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.
  •

    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.

    Hi I'm some mf

    Day 1,095 of begging Autodesk to put F360 on Linux so I can ditch windows

    I know, they won't, but I'm gonna keep asking anyway

    Hey, same boat. I've tried FreeCAD and Ondsel (which is supposed to be a more intuitive version of FreeCAD)... But they are both so unintuitive that it drives me nuts and I just boot into Windows when i want to design something functional to 3D Print.

    Luckily Blender works great on Linux for less functional designs.

    Why are both of the USB drives red?

    [–] [email protected] 88 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    Because choice is an illusion.

    [–] [email protected] 26 points 1 month ago

    Both are Linux.

    [–] [email protected] 29 points 1 month ago (2 children)

    You take the green USB, it's Ventoy.
    You click the wrong option in the list, and suddenly it's GParted.

    Ah, shit, TempleOS.

    Yes, I have TempleOS on my drive, why not, it's just a few MB.

    How come with bsd it's more of a dig your own hole sort of adventure?

    People that chose the "red" drive ... Once you install Ubuntu a mysterious shaman will once again introduce you to the red and blue choice, ... well, I mean, not exactly, it will be just a giant bag of mixed ~~pills~~ drives for different distros and the ominous warning be like "you only really need to take one, but there is no actual limit".

    Until you find out about snap

    Linux Mint: The Better Ubuntu (tm)

    [–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (5 children)

    I found that Pop!_OS (another Ubuntu fork) worked better with Nvidia crap out of the box. They both seem pretty good.

    I cannot even download Windows 11 ISO on my network, I am (my ISP is) blocked by Microsoft. So, problem solved, it's just red USB.

    [–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)
    [–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (3 children)

    Microsoft blocks people from downloading stuff all the time for unknowable reasons. You have to either reset your IP or go through customer support to fix it. I did the latter and they did not tell me why I was blocked in the first place.

    Take the red USB and it always ends with you deep in a forum and the terminal app.

    That red USB looks exactly like my Linux installer one, recently upgraded to Mint 22!
