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.
  • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 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

  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.

    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 remove France.

    Opensuse without knowing that it was Linux 20 years ago. Knowing was 3 years later with Mandrake.

    SuSE linux 4.2 about 1994-6 ish? Fond memories of having to roll my own modelines to get crt monitors working. Used the various versions until the sell out to Novell and the controversy with Microsoft. Then a really big gap with some macs and now I’ve just started using Mint on a mini itx machine I’ve put together just for that use.

    Opensuse ca. 18 to 16 years ago

    Ubuntu on an orangepi 5 when it released, now Linux Mint dual-booted to windows (haven't booted into windows for ages now) on my main rig. I'll figure out making VR work at some point I hope, it's all I really use windows for now.

    is he forcing her to look at the screen?

    [–] Waffelson@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

    No, she imagines how an actor whom she asked to say vulgar words on a dictaphone strokes her head, in reality she strokes her head with her hand, which the actor was holding

    I attempted to boot Mandrake/Mandrivia on an old laptop once and failed, then I mucked around in Slackware's live CD for an afternoon. The first thing I actually installed and used daily was Ubuntu 10.04.

    Tried Redhat in the late 90s, but I really started using Linux with Mandrake, a few years later.

    Why do I not see any pop os comments... My first was (and is) pop os

    [–] Emi@ani.social 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

    Think it was pop OS because "gaming" but never really had Linux as main os on my pc because gaming and modding and few other things that are just more complicated compared to what I'm used to. Being told to just use arch also does not help when I don't want to use terminal. And also don't know if you can run vr on Linux without problems. Current have installed mint on second drive(HDD) will start looking more into Linux when windows 10 stops getting support. But I'm a noob so what do I know.

    @Waffelson First effort was Corel Linux back in 1999. The experience was so bad that I didn't try linux again until 2008, and it finally stuck 6 years ago. Now i'm all in.

    Some 10+ year old Ubuntu version probably. Before Unity so 10.04 maybe. Can't say

    [–] PopcornTin@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

    Several floppies of Slackware.
