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!

    Arch users HAVE to know a lot because their updates break it conatantly

    Honestly I've found it to be surprisingly stable, and the only time the system broke, it was my own fault.

    I’ve found it to be surprisingly stable

    It sounds like you have used it extensively then, because the myth is spread by people who never tried.

    Arch user here. I have no idea what I'm doing. Killing Floor just crashed my graphics card or something to crash and my monitors aren't working after reboots. Oh god

    Arch users HAVE to know

    They do know this is a popular myth spread around by the antiquities of debian/mint/ubuntu users who wait a few years for Arch users to locate any bugs.
