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.
- 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, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

Do y'all only have one kernel installed?
vmlinuz vmlinuz.old vmlinuz.old.old vmlinuz.old.old.old vmlinuz.borken
I'm sure one of these boots and has a Nvidia module that matches user space!
Yes. If I ever need something else because something unforeseen happened (which has not happened for years, and I use a non-default one), I can boot up from a live USB and fix things.
I use arch btw.
I also use Arch btw. I have an lts kernel installed just in case. Came in handy when the amdgpu driver was broken for a week. The screen was flashing on Wayland.
Which LTS kernel do you have installed? I'm shopping around
On Arch it's just linux-lts I think. 6.12 is the current version I believe. In any case, I only need to use it when something breaks which is rare.
