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.

    Remember when W10 was going to be the last windows you'd ever need.

    [–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 161 points 5 months ago (1 children)

    Yes, it’s the last version of Windows I’ll ever need.

    [–] doingthestuff@lemmy.world 14 points 5 months ago (1 children)

    Yep, not moving on. I still have a lot of things to figure out though. Unfortunately windows is easier for a lot of things but I'm completely done.

    [–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 24 points 5 months ago (1 children)

    Oh, I meant I’m going to use a different OS after 10.

    This is linuxmemes after all...

    [–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 58 points 5 months ago

    To be fair, that is entirely accurate. It is the last windows I will ever need because I switched to linux.

    On released they didn't know yet how far they can push that telemetry shit down their users' throats. I bet, 11 is better optimized for that. And eventually, it'll be Win365 OSaaS anyway...

    Windows...optimized.

    It takes 4GB just to idle in windows 11.

    Why optimize when you can just mandate insane resources for your OS?

    I miss running XP on an system with 768MB of RAM and having enough left over to play Morrowind.

    I've never tried 10. 8 was all I needed to switch.

    [–] deathmetal27@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

    It was a pinky promise.

    It is.. for me
