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!

    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 fork-bomb your computer.

    That shit has so incompetent devs that they're updating the fucking .deb file instead of using the internal updater to push every update.

    An entire update used to be something worthy, now it's all worthless.

    That's all handled by Electron, which doesn't support the auto updater on Linux.

    https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/auto-updater https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/issues/1138

    Though I don't know if discord uses this specifically or rolls their own. Discord seems to auto update just fine until it's time for a bootstrap update.

    Ok but why so many bootstrap update when the most basic shit like "screen sharing with audio" is broken?

    There's a secret json option to disable bootstrap updates. The flatpak turns this on.
