one, it’s impossible to fix

    Linux: there are lots of issues, and but they are all fixable, but each fix might be a rabbit hole of figuring out how to compile someone’s GitHub project they seemingly abandoned 4 years ago.

    But boy oh boy, do you learn things from those rabbit holes. It can be a MASSIVE pain, but I enjoy that I'm at least picking up XP points whenever I make time to fix stuff and learn more.

    XP points

    You need to upgrade to 11 Points. XP reached EOL a long time ago.

    I knew I was walking right into that one and I'm just glad somebody went for it. Well played bro hahaha.

    I did theme my KDE to look like XP on my laptop though...I miss the aesthetic, but maybe not a bunch of other things that have gotten infinitely better since then. :)

    Honestly the only issues I run into on macOS are things that I'm probably doing to waste time anyway, like enable some random feature or setting that might be useful 1 in 1000 use cases and when that use case rolls around I'd have forgotten about the feature and end up doing it manually anyway.

    Windows: there are very few issues, but all of them are possible to fix if you're willing to brave regedit and some random IT guy's instructions from 12 years ago on a now defunct forum
