  • 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.

    Not sure Linux busts in like this. It just, sorta walks in like it owns the place. "Door was locked? It wasn't for me."

    Actual legit handy in my setup. I use some things on Windows but mainly drive openSUSE.

    Being able to just pluck whatever files I need from my windows drive is pretty dope.

    I hate the lack of Linux compatibility in windows, the one time I use windows and I need to access btrfs? Good fucking luck, most tools have astericks attached, "MIGHT CORRUPT YOUR DRIVE, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK"

    Windows: "There is something wrong with that weird drive I've just found. Do you want me format it to 'fix' it?"

    Me: "Alright Windows, your permission to exist on my computer has been revoked."

    There was a time when a Linux live CD could dominate a windows install like a porno. But then they started turning on full drive encryption and none of my tricks works anymore :(

    ntfs: hey, i got user passwords set up here!

    linux: really? never noticed.

    Thankfully they can still encrypt Bitlocker if you have the Password

    What image do you put for when you install the BTRFS driver in Windows (yes it's real and it works pretty well actually.)

    For extra unholy fuckery try installing Windows on the same partition as Linux, if you can load the driver that early. Edit: https://github.com/maharmstone/quibble it is possible. May God save our souls.

    [–] Dhs92@programming.dev 5 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

    I used to run that driver but sadly didn't want to go through the trouble of making it work with secure boot. It also had some weird issues with things like scrubbing and creating new volumes for me.

    [–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 5 points 7 hours ago

    Oh I never let Windows touch my partition table anyhow. That's a Linux job.

    [–] superweeniehutjrs@lemmy.world 18 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

    Windows accessing my other Windows installation's files corrupted my filesystem, how does that factor in?

    [–] LostXOR@fedia.io 37 points 12 hours ago

    Windows will sooner kill itself than learn how to play nice with others.

    I'm literally dealing with this shit now.
