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 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.
    • 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.
    •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    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.

    All these Nvidia driver memes are why I haven't fully switched to Linux with my main rig (which is used solely for gaming). Servers, fuck yeah boy, Linux all the way. Stable as fuck and super lightweight. But I don't need those to render things in 3D at 60+ FPS.

    I also never got Wi-Fi drivers working until Ubuntu first came out and I tried it.

    That kinda shit makes it feel like a catch-22: some things don't work on Linux because nobody is developing that thing for Linux, and they aren't developing that thing for Linux because people who use that thing don't use Linux (because it's not there). Partially why I learned to code; sometimes I want something that doesn't exist so I must create it. Unfortunately, I am not learned enough to make drivers/wrappers. πŸ˜”

    The memes are extremely outdated at this point. I’ve been rocking Linux with a 3070 for the last year and a half and have only seen minor issues and major improvements. Not to say it’s perfect, but my issues have been more from me rocking arch Linux and breaking my system than Nvidia issues
