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
sudoin 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.

It comes with almost all new laptops, and a key you can easily find for 5€ online.
It is basically free for anyone, except businesses.
You can just buy the N version instead, which does not have any of the advertisement or bloatware, as instructed by the EU. But then you will have to pay a bit more.
You're still paying for it. The price is just hidden from you in the total of the laptop but you're still fucking buying it.
An OS shouldn't have ads. Period. Especially one that isn't free, enough with the idea that ads being everywhere (and the privacy violations that come with it) is fine or normal, it isn't and it shouldn't be.
