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!

    Interesting, I've installed it on quite a few machines now, all with widely varying hardware. Aside from my development/gaming rig I've got a shop laptop which is used by various goons to view shop drawings and look up parts, one the ex-wife still hasn't managed to break, one is my 9 year old daughter's and another is a potato that runs my 3d printer (to be fair this one is fossilized and doesn't get updates).

    All are working great with no setup effort and no maintenance so I guess it's a classic case of YMMV. I wouldn't have used Arch for any of those use cases except maybe the 3d printer.
