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!

    Ugh this is me rn. Spent like 30 minutes trying to figure out how to get NixOS to request a new DHCP lease. Reconnecting to the network? Nope, same IP. dhclient? Nope, not on NixOS. systemd-networkd? Keeps throwing some weird error. The solution? Just reboot the damn computer.

    Is one lesson not to use Linux on Apple hardware?

    Oh no! I'm on a Rog Zephyrus!

    That being said, my M1 Mac is kinda a paper weight until Asahi Linux gets further along. For now it's my back-up device as I get more familiar with Linux! The hardware was nice, but I've certainly appreciated being able to play games!

    that's kind of ironic these days. 10 years ago it was more likely to be able to play on mac than Linux, since games with Linux ports likely also had mac ports. but then you have games like league of legends that have a native mac version but not Linux.

    oh how times have changed.

    Oh for sure! It's strange assuming my Linux device "just works" when it comes to games. Where as getting Diablo4 running on my ARM macbook was a really involved task. Personally, I'd like Apple to be more inviting and open to developers using different Graphics APIs so I could play games on the device, but that's kinda like asking a dog to speak.
