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.

My PC: β€œOh, you touched /etc/fstab? Fuck you”

Users should never have to fiddle with the fstab manually. It’s a shame the internet is still pointing to it when asked most of the time instead of explaining the GUI disk tools. Or at least some CLI management tool in case that one exists.

This is the correct mindset to have when trying to push Linux as a viable alternative to the big two.

If you make more things easy for newcomers and just anyone in general, you’ll eventually get more users, and a larger base that then correlates to higher overall usage of Linux. You know, like those screenshots of the Linux install base we see every now and then?

You don’t have to keep Linux behind arbitrary lines, but for some reason, that’s all we like to do.

Wrong. You just need to know what you’re doing and must not be impatient. Just spend 5 damn minutes reading before you do the thing. We don’t always need unnecessary abstractions upon abstractions upon abstractions.

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 β€œevery user of thing”.
  • Don’t get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of β€œpeasantry” 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.
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.
