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

    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.

    My Windows 10 setup was extremely optimized and my favorite OS.

    I use Linux for my daily driver now, but every so often I have to dig out my (air gapped) Windows 10 laptop to do something and it’s just… nice.

    [–] Cris_Citrus@piefed.zip 25 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

    I'm sorry you lost your nice setup that you liked. I hope we see the day that you're able to have a setup you love just as much, that treats you well :)

    I really liked Windows 10 too. I loved the ergonomics of the desktop. The start menu with tiles was brilliant. The flat square windows that use every pixel of your screen. The close button that takes the whole corner.

    I could swing my mouse around and click without looking and knew exactly what I was hitting.

    Then after a few years they enshittified it just before Windows 11.

    [–] testaccount789@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

    What if it's something cursed like Proxmox on a laptop with KDE Plasma installed on host, NAT set up for VMs to use WiFi, passing wayland windows over waypipe through vsock and launching programs using manually created shortcuts which start the programs over SSH (because it can be done)?

    With the powers combined of Arch and Drugs I remain totally fuckin' average! Checkmate.

    [–] i_stole_ur_taco@lemmy.ca 36 points 2 months ago (2 children)

    I dunno if this is very accurate. I run Debian and I’m dumb as shit.

    [–] swagmoney@lemmy.ca 15 points 2 months ago

    +1 dumb Debian user checking in

    [–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

    It's one step away from ubuntu /s (kinda)

    I was gonna fix my backups, but I got high.
    I was gonna be able to restore, but then I got high.
    Now I lost all my crap, and I know why! (Why man?) Because I got high, because I got high, because I got high.

    [–] zarathustrad@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

    Arch or Mutha Fn DE-BAY-ANN!

    Edit:

    We ain't gonna sell none of these muthafuckin' Operating systems cuz

    Let's go back to Debian and compile some more kernels, cuz

    Fuck it

    Fuck the corporate world, biatch

    [–] osanna@lemmy.vg 22 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

    There’s a distro called drugs?? I’ve never heard of it

    [–] jim3692@discuss.online 11 points 2 months ago (5 children)

    It's actually called NixOS (talking from personal experience)

    This implies 2030 will be the year of Linux desktop

    [–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

    Just like every year since 2004.

    [–] turbowafflz@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

    no the windows and macos users just won't need to talk because copilot and ai siri will have their arguments for them

    [–] DahGangalang@infosec.pub 15 points 2 months ago (2 children)

    Hmmm, I don't think I've ever tried DrugsOS. Can you link to their site?

    [–] trackball_fetish@lemmy.wtf 14 points 2 months ago

    FreeBSD and PCP

    Where do I stand since I smoke a shit ton of weed and use debian?

    [–] Fives@discuss.online 9 points 2 months ago (3 children)

    What if I run both Arch and Debian?

    [–] fartsparkles@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

    Found the Qubes user.

    [–] Siegfried@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

    I do this... am i weird? I mean, i am... but am i because of that?

    [–] sneezycat@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 months ago (3 children)

    Nah, I also do; arch on my desktop and laptop, debian on my server.

    Unless... we're both weird... I mean, I'm also weird... but because of unrelated reasons?

    [–] Fives@discuss.online 4 points 2 months ago

    Exactly. Arch on my laptops and desktop, Debian on my server.

    This is the way.

    [–] skarn@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 months ago

    Are you... Me?

    [–] Siegfried@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

    Na, my daily work is on debian, i just play on arch

    I don't hate release models, I hate the elites. And no, I don't mean the Gentoo folks

    [–] Sonotsugipaa@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

    That's understandable. The Sangheili were responsible for almost wiping our species out, after all.

    [–] texture@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

    you can definitely do a lot of drugs and use arch btw

    [–] irelephant@anarchist.nexus 1 points 1 month ago
