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 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
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • 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.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • Β 

    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 remove France.

    What a garbage.

    Just use Linux, SELinux, strong sandboxing, repositories, nonexecutable home directories, strong access control, offline backups.

    How about a testing environment separate from production

    I watched a ocean of computers go dead on the floor because I couldn't convince the sysadmin to do exactly that when pushing a major change.

    Any more details?

    This sounds like the setup to a fun story.

    Best I can do is push it worldwide on a Friday morning

    Yes. And time.

    We make a lot more money by testing in production, and let the users tell us what's wrong. It's much faster.

    We've successfully replaced the entire support team with an HTML form creating tickets for the one developer.

    Surefire way to receive that efficiency performance bonus.

    But how do I integrate everything into Microsoft 365 with that snazzy OneDrive feature? /s

    [–] jaybone@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

    You will escort us to sector zero zero one.

    Crowd strike did this to Linux in April.

    Pretty sure it's happened in Linux before, but because it's much less users, obviously it won't have same global outage like what happens now

    [–] boredsquirrel@slrpnk.net 1 points 10 months ago

    I mean, I run Fedora and ran many others and had multiple crashes.

    Fedora Atomic Desktops not anymore, but still not perfect.

    And log monitoring with off machine collections
