1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • 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, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache

    The one that's put out when Elon buys the Linux Foundation.

    Manjaro, easy choice.

    Ironically it's probably Suckless.

    Red Star anybody?

    There was a Windows tablet I bought for PDFs only. It ran some terrible Windows 8 lite version. That would easily be the worst Linux distro.

    Windows RT. What a pile.

    It'll randomly doze off whenever you don't look at it for 5 seconds, tho.

    [–] blindbunny@lemmy.ml 25 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

    Damn I really can't argue with that. The developer is a prick

    [–] WindyRebel@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

    Can someone seriously type with their penis? Impressive!

    [–] blindbunny@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 hours ago

    When you watch it's really not that impressive.

    Apparently it's Athena Linux. At least, that's what the hackable vacuums use.

    most honest privacy policy.

    [–] Jolteon@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 hours ago

    Is there even a place on the website that asks for that information?

    [–] nailbar@sopuli.xyz 3 points 7 hours ago

    Well now I'm even more conflicted about sending them my email!

    Similar to a joke my dad told in the 90's

    If Microsoft ever makes a product that doesn't suck, it'll be a vacuum cleaner.

    Our roborock robot vacuum runs Ubuntu (I'm not joking)

    [–] RobotToaster@mander.xyz 212 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (5 children)

    Oracle linux, just tell them your carpet has an unlicensed database.

    [–] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 71 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

    I was invited to a user group where oracle Linux was trying to get more adopters. The coolest thing they had was the ability to update a kernel driver while it was running. In place. Without downtime.

    I asked them if they planned on pushing this improvement to the kernel devs and they just gave me a blank face.

    Told me everything I needed to know about Oracle Linux. I promptly formatted the thumb drive they gave me for free.

    [–] Mac@mander.xyz 2 points 7 hours ago

    All of our testing cells at work run Oracle!
    I don't know much about it though.

    [–] DannyBoy@sh.itjust.works 16 points 19 hours ago

    If they released it for free then Ubuntu wouldn't have Ubuntu Pro to sell subscriptions to.

    the one you, the reader, uses

    [–] yonder@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 hours ago

    Ironically, I'm reading this from PostmarketOS, which has support for the echo dot 2, feature phones and some smartwatches, so it might be realistic to run on a vacum lol.

    [–] NONE_dc@lemmy.world 23 points 20 hours ago

    Now this turned meta-referencial really quick.

    [–] SpatchyIsOnline@lemmy.world 32 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

    ... My vacuum actually does run Linux.

    !It's a roborock with Valetudo installed so it doesn't need internet access!<

    [–] TrenchcoatFullofBats@belfry.rip 16 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

    There are dozens of us! Mine is a Dreame D9 with a custom GLaDOS voice pack that I can change by updating a CVS file.

    All of them except Hannah Montana Linux, which is the One True Linux.

    [–] thisbenzingring@lemmy.sdf.org 44 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

    TempleOS is the one TRUE OS

    [–] ebolapie@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

    TempleOS is God's chosen OS, but I don't live at church. I use TempleOS to pray, and Hannah Montana Linux for personal tasks. That way I get the best of both worlds.

    [–] andros_rex@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

    But it isn’t Linux.

    Manjaro might be good, but you'll have to adjust the vacuum's clock every time you want to clean

    [–] barnaclebutt@lemmy.world 24 points 20 hours ago (12 children)

    RHEL because the best Linux is the one you pay for.
