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 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!

    Manufacturers install Windows as the default OS. And it's safe to assume that a modern gaming PC would have W11 pre-installed.

    And this is why we build own pcs

    Unless you install Windows it shouldn't be preinstalled

    It'd be nice if an OS pre installation option was available in the manufacturer's website. I'm sure Linux would get a bump in popularity by the average person if it led to a dip in their PC/laptop's overall price.

    I was trying to make a joke about Linux users building computers out of mixed used components.

    It was a bad joke anyway
