  • 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!

    there’s problems like Libre Office

    A very simple problem that I absolutely hate in LibreOffice that I can't find a solution for. When typing in a formula in a spreadsheet and then trying to autocomplete it, you cannot use 'Tab'. If you want to do a vlookup and start typing "=vloo" and then hit 'Tab' it just changes to the next column. Working in Excel at work and then switching to Calc at home is jarring and terrible. That option can't be changed as far as I know. It's a complete dealbreaker for me between the two. Luckily I don't need to do much in my personal life on spreadsheets anymore or need to use my home PC for work like I used to.
