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!

    Bold of you to assume you still get a desktop in between all the ads.

    [–] tpihkal@lemmy.world 40 points 3 months ago

    It should be off in a corner or something. Not front and center where it's blocking the main ad.

    [–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 28 points 3 months ago (2 children)

    Yeah, those ads are way to easy to ignore. Hopefully the working space randomly shifts tiles so your attention shifts periodically to the ads!

    And you get jingles every few minutes that you can't turn down or mute.

    Makes you sing and dance jingle into webcam.

    [–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    If you don't sing enthusiastically enough, your files are deleted.

    Bruh… don’t give them ideas

    [–] MumboJumbo@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    Not only does it move, but it gets covered by an ad and it has to track your eyeballs on that tile for 5 seconds before it reveals the desktop. That way, you spend a minute watching ads looking for the real desktop.

    You a m$ employee??

    Yeah, as if the desktop was the product

    [–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    If you use Windows, you are the product.

    @Diplomjodler3 @Ophioparma finished building my PC proceeded with installing Windows 11. Realized my failure. Installed PopOS. Life is so much better now.
