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.

    I have yet to see a person that uses an AV on his Linix install.

    Has it found anything that can run on Linux?

    [–] PrettyFlyForAFatGuy@feddit.uk 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

    it's picked some stuff out of my proton prefixes. but i think those were false positives

    [–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 months ago

    Yeah, fasle positives.

    [–] Allero@lemmy.today 4 points 8 months ago

    I have a virus on my pc. It's called Arch Linux. I love how they brought over one of the most prominent features from windows: system degradation over time. Not every Arch issue can actually be solved without a reinstall unless you're one of the top percentile Linux gurus that understands everything there is to know.

    Seriously. Even Gentoo works better after 3 years of use than an Arch Linux installation.
