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!

    Windows just works if you uninstall all the ms crap.

    Does Windows count as "ms crap" ?

    I somewhat get the stance some have against Windows. I myself aren't to fond of Windows anymore and I'll gladly doge it (and its company) at every chance I get.

    HOWEVER, I understand that there's software or even hardware that won't and likely will never work on any other OS but Windows (even if it's only through market dominance).

    If ones use case is primarely for multi-player gaming then Windows (for most of these games) is the go to as for that aspect it offers the less painful way.

    Could some of those games be made to run on Linux? Sure but it's likely gonna be a pain all the way through (and will likely break with the next patch).

    Some might answer with "to avoid those games then", but realistically, many want to enjoy these titles, and they have every right to do so.

    TLDR: Windows is good at certain tasks, Linux is good at certain tasks. Use the tool that that fits your use case (tasks) the best, but still look over to the other side every onece in a while.
